Wonderful Piece of Tapestry Shown at Mrs Cox Home
A large crowd visited Mrs Lucy A Cox of South Main Street this week to view an heirloom tapestry depicting Esther exposing Haman. The 44K8 inch piece, created by Mrs Sarah Wevated, took four years and 690 stitches per square to complete. It will be shipped next week to Detroit to adorn ex-Congressman Corlink’s home. The scene centers on Esther at the Persian king’s banquet. The work, once intended for the Vermont exhibit, has rarely been seen publicly and remains bright after decades.
