Thinking of taking a trip to Venice this year? Or London, Paris, Dublin, or Lyon? Haptic & Hue and Textile Tours of Paris have been busy creating new Textile Travel Guides for those of us who love threads, stitches, cloth and fabric. These are downloadable guides with maps to help you find the best textile locations in each city, simply and quickly.
Venice is the latest addition to the family. Rebecca Devaney and I had great fun putting it together. We walked miles, got very wet, and explored corners of Venice we didn’t know existed to get beyond its tourist façade and bring you the best of its lace-makers, velvet weavers, milliners, studios, cloak makers, boutiques, carnival costumiers and museums.
We explored some of the great traditions of this incredible city which has always valued and encouraged artisans, and its all here in a guide that will help you discover the best of Venice for yourself. You can buy all the guides from https://www.textiletoursofparis.com/textile-travels and remember Friends of Haptic & Hue get 20% off of all individual guides: https://hapticandhue.com/friends-haptic-hue/
