Textile Culture RSS Feed

Textiles are a major component of material culture. Textile craft and textile design have always had a significant social, cultural and economic impact on both individuals and societies. The cultural heritage of textiles does not end with preservation and collection of costumes and other textiles in museums. It included living traditions inherited from our ancestors and passed on to our descendants, knowledge, and skills to produce traditional crafts, and the language and terminologies used to describe both the activities and the material outcomes.
