Just arrived in The Home: the most beautiful tea towels by Tissage Moutet.
It was love at first sight when Home manager Mark discovered these textiles. They're designed, woven and made entirely in the Basque region of France using two very distinct looms: the Basque and the Jacquard loom. The quality and the colours make our hearts sing!
Available in The Home on the 2nd floor and here https://saltsmillshop.co.uk/search?type=product&q=*moutet*

If you're feeling crafty you can come and enjoy a paper lantern making workshop with L & S Crafts here in the mill, organised by Saltaire Inspired.
You’ll learn the basis of paper cutting and make a lovely lantern to take home.
When: Mon 4th May, 10:15am
Venue: Espresso Bar, 2nd floor, Salts Mill
Price: £25 per person.
Booking and any questions: please email Peter: [email protected]

During the session Laura will teach you how to use a knife to cut safely and effectively, explain how different papers behave and share her best tips. After a bit of practice, you'll be able to apply your new skills to a nature-themed template, or if you’re feeling extra-creative you could design your own!
