Hello! We are so excited that you have stopped to visit Textile Indie. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Are you a Textile Indie?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you see a beautiful piece of fabric and immediately start dreaming up a new project?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you smell clean sheep wool and get excited to start spinning?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever gone on a hike and seen a bush with beautifully colored branches and wondered what they would look like as a basket?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you get energized finishing creative projects (or maybe just starting them!)?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are fabric, yarn, and craft stores your favorite places to shop?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you picked up a pair of chopsticks and thought, \u201cI wonder what knitting with these would be like?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does your family complain about your stash of materials and craft supplies?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you walk through a clothing store and touch things as you go just to feel the different fabrics?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Do you want the best resources, tools, and products for fiber artists?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Every other Friday, I send an email chock full of fiber craft inspiration for you to explore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each issue focuses on one fiber art skill – spinning, dyeing, basket weaving…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does Textile Indie mean?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Well, it means you enjoy textiles and fiber<\/span> – the making, <\/span>using, and the wearing<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You love to use your hands and brain to create beautiful and functional things. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019re an individual with an aesthetic – a <\/span>way of seeing and appreciating the world around you. You have unique passions, interests, and talents. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are a Textile Indie.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

How can we help you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you wish you could spend more time making things?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to learn new skills or be challenged by new techniques in the realm of fiber and needlearts?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever wanted to try a craft that isn’t readily available at the local craft store?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world is full of information. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, it’s challenging to sort through all this information and still have time to do the things we love and learn the skills we want to try. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here at Textile Indie, we want to help you get the information you need to start out in your textile adventures. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us on a journey of exploration and discovery in fibers and textiles. Let’s learn new things<\/span> and dabble in new skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are learning along with you. Textile Indie will share tutorials, how-to\u2019s, projects,<\/span> and lots of inspiration. We’ll also share the struggles, failures, and mistakes <\/span>in a spirit of courage for the creative process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone is different; we don’t claim to have the best way<\/span> or end-all techniques. We just want to share what we\u2019ve learned and are learning<\/span>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
