Visiting the historic Saltram House, near Plymouth, I was awed by the sight of a row of women working on the restoration of an antique carpet. They sat patiently, completely focused on their delicate work – a silent row of Weaving Mothers. This is an old Axminster carpet and can only be mended by those with the finest skills. The project will take over a year to complete.
