An embroidery art installation created using more than a million stitches can be seen at Ripon Cathedral.
Following this year's successful Wing and a Prayer display featuring 10,000-plus origami angels, the cathedral is now hosting Jacqui Parkinson’s Tree of Life exhibition.
For this exhibition, three large stitched panels will be displayed at the cathedral until November 1.
Each panel has, at its centre theme, a tree representing pivotal moments in the Bible.
The installation is complemented by the sculpture Open Heaven, which is a life-size figure of Christ hanging from a ladder, which represents Jesus reaching towards heaven.
