Which fabric is described as having a textured filament warp and textured filament and spun filling, with a jacquard weave and yarn dyed?

• A. Bird's eye pique
• B. Brocade
• C. Eye pique
• D. Tapestry

Answer: (D)

Fabrics described as having a textured warp made of filament yarns and a filling that combines textured filament with spun yarn, woven on a jacquard loom and yarn-dyed, point to a tapestry. The jacquard weave lets the loom place lots of different yarns and textures exactly where the design requires, creating a rich, multi-layered surface. Using textured filament in the warp adds depth and a tactile, ridged feel, while mixing textured filament and spun fibers in the filling enhances the surface with variation in both texture and color. Being yarn-dyed means the colors come from dyed yarns rather than prints, giving the complex, painterly look tapestry fabrics are known for. This combination aligns with tapestry’s characteristic heavy, decorative, multicolored woven patterns, unlike the small, repeated motifs of eye or bird’s-eye pique or the more uniform, float-based patterns of brocade.
