WHAT ARE TRAMMÉ TAPESTRIES

Tramming is a precise way of "printing" the design onto double canvas with horizontal tramme stitches using wool instead of paint. You are then provided with the matching wools to stitch over the design, ensuring the colours you see on the trammed design are what you finish with

The technique of tramming has been known since medieval times. Today the finest trammed tapesties come from Madiera. This industry is very much cottage based and as each design is hand worked, large quantities of each design are not usually available.

PLEASE NOTE: all tapestries on this web site are from Madiera
