My mother in law has been a weaver for as long as I've known her. Her loom takes up a room in the house of my in laws.
On my last visit I did this series of pictures. Hopefully they show what a complicated piece of equipment the loom is and also the immense work is is to weave the larger projects that she makes.
Over the years the has woven carpets, clothing and even unique projects such as a chasuble for a church in my home town Aarhus, Denmark
Above the alter hangs the Crucifix which was designed by the architects for the 2005 restoration of the Cathedral and was made in the same studio in Madrid as the Tabernacle. The design of the Crucifix is reflected in the panel above the Bishop's chair, or Cathedra. This is the symbol of the unity of the Diocese under the pastoral care of the Bishop and it's from this that the word Cathedral comes from. This "chair" in St.Peter's was first used by Bishop Patrick Dorrian who was Bishop of Down & Connor from 1865-1885.
The Altar and the Ambo are both of limestone and were carved by Ken Thompson of Cork. The front of the Altar depicts Christ with the Apostles at the Last Supper, but unusually the artist has carved Christ with pierced hands in anticipation of the crucifixion. To mark the dedication of this Altar and the reopening of the Cathedral after restoration on 6-2-05 a chalice was presented on behalf of Pope John Paul II as a sign of his pastoral affection and unity with the Diocese of Down & Connor. The floor of the sanctuary is of artistic mosaic created by Sergio Bendetti.
