We have been steadily stitching throughout the past year and
since our inauguration in October 2004 we have produced four
beautiful silk Aumbry curtains; re-made and mounted the
Mission banner; repaired the old Mothers Union Banner which
we then had framed and made a Sunday School Banner in
collage for which the poles will be purchased shortly. The Altar
Rail kneelers are being made to fit without having to make
new ones. The gold Altar cloth is being altered by Brindleys
of Wetherby to fit the new Altar and we hoping that they will
make the two-sided purple Altar cloth into two Altar Cloths,
one for Lent and one for Advent. These Altar cloths are far too
big for us to manage and the trimmings will be made into
Lectern falls and any other pieces which may be needed.


The red and green Altar cloth (seen in the picture) is being re-modelled by the makers, St Martin Vestment Ltd of Spalding. This is being organised by the generous donors of the cloth, Chris and Jenny Dunnett, whom many of you will remember. They were here in 1970s and 1980s and moved to Harrogate at the end of 1980s. They still keep in touch with St Mary's and have many friends in the Village. Their children designed the motifs and the cloth is being made into two separate ones by the makers.
