AnswerThe Bayeux Tapestry is a long, strip of cloth with depictions of the events leading up to the Battle of Hastings in 1066, and of the battle itself, in which William, Duke of Normandy (William the Conqueror) defeated King Harold and became King William I of England.It is roughly 20 inches high and over 200 feet in length and the story is told in pictures with captions in Latin - a kind of medieval cartoon strip.Strictly speaking it is not a tapestry, as the words and pictures are embroidered onto the cloth.It is made about the year 1077 and is thought that William the Conqueror's half brother, Bishop Odo, ordered it to be made.The original "Tapestry" can be seen in a special museum in Bayeux, France, and there is a copy of it, made in the 1880's, in the Museum of Reading, in Reading, Berkshire in England.

How did native Americans use embroidery?
That depends on what you mean by "embroidery". The literal English meaning is sewing coloured silks, wools or other threads to a linen backing, exactly how the Bayeux tapestry was made - native Americans simply did not do that kind of embroidery. In North America they often used flattened and dyed porcupine quills stitched to tanned leather garments or bark containers using animal sinew threads. The quills were sorted by size and used according to the area to be covered; then they were soaked in water to make them supple before being dyed with vegetable dyes that produced yellow, orange, red and pale greens and blues. Other embroidery-style decoration was made with moosehair and shells before glass beads became available from white people. Some of the mossehair decoration was applied as "false embroidery" where it really forms part of a woven construction rather than being applied afterwards.
