1 of a few.... A Virtuous Woman is a participatory textile artwork, now open for you to make your choice @NThardwick This new artwork is inspired by Bess of Hardwick's monumental Ancient Noblewomen embroideries which she used to show her visitors what her virtues and values were

, through the stories of the five women they featured. Visitors to Hardwick Hall can now choose their own "Virtuous Woman" - any woman or girl who you admire, who inspires you or whom you align yourself with. Embroider their name, and have your choice immortalised on the dress
