STITCHING THE TAPESTRY OF THE HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS

This audio forms part of a series of audio interviews conducted in 2023 by Smartify as part of the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands project. Listen and discover the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands through the eyes of the stitchers of the Tapestry of the Highlands and Islands.

Join Susan of the Oh Sew Mull Stitchers as she discusses the story of her group's panel and stitching icons of the natural and cultural heritage of the island to build a earth to sky picture of the Isle of Mull.

...We've got about 18 pebbles which surround the eagle and we've chosen images that we think really represent the history, the culture and the landscape of Mull...it looks like a picture of Mull behind the eagle in front of it.
