Stitched: Scotland's Embroidered Art is an exhibition at Dovecot Studios in Edinburgh which features a collection of beautiful embroidered artworks.

As a result of a two-year research and conservation programme by the National Trust for Scotland, many of these pieces are now in a condition to be on public display for the first time.

There is a descriptive gallery tour for blind and partially sighted visitors on Wednesday 18th January, and Amelia spoke to Emma Inglis from the National Trust for Scotland and Elinor Brown from Dovecot Studios to learn more.
