 On the 15th anniversary of the official opening of the Scottish Parliament, the great tapestry of Scotland has once more returned to Holyrood. To mark the occasion, a new panel, the People's Panel, was launched by the presiding officer Trisha Marwick. Under the watchful eye of Stitcher Mary Richardson, she inserted the first stitches in the new panel. The tapestry is back but there's something special about it and that is that we're introducing a People's Panel to allow the people of Scotland to come along to make a stitch and to be part of the tapestry and to be part of Scotland's own history. The great tapestry artist Andrew Crummy revealed his inspiration for the panel design. The idea of People's Panel emerged really based on a celebration of the Parliament building itself which is absolutely fantastic and the more I got to look at it and I got to see the architectural drawings and I got a big book about it and it just was I actually fell in love with the building, I thought the building is absolutely beautiful so it's really a celebration of the building and really what the Parliament stands for and its aspirations and about democracy so with the stitches in the middle of it stitching democracy. On completion, the new panel will hang in the Parliament as part of its permanent art collection. The rest of the great tapestry will remain on show in the public hall until the 13th of September.
