A six-page outline handout by Susan S. Hodges presenting three approaches to designing tapestry: designing directly on the loom with improvised frames, designing row by row using graph paper and rug-style techniques, and designing off the loom with a cartoon. It covers loom and yarn choices, warping a picture frame loom, headings, joining techniques for color areas, laid-in (brocade) methods, and composition guidelines. It ends with a bibliography of weaving books and related Shuttle, Spindle & Dyepot articles.
