Needlepointers love church kneelers and I have shared hundreds with you as I’ve visited the churches of the UK. They have been some of my most popular posts. They reflect the symbols of church, culture and history. Some are very humble and some are amazingly elaborate. We, as needlepointers, connect to these kneelers and their stitchers from decades ago and are always delighted to enter a church and find them.

Well, now I have my own! How did this kneeler get to an antique store in Raleigh NC? I’m so glad that I was in the right place at the right time to rescue it and bring it home.

This kneeler’s canvas was adapted to be used as an attractive foot stool. We see the Worcester Cathedral, the Guildhall, the Severn River, and the County Cricket Club. The shields are for the cathedral and the City of Worcester.

It has been Penny approved!
