Quick! What do you call these things? (details inside)

Depends how they’re made and what type of thread. Tapestry, or cross-stitch, or needlepoint.

(shhhh don’t tell anyone but I do cross-stitch)

Needlepoint?

Just us iPhone people hanging around.

Weaving?

I am on my netbook.

Aww guys, I want a name. What do you call the product of weaving/needlepoint/cross-stitch ?
Thanks!

Embroidered fabrics/embroidery .

@MilkyWay the products are just called the same name as the process. A piece of needlepoint, or a cross-stitch piece, or a tapestry. There isn’t a collective name for them (that I’m aware of). Textile art might cover all of them?

Oh, okay then :D
Thanks people!
I’ll just say textile art piece.

Quilts?

Nah, aren’t those like blankets?

Yes they are. People used to hang them on the walls as decoration and insulation.

Oh wow, I didn’t know that. That could come in handy, thanks :D

“Wall hanging” is a vague term that covers all textile art that hangs on a wall…

Quilting
Tapestry
Weaving
Needlepoint
Knitting
Crocheting
Hand-made lace
Braided rug
Hooking
Tatting
Embroidery

A ‘wall hanging’, of course.

Shit you hang on the walls.

@Hain_roo Not sure how you meant that?

Sorry, I was responding to the initial question, not quite sure how this site works yet…

@Hain_roo Ok Just relax, be yourself, and treat others well and this site will treat you well.

@Hain_roo Welcome to Fluther! @Adirondackwannabe said “GA” great answer
