For centuries, these textile masterpieces have hung on the walls of famous buildings, homes, and galleries, gracing the space with colour, texture, and warmth.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-short lessmore\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"readmore\" href=\"#\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRead More\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-full\"\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nToday, they’re very much a part of modern fibre art, providing a unique handmade touch to interiors.

Start with the right equipment.\n \u003c\/h3\u003e\n \n \u003cp\u003e\n Tapestry weaving is a special craft that requires dedication, time, and the right equipment. Your unique artistic imprint will stay within the fibres long after it’s hanging on the walls of galleries, friends, or clients; free to be admired by all who set their eyes upon it.\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n \u003cp\u003e\n The first foundation for tapestry loom weaving is having the right equipment on hand. 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. While it’s possible to use a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/collections\/table-looms\"\u003etable loom\u003c\/a\u003e like one of our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/collections\/rigid-heddle-looms\"\u003erigid heddles\u003c\/a\u003e for this purpose - they are versatile and offer plenty of options - it isn’t ideal. We recommend purchasing a dedicated tapestry frame or loom for these large artworks, on which you can comfortably weave at your leisure.\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n \u003cp\u003e\n Our tapestry collection contains specially sourced supplies that are tailored to the art of textile wall hangings.
