Workshop-boutique producing the famous Bayeux Tapestry using an ancestral embroidery technique dating back to the century.

The Bayeux Broderie James Chantal store is a unique place to discover and buy Bayeux stitch embroidery kits. This ancestral embroidery technique from the 11th century was used to create the famous Bayeux Tapestry. In addition to embroidery kits featuring the Bayeux Tapestry, the store also offers other embroidery motifs. Customers can make their purchases in-store and pay by credit card or cheque. Master craftswoman Chantal James’ boutique workshop is an exceptional place to learn and practice the art of embroidery. Embroidering in Bayeux stitch is not only a way of perpetuating a historic savoir-faire, but also of taking time out for yourself, relaxing and perhaps even offering your creations as gifts.

What a sweet shop! The owner is very knowledgeable and was showing me the linen she gets specially made and the wool she gets specially dyed for making bayeux style work.
Her kits are very nicely put together and there are ones that are parts of the bayeux tapestry and ones she has developed herself.
A tiny shop but lots of interesting things.
Does not take card so bring lots of cash or you'll regret not being able to buy everything ????

Edit: my mistake! Only that day was the card machine not working she does take card ????

J'ai acheté un kit dans cette boutique. La vendeuse de la boutique est une passionnée qui a bien pris le temps de m'expliquer le point de Bayeux. Le kit est bien fait.

Chantal James est passionnante et ayant déjà brodé 2 modèles je partage cette passion . Sa boutique bien que petite est pleine de trésors . Je suis repartie avec un nouveau kit que j’ai hâte de commencer.

En plus de proposer des produits de grande qualité, Madame James m'a accueilli avec gentillesse et professionnalisme.
Elle est artisan d'art et communique avec émotion sa passion.
Je vous recommande de passer par sa boutique après ou avant la visite de la tapisserie de Bayeux.

Je recherche une ancienne monitrice de bayeux qui s'appelle Brigitte rouselle si j'écris bien son nom qui fait de la broderie sur bayeux
