July 6 – October 16, 2021

Thank you for joining us for the 21st year of A Common Thread, our annual member exhibition. Always a favorite, this exhibition showcased a fabulous array of fiber art created by Textile Center’s members!

Each year, over a hundred artworks adorn the walls of Textile Center’s galleries (this year, more than 130!) in an exhibition that is as diverse in technique as it is prolific in scope. Techniques include stitching, quilting, knitting, crochet, sewing, weaving, dyeing, felting, needlework, hand construction, polymer clay, lacemaking, basketry, beading, sculpture, mixed media, and more.
