Cross Stitch - tapestry/needlepoint


Expert: Vinette de Phillipe - 2/27/2008

Question
what is difference between tapestry and needlepoint (and cross stitch)?

Answer
hi Tessa,
tapestry is a woven type of needlework made on a loom

needlepoint is made using a canvas that you use different types of stitches.

cross stitch- there are two kinds

counted - where one follows a graph to make the picture.

stamped - where one follows a stamped design.

hope this helps
