The Embroiderers' Guild annual De Denne Bursary Awards are always difficult to judge, with so many colourful, exciting and original entries from Young Embroiderers members and groups all over the UK and beyond. These were the winning entries for the theme 'Bags, Bracelets and Belts' - we hope you enjoy them as much as we have. The bursary fund was set up in memory of Lynette de Denne, who founded the Young Embroiderers. You can read more about that on our history . Click on the images to see them in more detail.
