> Now that you've whetted my curiosity, what are you planning to make? I wanted to try my hand at making tabletwoven piled fabric.
But I've been dying to try making velvet ever since I saw a workshop producing some in Japan last year. This would mean being able to reproduce voided velvets of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, with different colours for the pile and ground, and even some brocaded parts throughout. I'm mainly interested in making samples of the stuff - weaving enough for a gown would simply be crazy, in terms of time spent making it! :-) _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
