Follow the development of ecclesiastical embroidery

Just wait till you see this! Ruth O’Leary writes in,

I’m a textile artist based in the North East of England, and on my blog I’m documenting the work involved in a commission I have recently won to make a processional banner for Durham Cathedral. This aims to replace a lost Medieval Opus Anglicanum original, and will use traditional techniques as far as practicable.

I hope that covering the process will give readers an insight into the work involved in embroidering a large-scale piece, as well as covering any other work I have in progress.

The posts so far are fascinating! Go see Ruth’s blog. And be sure to add it to your blog reader.
