Free Patterns Menu: Period Clothing Patterns and Cutting Diagrams - The Ladies Treasury of Costume and Fashion Period Clothing Patterns and Cutting Diagrams IMPORTANT: Notes On Using Our Patterns These patterns are reproduced from original period patterns and from cutting diagrams found in English, French and American publications of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Those copied from full-sized patterns were scanned in at 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 of the original size as indicated on each piece. They can be printed out and enlarged on a photocopier, projector, digitally, or by hand. Patterns copied from cutting diagrams have been scanned in at 1 to 1½ times original size and are not to scale. We also include period cutting layouts and diagrams which are not always to scale. All of these patterns come in one size only: that of the original. We are happy to grant non-commercial private and personal use of the patterns we share with you for free, but permission must be obtained prior to using them for any other purpose.

textileartscenter.wordpress.com moopy & me As those of you who have read my blog a few times may know ... I love picture books and include them in so much of what we do with the children in the studio. Children can relate to the artworks within and being familiar with the stories & illustrations makes introducing new art concepts super easy. They are also just plain old fun & relaxing! These photos are almost a year old ... from Term 3 last year when we focused on illustration.. You can see that the children have used a soft dark pencil to sketch from life first (onto quality watercolour paper), spending time to really look into my little plant still life. Then finally we whip out the melty dazzling watercolours to paint any way we fancy... making sure to explore new colours. How amazing are Leo Leonni's illustrations! PS Did you know I blog over here about the art classes for children...
Fiber and Material Studies The School of the Art Institute of Chicago’s (SAIC) Department of Fiber and Material Studies provides you with an interdisciplinary study of fiber, materials, and processes that incorporate art-making approaches including: textile construction, sculpture, installation, action, and craft. Studio Practice Courses emphasize the production of textiles and fiber arts within a contemporary art context and supported by current theoretical discourse. Students learn a vast range of textile construction, surface techniques, and processes, including: weaving, print, dye, stitch, soft sculpture, felting, knitting, crochet, spinning, collage, and embellishment. Our studios feature analog and digital equipment, and students engage in thinking and working with hand processes while incorporating digital technologies and computer-assisted approaches to making.

3D knitted upholstery fabric by Bouroullec brothers for Kvadrat | more with less Canal, Moraine and Gravel are three collections of 3D knitted and stretch upholstery fabric launched by the Bouroullec brothers for Kvadrat, the danish textile manufacturer. Canal, Moraine y Gravel son tres colecciones de tapicería elástica confeccionada en 3D, presentada por los hermanos Bouroullec para Kvadrat, la fabricante textil danesa. Constructed using a double jersey knit, the collections reveal new surfaces of slightly quilted fabric. Realizados con punto doble de jersey, las colecciones revelan nuevas superficies de tela ligeramente acolchadas. “At the very beginning of our research there was a fascination for the structural traits of textiles that, observed under a magnifying glass, can be interpreted like a lattice of threads – building marvellous architectures,” said the designers. The fabrics combine the flexibility and firmness necessary to upholster a wide variety of shapes with the possibility of less points of stitching.
