A big round of applause for a bunch of crafty ladies who came to the rescue of the National Trust.
Women of the Culross Needlework Group had worked for two to three years to complete the task.
“The group is made up of about 10 retired ladies who give their time voluntarily and enjoy very much working on many types of embroidery,”
“The piece was worked, like the original, in separate panels. This enabled more people to work simultaneously on it. They were then joined together, the links matched and completed.
“The bottom frieze of the hunting scene was then produced as one.”
Falkland Palace property manager Karen Caldwell said, “It is an honour to add this stunning creation to the palace collection. We are in awe of the time, talent and dedication needed to create a work of this quality.
