Tapestry: The Unicorn in Captivity

Our fifth graders are studying The Unicorn in Captivity tapestry series. They are learning about the different uses of this textile, commont themes represented in it, and methods of commisioning and producing it. As we continue this project, we will also employ the method of quilling, popularized during the Renaissance, to make tapestries of our own.
