National Needlework Archive
The National Needlework Archive, located in The Old Chapel Textile Centre at Greenham Business Park, Newbury, is dedicated to preserving and promoting the art of needlecraft and textiles. This charitable organisation offers a variety of courses, workshops, and exhibitions focused on sewing, embroidery, quilting, and textile art, while also housing a significant archive of historic textiles and patterns.
In addition to its extensive range of needlework supplies available in the shop, the Archive features the renowned Country Wife mural, created in the 1951 Festival of Britain. The Old Chapel serves as both an educational space and a community hub, welcoming all to engage with the rich heritage of textile arts. Generated from the website
