From top designer clothing lines to the humble flag, these designs have been created from one of the most flexible and practical materials - fabric. In this program viewers are introduced to the world of textiles. We learn how textiles are categorized - their characteristics and properties; factors involved in sourcing textiles; the importance of testing fabrics; the dyeing of textiles; and how textile finishes work. We also hear from a number of professionals who work in the textile industry. This program will support designers in choosing the most suitable fabric for their own end product.
