Tapestries by my Mother... Tapeçarias feitas pela minha Mãe...

My mother Antonietta wove beautiful tapestries that adorn the walls and tables of my house. My mother was a very creative and talented wool weaver and teacher too. She confectioned so beautiful wall tapestries, rugs, table runners, scarves, ponchos, blankets, bags and so on. She was adorable and had fairy hands!
Minha mãe Antonietta teceu lindas tapeçarias que enfeitam as paredes e mesas da minha casa. Minha mãe foi uma tecelã muito criativa e talentosa e também professora de tear manual. Ela confeccionou lindos panôs, tapetes, centros de mesa, cachecóis, ponchos, mantas, bolsas e muito mais. Ela era adorável e tinha mãos de fada!

Weaving is an ancient textile art and craft that involves placing two sets of threads or yarn made of fiber called the warp and weft of the loom and turning them into cloth. This cloth can be plain (in one color or a simple pattern), or it can be woven in decorative or artistic designs, including tapestries.

On the wall is a piece of tapestry from Peru.

The Republic of Peru is a country in western South America, bordering Ecuador and Colombia to the north, Brazil to the east, Bolivia to the east, south-east and south, Chile to the south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Known as the cradle of the Inca empire, Peru is rich in people, culture and history.
