Stiching Up the 1916 Tapestry Proclamation – Over Half Way There

The 1916 Proclamation is being stitched up, but in a very craft(y) way by the Blanchardstown Branch of the Irish Countrywomen’s Association for the Easter Rising extension to the 1913 Lockout Tapestry. This will also be used in the Liberty Hall Wrap to mark the Centenary of the Rising and the publication of the 1916 Proclamation.

The stitchers are Theresa Brennan, who was taught by Irish Citizen Army veteran, Margaret Skinnider, Dorothy Sheridan, Maureen Caffrey, Marie O’Neill and Joan Greene
