Oh Penny well done, this is wonderful! I love the look of your tapestry and the pretty birds and flowers. =D>
Hi Penny.
I tried creating the Black & White Plasma repeating fill with 70% Transparency.
But, I couldn't get the same effect as you can.
:(
Rik, here's the .xar file. Hope that helps!

Yours looks so geometrical - like a grid. I also was not able to accomplish this until I looked at your xar file and see HOW small you have the plama scaled to. I thought surely that was it, but then I noticed that there is also a Live Effect on that shape (after seeing that it was colored yellow, I knew I wasn't looking at the right things - so I look in the page a layer gallery and I see the Live Effect - Painting there, inside that, the grid looking selected thing.
A little more digging - the "newsprint" preset seems to be it.
Hope this is helpful for those trying to reproduce the effect.
Love the detail Penny – right down to the hanger.

Hi Slavelle, Thanks for trying and your comments! I didn't use any Live Effects, tho you're right about the yellow....... I experimented with different colours for the plasma fill, and inadvertently posted the one using black/pale yellow. The final one was black/white - there is no noticible difference.......Penny
Penny - don't want to be argumentative, but I just downloaded the file you posted again to make sure that I didn't somehow mess it up. And there is definitely a live effect "painting" on there and when you remove it, you see the yellow plazma fill below.
Can someone factcheck me on this?
Hi Penny.
I've tried again and again to create a screen like yours - Fractal Plasma fill and I've pulled the handles in as far as I can to try and get the effect and changed the Transparency to 70% and so on.
But there is no way I can get the effect you have in your attached file.
:o
Any chance of a few detailed steps to get me going?!
Yes Scott is right, there is an LE 'Painting' effect applied.

It's easy to forget steps when you're concentrating, I've done it many times.
But you can get close to the weave effect using the plasma fill only by holding ctrl as you bring the fill handles in and playing with the start and end colours.
