Letter I

Hi Everybody! 
Another lovely set of tags last week for H.

I is for Illuminated letter.
For my I tag I have made an illuminated letter I using photos from Lindisfarne Priory, which were taken by C &G tutor Shelagh Folgate. I played around with them and coloured them in with gel pens. I knew I would never be able to copy the Celtic patterns myself, they are so complicated!
I would like to work from the photos to do an embroidered textile some day, as I think it would look good in embroidery.
