The Liverpool Tapestry:
People, Places and Passions

“
As I sit here in this beautiful tranquil place I remember the local
people who worked so hard to save and restore this stunning
building. It can be a place of peace and tranquillity and it can be full
of music, fun and laughter. It has resounded to the sound of jazz,
classical, harmony singers, madrigals, opera, tea dances and salsa.
There is something for everyone to enjoy.
This magical place has the ability to lift my spirits the minute I
glimpse it gleaming through the trees. The local inhabitants, who
led the restoration campaign, must be incredibly proud, and I thank
them for enabling me to enjoy its peaceful splendour.”
“
I joined the Tapestry project after my Support Worker suggested
it to me as I am fond of cross stitch. [Philomena has Down’s
Syndrome, but lives independently.] I have been doing cross stitch
for a number of years and decided for my first piece to do a
Superlambanana in my favourite colours.”
