Mary Parsons sampler from The Unbroken Thread.Kathy Andrews of The Unbroken Thread returns for a fifth visit. The show is sponsored by the Sassy Jacks Stitchery. Kathy has just finished a textile-conservation course at Beloit College in Beloit, WI, and joins us to talk about her experience and share a few of the things she learned. Among the many topics we discussed are handling and storing textiles, effect of environmental factors on all textiles, and what a simple microscope can reveal about textiles, particularly antiques. This was a game-changing class for Kathy and when you hear our conversation, you’ll understand why. Interested in taking the Sampler Care/Conservation class? Let Kathy and Beloit College know by completing a survey at https://forms.gle/yCWNFUVTRG8tgAsE8. Learn more about related classes offered by Beloit College at the links below. Also, you might like to own the textile conservation books Kathy mentioned/uses. They’re also linked below.–Beth and Gary
