Like a river flows surely to the sea, as a tapestry is actually an embroidery, we’re having a format change. This week Hannah and Nicola look at the women who created the most famous fabric art in world history, the women on the most famous fabric art in world history and the story in it. There will be Williams who conquer, Edwards who confess, and Harolds who get hit in the eye with an arrow….or was he?
