			<description><![CDATA[Just to think, not so long ago this was all done by men women and children working in the cotton mills. I live near an old mill called Quarry Bank Mill in Cheshire England, which is now a museum. The machines make a terrifying noise when they are working at full throttle. I have been lucky enough to buy some old bolt ends and shuttlecocks from the early 19th century from ebay. It is such a shame that we only have a handful of working mills in this country now. As you can tell I love industrial history.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is an amazing video! I have always loved fabric and now have even more appreciation of all the intricacies that go into the making of each bolt. The machines that create each beautiful piece are incredible. I would also like to see how the designs are printed onto the fabric sometime and more information as to how they design and weave prints as the fabric is created. Thanks for this video.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It is stating that this is polyester fabric. I would love to see a video of how they make cotton fabrics for quilting, which is a little different. There are also different grades of cotton fabrics.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[So good to see this video and compare it to the historic mills in the UK that show the beginnings of fabric manufacturing in the mid-1800s (check the Quarry Bank Mill near Manchester, UK). We've come a long way in automating but the basic processes of spinning fiber and weaving cloth are still the same. Thanks for the video clip!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Fascinating! Now, how can we get some of this bobbin capacity to use with longarm and domestic machines? Anyone working along those lines? The capacity of a thread cone (1000 - 2000 yds.) would sure be great. We could all spend a lot less time winding bobbins and just keep stitching on our projects.]]></description>
