A Little About Textiles

A wide variety of techniques can be used to create patterns and designs on fabrics—for example, woven patterns, beadwork, embroidery, dyeing, and applique. Techniques may be widespread or tied to a certain geographic region, culture, clan, artist, culture bearer, or family. The textiles in this exhibition show various such techniques and designs.
