Altar Cloth Progress Report #3

I just received these photos from Mrs. Szigethy's daughter; you will see that Mrs. Szigethy is making good progress!   When I last posted on February 25, she had just reached the middle of the piece.  She is now working her way down the right side..


These are some of the motifs leading up to the chalice in the middle...


This photo shows where she is at right now.  Can you see the design drawn on the fabric to the right of what has already been stitched?


Here's a look at nearly the entire piece so far.  An amazing piece of needlework...


I think I may have told you this already...this altar cloth is going to be added to Mrs. Szigethy's exhibit in Hövej.  The room next door was empty and they are working on it.  I imagine it will open sometime this summer.  I'm sure we will get to see a picture of the finished piece once it is displayed in this new room of the exhibit!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
