In 1894 she established a Department of Embroidery at the Glasgow School of Art. The teaching there took a revolutionary new form.  Newbery wanted embroiderers to develop their originality and skills more intuitively by using simple images, materials and techniques.  She became one of the most influential members of the group of artists known as the Glasgow School. Her work shows many of the characteristics of their style. They used a more linear rather than curving version of Art Nouveau. Their designs now enjoy worldwide acclaim.\r\n\r\nThe collar is embroidered with a geometrical design and moths in mauve, green and brown silks, with green beads, linen appliqué, French knots, chain stitch, braid stitch, Cretan feather stitch, and laid and couched work. There are four buttonholes to attach it to the neckline of a blouse or dress.","physicalDescription":"Collar of embroidered linen with silks in grey-green and with a geometrical design and moths in shades of mauve, green and brown silks.
