May 3rd we recognize all that textiles do to improve our lives with National Textiles Day. From fashionable style to everyday necessity, textiles provide us with a wealth of design possibilities. Woven fibers of either natural or synthetic materials create textiles that make life easier & more comfortable. We use the fabric to make coverings for a variety of uses, from clothes we wear to bedding, furniture covers, rugs, drapery & canvas for art & shelter, textiles cover our lives. Bolts of fabric.
