LOTS OF A LOT...

Lots of dust, fluff, reels, looms, bobbins, machines, threads...
Lots of images.
Sadly this family business was going to close down, the three remaining brothers, none of their children were going to take it over, because of the advanced technology nowadays, the machines were getting older and would cost a lot to replace.
What a shame, these guys grew up with it and are so passionate about what they do! Sad.
Deep inside the machine, where the magic happens, from thread to material.
We visit a weavery for a shoot, specialised in linen and linen-velours.
It is a known fact that flax used to be grown in the Kortrijk area, where the river Leie runs.
It is a food and fiber crop cultivated in cooler regions of the world.
The textiles made from flax are known as linen and traditionally used for bed sheets, underclothes, and table linen.
In this factory here, the treads come in on massive reels and get woven into beautiful linen cloth and velvet.
Natural in colour.
Later dyed in vibrant colours.
Wishing you all a beautiful day and thank you for visiting, Magda, (*_*)
