Grace L. Brumbaugh describes a 36 x 72 inch pictorial wall hanging, "A Renaissance Procession," woven on a four-harness rosepath threading rather than in true tapestry technique. She covers the design inspiration (the Palio of Siena, Gozzoli's Magi, Italian buildings), the two-treadle pattern tie-up with a binder, the yarns used, and the cartoon and bobbin methods. The scan also includes a Q&A column on calculating yarn quantities from linen and cotton counts, applying warp dressing, and sources for rug gauge-bars and knives.
