Hanging it
A square piece, it works above a console, in a study, or facing you in an entryway. The back has no sleeve or rod pocket. Hook-and-loop tape sewn to the top edge and its partner on a slim wooden batten will hold it flat. A clip rail or a tailor-made casing also work.
Small birds, placed by eye
The weaver scatters the birds through the branches freehand, so their spacing is never quite regular. Plant-dyed wool and a signature in the weave finish this square bird tapestry.
