From what I’ve been able to gather, [and there are few examples] there seems to be an actual truly distinct Anglo-Saxon ethnic embroidery style, blending Germanic serpents with Celtic foliage, into a uniquely English native motif.
In contrast with commonly seen Celtic knotwork, which is highly ‘mathematical’ and regular in form, the Anglo-Saxon style takes on a more loose and impromptu form, with a unique usage of a wide color palette, contrasting sharply with the bicolor ’pixelated’ style of much of the Balto-Slavic race’s embroidery. Added to this, more detailed and depictive natural images take primacy. This dual aspect of this art mirrors the dual nature of the Anglo-Saxon himself: the cheery informality of the Celt and the reserved introspection of the German.

Old Stock or Pioneer Stock Americans draw most of their heritage from both England and Lowland Scotland, both regions of ancient Anglo-Saxon settlement. During its time, the Revolution was viewed by some as the second wind of the Anglo-Saxon people, revolting against the occupied Norman crown of England. The first great Secession. The modern Old Stock American generally has added Gaelic Celtic and Norse ancestry from subsequent immigration, but remains a primarily North Sea Germanic stock. Dutch ancestry in settlers was more common during the colonial era but seems to have been absorbed into the Anglo stock. They are now found most heavily in the American South.
