The first mechanical weaving mill stood there in 1851, driven by water power. Since 1879 the new owner gave it its name and the mill was then steam powered. There was a weaving and spinning mill, a dyeing and bleachery. 270 people worked there in its heyday. The mill operated until 2004. The last owner lived alone in his closed factory and died there in 2011.
I'm pleased to say that Yan is taking an interest in textiles - he's seen here contemplating a 30 year old resist/discharge dyed batik.

I was curious to find something unusual for this group's letter t, and I found this rather fun. I hope that you enjoy!
Textile materials are fibers, yarns, and fabrics made by weaving, knitting, or bonding natural or synthetic threads. Common natural materials include plant-based cotton and linen, and animal-based wool and silk. Popular synthetic options are polyester and nylon, which are derived from chemical compounds.
With heartfelt and sincere thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful day, stay healthy, stay alert, appreciate the beauty around you, enjoy being creative, stay safe, 😊😊😍

Chiffon, Lace and Roses gave my 8th grade graduation dress a light, airy and sweet look...
See the first comment for a picture of the dress. It's a lovely lookback.
The theme of our 8th grade graduation was Stairway to Heaven.

I chose this one in particular for the group because I think the gold shows off the vintage threading nicely... For Macro Mondays Cloth/Textile capture.
"For this challenge ... I want to see photos of cloth as a textile: something that is generally woven, felted, or knitted; and used for garments, upholstery, and many other items. I understand that yarn, silk, floss, thread and fibers are considered textiles, but they will not be accepted for this theme unless they have been woven, felted or knitted into cloth."
-- Janet Towbin, admin and textile designer .
Janet also linked a video about Ann Hamilton, who states:
"There are very few times in our lives when we are not touching cloth. Cloth is the hand that is always surrounding us. It's our constant companion."

This is part of a long piece of fabric my sister brought back from Kenya. I cropped it as well as first taking a close macro shot. The D810 has about a 7250 pixel width. Bit of a memory hog ;)
Thanks for looking!

Worker inspection drying textiles in a small factory in Jaipur.
Jaipur's textile tradition is deeply rooted in its history, dating back to the Mughal era. The region became renowned for its intricate block printing and dyeing techniques, attracting royal patronage. Textiles from Jaipur, particularly those using natural dyes and handcrafted methods, are celebrated for their vibrant colors and detailed patterns. These textiles are not only crucial to the local economy but also a symbol of Rajasthan's cultural heritage, embodying centuries of artistry and craftsmanship that continue to influence contemporary fashion and design globally.
So I finished this sweater sleeve yesterday, however it can't claim to be a finished piece of fabric until all the loose ends have been woven in...and that is no fun at all !!
Looking close... on Friday...the theme today is: Textile Texture
