Needlepoint (8)
I believe the answer is:
tapestry
'needlepoint' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for tapestry that I've seen before include "Complexity" , "Embroidered picture" , "Eg, arras, Gobelin" , "Decorative hanging" , "Embroidered wall hanging" .)
