SCHOOLGIRL Lily Hope’s drawing is to become a piece of royal memorabilia after she won our great Jubilee Tea Towel competition to celebrate 70 years of the Queen’s reign.
Talented Lily, 11, drew her picture of Her Majesty with one of her beloved corgi dogs after her uncle saw our contest in The Sun on Sunday.
The drawing was picked by our panel of judges to be printed on 500 limited-edition collectable tea towels by London company Bags Of Ethics in its award-winning factory Supreme Creations.
Lily, from Uldale, Cumbria, cannot wait to get hold of one in time for a Jubilee street party she will enjoy alongside her mum Kelly, 35, an NHS home-care practitioner, dad Ashley, 37, a farmer, sister Holly, eight, and three-year-old brother Joey.
Lily says: “My great uncle Brian knows I love the royals and I love drawing.
"So when he saw the competition, he told me all about it.
