The Liverpool Tapestry:
People, Places and Passions
“
I came to the ’08 Tapestry as a helper, giving out wools and
serving tea and coffee. I soon got caught up in the excitement of
the project and decided to stitch my own bit of Liverpool. The idea
came quickly but the actual stitching was slower. I did hand it in on
time, just.
I have worked with textiles for a number of years but this was my
first piece of canvas work. I chose to show a view of the sunset
down my road, as viewed from our bedroom window. To me it is a
reminder that everyday life in the city holds moments of profound
beauty, if you take the time to stop and look.”
