See how tapestry weaving works in this short video. Nadia Yaron demonstrates three types of tapestry joins in her Brooklyn storefront studio, Nightwood. What differentiates tapestry weaving from plain weaving is that in a tapestry, the weaver changes weft threads at will as she weaves them across the piece. By doing this, she can create patterns and images on the surface of the weaving. This tapestry took about 12 hours total to weave. About this series: Design Dictionary is a new Cooper Hewitt

✨DIY Tapestry✨ I wanted a tapestry from Anthropologie but it was too big for my space, so instead I made my own custom sized tapestry using some free art I downloaded, fabric, and a modge podge image transfer. I saved the details in my stories as I know you all are going to want to make this! What do you think, does it look like the real deal? | Erin Zubot Design
