Tapestry is a fiber art form which is most often defined as a discontinuous weft-faced weave structure. It often uses this structure to depict an image. And often, though certainly not all the time, those images are part of two-dimensional art pieces meant to hang on a wall.

There are many kinds of looms that can be used to weave tapestry. Virtually any structure that can hold a set of warp threads in order and taut will work in some fashion. Kids weave them on cardboard boxes all the time.
