Once ideas and images come to mind, the next step in weaving your tapestry--interpreting these into effective compositions--may be challenging. Learn here, in ways that relate specifically to tapestry art, the design basics you need to make your best work.
  • A master weaver offers more than 60 step-by-step explorations that lead you from understanding design concepts in your head to using them on your loom.
  • Be inspired to explore weavable ways to manage line, shape, color, texture, emphasis, balance, rhythm, and more for results that bring your tapestries to a new level.
  • In Part 1, dive into the fundamentals of design.
  • Parts 2 and 3 hold explorations--exercises with a tapestry twist.
  • Part 4 teaches ways to turn designs into cartoons.

A resource treasure trove offers ideas for finishing tapestries (essential to the design's completeness), helpful templates, glossaries, and other core information to carry forward on your creative path.
