Fibres, fabrics and filaments
* Now including a 1 hour bonus section on threads *

An online workshop packed with information to increase your understanding of fabric and threads
We are lucky to live in a world of seemingly endless choices, not least in the range of fabrics and threads available to us as quilt-makers and garment creators. In this live online workshop Philippa shares the knowledge she has gained in an amazing 5 decades of stitch, to help you understand more about man-made and natural fibres and fabrics.
After viewing the workshop you will understand the characteristics of the main types of thread - including when and why you might choose them. You will also have a better understanding of different types of fabrics so that you can make more informed fabric choices for your quilts and garments.
Our aim is to see you achieve greater sewing success and increased enjoyment in developing all your textile projects.
