<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 9831225, member: 8267"]Tapestries are often thought of only in terms of large pictorial weavings. But the technique used to weave your small piece is the same technique as used in larger tapestries. I agree that it might be a sort of sampler - a (perhaps) novice weaver trying out a variety of methods and patterns. Wool would be the traditional fiber, but it is not possible to tell from photographs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
