SATCoL talk textiles with Jo Andrews

Haptic & Hue podcast explores the creation of fabrics and the stories that lie behind them. The latest Series sees a collection of episodes called Threads of Survival. The eight episodes focus on people, textiles, survival and flourishing in the industry against the odds. The latest episode features our very own Head of Corporate Partnerships, Kirk Bradley as he talks all things textiles and circular fashion with editor Jo Andrews.

As an established handweaver, Jo Andrews knows a thing or two about the journey of fabrics and now owns a small herd of looms, which can be found in a studio in Dorset.  She has exhibited and sold her work in a number of places and had a solo exhibition, called Dreaming in Colour, at Matthew Burt’s showroom in Hindon, Wiltshire.

She creates cloth largely with natural fibres: wool, cotton, silk, and linen, and weaves stories about the role textiles play in our lives and the impact they have on our economies and cultures.
