    Great weaving! I am glad they taught you proper techniques, I see so many tapestry techniques done wrong and it makes weaving more difficult. Local guilds and yarn shops can be excellent resources. Peter collingwood’s rug books are online and free, you can use weft faced weaving techniques in your future weaving. You should try weaving cloth on a floor loom. It so addictive. You can also sew with your tapestry fabric.

    Hi Wendy, this is a really amazing outcome, especially for a beginner, and I love it! It looks like a landscape with fields and bushes and a little house in the middle which has a black and white roof.
    It is not too narrow at the top, my first little carpet had a very lean "waist", just like an hourglass 😉 no, not really, but quite a lot. Definitely more than yours!
    To prevent it you just have to keep the ends a little bit looser.

    That looks great! Now I feel inspired to try tapestry! I’d like to make a play mat for my kinder kids, using that loopy one to create bushes!
