    I'm interested in learning tapestry weaving. How many hours is the 'weaving tapestry on little looms' course, please?

    The course is quite comprehensive. I don't know how many hours it would take you to do the course. On quick count it looks like there are 38 videos in the course. Some you won't need to watch, some you might watch more than once. The courses are available as long as you want and are a great reference.

    Rebecca. I have a question. You mention that the Summer of Tapestry pieces tend to be about simplification. This piece about the Adobe doors appears to be a visual simplification yet the execution seems to be relatively complex with the color blending, use of crapo, etc? Is this more complex that most of the Summer of Tapestry pieces? Just curious.

  • @RebeccaMezoffTapestry
    @RebeccaMezoffTapestryАй бұрын

    Hi Carol, there are no rules. This practice is mine and some of my pieces are more complicated than others. In the Summer of Tapestry class I encourage people to keep things simpler because in my experience, people tend to try to weave far beyond their abilities in small spaces and then they get frustrated. My examples are mine and are at my ability level, but other people will weave far simpler things... and a LOT of my examples in the class over the years have been dead simple. Sometimes stripes or single colors. Every weaver has to make their own way.

    Wondering if I need a mirrix loom for Summer of Weaving class? I’m thinking of buying a sketchloom and adapting it for fringeless technique? Thoughts about that?

  • @RebeccaMezoffTapestry
    @RebeccaMezoffTapestryАй бұрын

    Oh definitely not. A lot of people use Mirrix looms but I never require any specific loom in any class. Sketchlooms are great for Summer of Tapestry. I don't think thehy'll work for Fringeless--they're not sturdy enough and peg looms just aren't great for this technique. A pipe loom you make yourself is excellent and we teach you how to make several different kinds in that class (Fringeless). Any tapestry loom is fine for Summer of Tapestry.

    Hello. I'm considering a small tapestry loom. I've looked at the Saffron, mainly because of tension control for the warp threads. This Hokett is very appealing, as well. I'm thinking that since a small tapestry won't be on the loom for very long, maybe I don't have to worry about losing tension so much. What's your opinion?

  • @RebeccaMezoffTapestry
    @RebeccaMezoffTapestry2 ай бұрын

    Hokett looms are no longer available, but lots of people make similar ones. Lost Pond makes a sweet little sturdy loom called the Minnow that I like. Peg looms work fine with smaller pieces but I always recommend you use cotton seine twine warp. The stuff made by Bockens is great. I talk about all of this in my online classes. Intro to Tapestry weaving is a good start. rebeccamezoff.com/introduction-to-tapestry-weaving
