Altar cloths & inspiration





Here are a couple of pictures of the altar cloths that are usually hidden in the Cope chest at East Harling Church. They are truly beautiful and incredibly well preserved. Does anyone know their history? Who made them?

Hopefully, the one I'm making will be on view a little more frequently.
Here also are some inpiring embroideries I saw recently at an exhibition at Norwich Cathedral.

The world of ecclesiastical textiles is an amazing one.
