I have acquired a loom

This is a square-rigged sail which I have woven from handspun linen from my own flock, and embroidered with a regal peacock in the style of the masters of tapestry in 15th century Flanders.

It is many a long century since we have seen textiles of this quality and fineness.  Everybody who has seen my fine handiwork exclaims in astonishment at its beauty.

  1. That peacock is magnificent. If I could go back in time and make my family's crest, that peacock would be front and center.
