Mappery For the love of maps

Tapestry of the World

This 6m x 2m tapestry map is hanging at Heathrow Airport – one more reason to want to fly out of the UK. Via Reinder Storm

Handmade from recycled wool, this tapestry of the #world is incredible; handmade by Vanessa Barragão, with ancestral techniques such as latch hook, crochet and felt. The piece took Barragão and her team more than 520 hours to weave.
