DISTAFF (Discussion, Interpretation & Study of Textile Arts, Fabrics
& Fashion)
is happy to sponsor a
Medieval Textile/Textile Arts Display and Demonstration
-- A display of reproduction textile and dress items, handmade using
medieval methods and materials. Items will include textiles,
decorative treatments, garments, and dress accessories. Exhibitors
will demonstrate techniques and be available to discuss the use of
historic evidence in reproducing artifacts of material culture.
Thursday, 10 May, early evening
5:45 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Fetzer 1045
Organizer & Presider: Robin Netherton
We have La Belle Compagnie with small textiles manufacturing
(embroidery, tablet-weaving, sprang); a shoemaker; several weavers
who work in wool, silk and gold; and more. We did something similar
two years ago and it was a great success.
I'll be there too with my rosary replicas and materials. I'd be
delighted for people to come and introduce yourselves!
I'm also giving a paper Sunday morning at 10:30:
"Paternoster Beads: Lauds, Loops, and Loose Ends."
It's in session Session #603 in Fetzer 1030, "Pater Noster:
The Lord's Prayer in Text and Context".
