Hasty in Hastings - once more in pictures

[faustus]

Further discoveries: Bayeux Tapestry wasn't stitched in Bayeux, nor is it a tapestry. Harold had Harold killed at the Battle Rumble at Stamford Bridge - with an arrow. Perhaps they got the wrong one. The surviving Harold was then killed with presumably a different arrow at the Battle of Battle. However, this is apparently unlikely (although see the Magic Arrow theory), an early modern addition (or stitch-up) and part of the missing seven yards of the Bayeux Tapestry Canterbury Embroidery may have depicted a grassy knoll and a smoking gun (cf the Zaepruda Tapestry).

But this much we know:

lol, every time someone starts on about returning the Elgin Marbles, I start jumping up and down and yelling, "what about our tapestry!". It's not a tapestry?

H'interesting photos!

Thank you.

Apparently it's cross-stitching an embroidery. Threads stitched through linen rather than woven threads on a loom.

I wonder if they've ever done Bayeux Fortnightly, stitch your own in 70 bi-weekly parts?

Lol, a Sew Your Own Battle partwork would be awesome!
