More than 600 fabrics and 700 color illustrations: an authoritative, accessible, and definitive guide to all the textiles available today. From the earliest weaves uncovered by archaeologists to today’s machine-produced, scientifically advanced fabrics, textiles have had a profound influence on civilization. As technologies change and world economics influence the direction that fashion and textiles take, it is vital that both skills and our textile vocabulary should be kept alive. This encyclopaedia is a definitive reference guide to all the major types of fabric in circulation today, from abbot cloth to zibeline. In clear and engaging language, the author describes and illustrates more than 600 of the most important examples, from classic tweeds to state-of-the-art nano fabrics. Each entry includes a brief definition, informative notes on structure, and a list of uses. More than 700 color illustrations show a fabric’s weave, texture, and other defining characteristics at a glance, and helpful diagrams demonstrate the structure of the most important types of textiles. The book concentrates on textiles in current use, but it also covers obscure or obsolete terms that one might come across―and that might still have something to teach today’s designers, manufacturers, and textile historians. Each entry is carefully cross-referenced, and the book includes an extensive glossary and bibliography. 750+ color illustrations and photographs

The Place Light Gets In is a collection of memoirs written over several years by a group of eight individuals who all started writing to record some of their memories for others to read. In the process, they found forgotten memories and new friendships that gave them insight and support for building their writing skills and coping during the pandemic.The stories contained in the book are as varied as the people who wrote them. With an age range of fifty years, the one thing these writers have in common is that they are Episcopalians and were brought together by an idea inspired by two priests at Holy Innocents’ Episcopal Church. Beyond that, they have many different backgrounds and life experiences to share in their stories.These memoirs will take you across the globe from an unexpected ride on a camel in Cairo to the anxiety of returning home from Australia at the start of the pandemic. Through the stories, you will travel through time from a young man’s naïve enlistment in the National Guard and subsequent deployment across an ocean to fight in the Korean War, to the difficult adjustments of changing our expectations for daily life during COVID.Relationships are uncovered, whether they are about joyful celebrations together, hilarious predicaments, profound loss, or riveting experiences that renew one’s faith. Through all these stories, the writers hope you will enjoy reading their memoirs and be inspired to write about your own memories.Join the following writers on their journeys: Beverly Baker, Tony Clarke, Stefan Fatzinger, Carolyn Fore, Christy Baker Knight, Jeannie Longley, Sally Parsonson, and Janet Wilson.
