Yes, the Summer Solstice Collection is LIVE on my website! (finally, haha!)I have 4 tapestries that are part of this collection - 2 small ones, 2 large ones, so there are various price points.They will be 20% off for 1 month, until 14 February (Australian time).Also, don’t forget I have Afterpay available on my website, to it easier from a budgeting perspective :DI will tell you more about each one, but let me know which is your favourite!

The word ‘tapestry’ gets misused a LOTTapestry is hand woven, and made on a loom - it’s a fabric made from scratch.If you are stitching on top of another fabric, it is needlepoint, not tapestry.Lately I have seen younger people use term tapestry for crochet and quilting - WTF????I did a whole YouTube video about tapestry vs needlepoint - you can find it HERE :)
