Enjoy a glass of Prosecco under the gaze of the Kings.\nSeven Kings\, including the first “Kings of England” are traditionally thought to have been crowned at Kingston Upon Thames. Before All Saints Church was built\, the site was an important estate of the West Saxon Kings and host to Royal coronations. Our talk will tell this significant heritage story through the series of seven spectacular and unique embroidery panels (four of which are currently displayed) touching on the Saxon history of the area\, the reigns of the Kings and characters depicted\, and the incredible talent that has gone into the design and execution of the panels themselves.\nEmbroidery panels have a long tradition of being used as symbols of power or to tell a story to enforce a message. Such works can be found in the great houses of the nobility or wealthy merchants\, royal palaces and of course\, in churches. Join us as we delve into these amazing works of textile art.\nThe panels are being created by award winning contemporary embroiderer Jacky Puzey\, based on an original design by Sophia Pearson. Jacky’s speciality of machine embroidery is further embellished with hand embroidery and beading by Beatrice Mayfield\, contemporary hand embroiderer and visiting lecturer at the Royal School of Needlework.\nOur embroideries headlined an edition of the national “embroidery magazine”.
