Course Description
Textiles may seem like accessories or the last design elements to purchase but they're actually the opposite. They can serve as the inspiration for the space, providing a color palette upon which to build the room.
Explore the history of textiles, their role, use and application. Also learn to work with repeating patterns, railroaded fabrics and textile suppliers.

the quiz at the end of each session is a good thing to check comprehension of the chapter being learned. The content of each chapter is truly informative.

I am a self taught felter and textile artist. I like learning about the different fabrics. I want to contact you to learn about fabric art design.

Probably great for designers, but as a homeowner, I was looking for something with action items - fabric matching, etc.
By Lindsay Nave on 1/22/2021
Some of the PowerPoint slides had a lot of information and it was harder to read. Otherwise, great course!! Thank you!
