They always say that
nobody does the Pomp and Ceremonial like we do here in the UK and once again we
pulled it out of the bag.
Despite the weather, people for all across the UK and the world camped out along the route from Buckenham Palace to Westminster Abbey, so they wouldn’t miss any of the spectacle, that was the first UK coronation in more than 70 years.
I
wanted to stitch something to commemorate King Charles III’s coronation, whilst
I was watching all the ceremonial on the TV on the 6th May, and I settled on a PDF of the emblem
that I downloaded from WllmsCo, on Etsy.
I’ve used some 32ct Belfast Linen in Antique White, that I had in my stash and I’m stitching with DMC in 321 and 820 and was making good progress until I run out of the Red, and had to wait for a delivery from The Patchwork Rabbit.
I've also been playing chicken with my fabric on the right hand side because I didn’t get it in the centre when I started it. It’s so, so close to the edge, but my plan is to make it into a little mat to go into the bottom of a tin I have, so fingers crossed I have just enough to turn a small hem.
I also have a couple of smaller charts that I want to stitch that will also live in the tin.
Happy Stitching!
