Studying Textiles: Ausgabe 2022 der St!chwort
We have chosen the topic of textile studies as the theme for the 2022 annual issue. With this, we not only want to make the range of textile study options and locations visible, but also contribute to a first step of networking. Our magazine is like a virtual showcase in front of which potential students and interested parties can gather to gain insight into the innovative and interesting educational situations and research projects in the textile field. Unfortunately, we were not able to include all textile sites in this issue, leaving potential for another edition. To all those who have contributed to our ability to publish such an exciting journal, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

The seminar was led by Lena Küppers. Lucia Schwalenberg reports about a collaborative project undertaken with Stiftung Mensch. In her seminar on “Heritage of Patterns – Development of a Collection for the Historic Beiderwand Weaving Workshop run by Stiftung Mensch in Meldorf”, the students developed geometric, timeless designs inspired by historical Beiderwand weaving.
