Hello everyone! I had planned to write to you all first thing this morning with the exciting news that we had reached 75% of our goal before I went to bed last night… but when I woke up, I saw that we are now at 77%! This is absolutely incredible—just 23% more to go!
Your generosity and support continue to amaze me, and I am beyond grateful for each and every one of you who has contributed to this restoration. Every single donation, big or small, is bringing us closer to making this dream a reality.
And the big moment is nearly here! On Wednesday, Emma Telford will be arriving at Mapperton to collect the Peacock Tapestry and take it to her workshop so the restoration can begin. Of course, I will be filming the entire process for Mapperton Live on YouTube, but as my amazing supporters, you will get the first look with some exclusive behind-the-scenes photos!
We are so close to the finish line—23% left to go! If you know anyone who would love to be part of history, please do share this with them. I can’t wait to update you all as we take this next exciting step!
With heartfelt gratitude,
Julie 💛
