Edinburgh Fringe: A Tapestry of Many Threads by Alexander McCall Smith and Tom Cunningham

David Smythe, 4th August

In Scotland, the world of tapestry has been emerging in an exciting revival, bringing this too often overlooked art form into focus. In 2010 the 104-metre Prestonpans tapestry of embroidered panels was unveiled, celebrating the journey 25-year-old Bonnie Prince Charlie made from France, then through the Scottish Highlands to victory at the Scottish town of Prestonpans.
