Play, Learn, Explore

Welcome to Textile Evolution! Liz Kettle and Ruth Chandler invite you to grab your needles and thread, your paint and your paper and come out and play with us.

Textile Evolution is a community where you can learn techniques, explore our favorite question 'what if...' and bravely make art from the heart. Ruth and Liz love fabric, fibers and thread...ok love may not be the right word...cherish? no...fancy...no....adore? Maybe all that piled together! Stitching makes our hearts dance with joy!

Whether you are a traditional quilter who wants to dip into the art quilt pool, a fiber artist looking to expand your skills or a mixed media artist who wants to play with fabric join us as we explore the world of fiber and stitch.

Join us in the forum under the Discussions tab for our free book studies of Fabric Embellishing: the Basics and Beyond and Threads:the Basics and Beyond. You do need the books to participate in the book study but there isn't any fee to jump in and play. You will find tutorials and fun projects in the forum as well.

The forum is also a place where you can ask us questions, get advice, make new friends and share your love of stitching. Don't be shy, jump in and say hello.

Don't miss the tutorial section in the forum where we have a lot of fun projects for you to try.

Under the Learn with Us tab you can find out where we are teaching both locally and around the world. We will be adding on-line classes later this year so sign up for our newsletter to get all that information as soon as we announce it.
