For centuries, these textile masterpieces have hung on the walls of famous buildings, homes, and galleries, gracing the space with colour, texture, and warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, they’re very much a part of modern fibre art, providing a unique handmade touch to interiors. As a wall hanging, tapestries have a three dimensional quality that prints and other artworks simply cannot replicate - especially when made with the passion and signature of a skilled weaver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThread Collective makes it possible to produce these one-of-a-kind works anywhere within Australia.

It’s important to keep in mind that your piece will remain on the loom for some time as you weave it into existence. That means that the frame you’re working on won’t be free for other projects, likely for many months.
