Revelation Threads

Monday, 13 June 2016

During half-term, Rev T and the Tubblet went to see Revelation Threads at St Albans Cathedral. An "exhibition of textile art created in response to the last book of the Bible, with the aim of retelling an extraordinary story. Raising issues of life and faith, good and evil, death and judgement, resurrection and a new Heaven and a new Earth".  The Fourteen panels took artist, Jacqui Parkinson, three years to complete.  Here are the pictures Rev T took.

If you would like to the panels yourself, they're touring various cathedrals.  These are stunning it's amazing that they're made of fabric and embroidery.  (Hemming and sewing on a button is my limit).

Hope you're having a lovely week.

    It's an incredible craft and labour of love. My aunt did similar work to restore works like this in her church.
