One of the few remaining large textile machines still to be found at the place of their operation. Once dozens of such units oparated in every factory in Lodz - now they are few and far between. For this reason I am very satisfied to have found this beauty and make some shots of it (along with some of her girlfriends from the same location).
Mom and I ventured to a craft/sewing store today to browse around and see what we could find. While there, I found some swatches of fabric that caught my eye and were on sale.
Mom was kind enough to treat me, so now I just need to figure out what project I can do to make use of these.
Maybe some headbands? I did pick fabrics that match absolutely nothing, which in my mind, means they match everything!
Happy Fabric Friday?
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Getting use to the buttons and wheels on my new camera by shooting objects around the house and in the house. I really liked the way this silk rose came out! I hope you do too. I liked the fact that you can see tiny patterns on some of the petals.
( A special thank you to all of my MM friends!!)
The Cotonificio Cantoni was one of the most important examples of the Italian textile industry in the 20th century. Founded in 1828 in Legnano, the company began as a small textile workshop and quickly developed into a large factory, becoming the largest cotton company in Italy for a long time.

Hope Silk Mill, Leek was extended in 1928-1929 in an Art deco style and it is this section that has survived. The mill is still used in the textile trade, being occupied by a business manufacturing specialist sports wear such as rugby shirts.
Stone Dam Mill was a steam powered worsted spinning mill built for William Huntriss. It is now warehouse shop. The mill was built c1836 for worsted spinning and extended c1855. In 1889 Hugh Campbell moved to Halifax to start his own business manufacturing gas engines. He set up a workshop in Stone Dam Works, Well Lane, Halifax, financed by local people who admired his workmanship. As the business developed he had new premises built and moved out of the Stone Dam site. The building is Grade II listed.
Local market in Antigua, Guatemala.
Textiles is perhaps Guatemala's best-known and most popular artisanal activity; It is also one of the most important export products in the country. The most popular fabrics are produced by indigenous women, creating intricate designs with multiple colors; but in general, typical fabrics are produced by both, women and men, women use the traditional back-strap loom with wooden sticks, while men use a big pedal loom to produce them.

still life photography of mostly textile
This and the next two are photos that I put in an exhibition in my home town---all photography, flat lay- mostly textiles scrunched together to look like flowing skirts--I guess you could call it mixed media although the finished product is a pure photograph, enhanced with photoshop----Lynne
