  1. Hi Peter,

    We were in the Cathedral the other day and specially visited the tapestry, it really did look stunning. Andy and i were talking about it and wondered if you could use the work you have done in summarising the 30 articles of the declaration in the weekly emails to produce something similar to accompany the tapestry. People can then read the detail and understand the significance of the art work in each panel. (Some art works are more obvious than others!)

    Thank you for all the work emailing them out it really is worth publicising this art work.

    Best wishes and Happy New Year
