Then get a peek at how TQS guest Jennifer Sampou's (Show 2706) line of fabric is digitally printed in the second video below. Enjoy!

I have always wondered what it takes to make fabric. This was so enlightening, and I loved seeing the entire process. Applause! A great film. It certainly is labor intensive from start to finish. The machinery is incredible. For the next film, I want to see the workers making the dyes. I think that would also be interesting. I have a new appreciation for my stash of fabric. ---- Martha Frey, Lancaster, PA

Thanks so much for sharing Kens wee documentary! I always want to know how things happen. This goes a long way to help me understand why the cost of fabric Has climbed. We are blessed to be able to enjoy such high quality “art supplies”!
