I think one of your crossing answers is wrong, as 27a is almost certainly RESPELL

And the most likely word for 21a is ABRADE. there are very few words fitting the pattern ???M?E

I think you have the right answers Zabadak. The clue for 22D is Hanging tapestry. I put down MURAL which is probably wrong

Looks like it's coming together, adn ARRAS is a good call. Anything more on what, if the space were bigger, would be decelerator?
