The Tapestry of Scotland

Anne Covell was lucky enough to visit Edinburgh and while she was there took the opportunity to view the Tapestry of Scotland on display at the Scottish Parliament.
These are a few of the photographs she took to whet your appetite!

The embroidery looks stunning and it would be nice to view it so we will keep an eye open for where it will be displayed next.
Meanwhile you can find out more information about the tapestry on the following website
