At the York Minster Broders we are just embarking on a new nave altar frontal, a green one, designed by Malcolm Lockhead. This last year we have been receiving the design in stages and have been sampling. Now we are framed up and the design has been transferred to the fabric.

Because the frame is so large and it is impossible to reach to the centre of it, we have to have people lying under the frame to push the needle back up - a bit of a slow job, especially if they get too comfortable and fall asleep!!
