Cloth Wall Hangings

2010?  TH Wall Hanging.    Containing multi-fabric figures, French text, and frame.  From Treshurz2, Warren, MI, Feb., ’21.

This piece invites, I believe, two particular kinds of fun.  First, there are the two main characters, hare with his cap and shorts, and tortoise with her scarf and quilted body.  Then there is the little surprise of a similarly multi-fabric butterfly playing with the hare.  A fable like this is enchanting

  

2023?  Wall hanging: The Bayeux Tapestry.  40" x 50".  100% polyester.  $50 from Judaicaman: Joshua Jacobovitz, Shilo, Israel, Dec., '24.

Though the Bayeux Tapestry is fascinating and a good source for fable illustrations, this copy is disappointing.  One would have to look very hard to find those fables and then to recognize them as fables.  The advertisement says "Great to snuggle in or hang up in your den."
