Product Description
Discover the stories told through Tapestries and Textiles. Featuring six tapestries and textiles from around the world, this book explores different types of story, from Medieval legend in The Lady and the Unicorn to biblical tale in Harriet Powers' bible quilt. Each tapestry and textile is looked at in detail, and a more general introduction to the medium provides a historical context. Step-by-step projects encourage young people to create their own masterpieces, using the techniques of the artform.
