Call me a heathen, but I always thought Hassocks was just a village in West Sussex - until I took a trip to Firle that is. Whilst having a wander around the village, my visiting Canadian pal Launa requested we take a look at St Peter's, Firle's 13th century village church. After opening the (very) heavy wooden door and stepping into that unique church stillness, I was struck by rows of colourful scenes cross-stitched into beautiful pew kneelers, giving the church a certain warmth despite the low temperature! Since that initial visit I returned, armed with a camera, as I couldn't resist recording some of my favourites. I also did a little research on them and, as well as finding an excellent database of kneelers recording many examples of this lovely craft, discovered that they're also referred to as 'Hassocks'.
