I was inspired to create this wall hanging after a visiting the magnificent gothic Lincoln Cathedral. I was fascinated by the intricate repeating patterns in the carvings on the pillars around the door and the vast number of arched niches covering the front of the building. I've adapted my design to look more like a town scape of small individual buildings rather than one single building. I've used different stitch pattern within some of the elements to represent the carved stonework and to give texture to the piece.
