Ask me what you want/Tell me what you know

Dear tumblr,

I need halp.

I’m currently scrawling compiling exhaustive lists of features/articles/etc for this (still un-named) quarterly textile magazine and there’s some things I’d like to humbly ask for your help with:

1. Questions. I need your questions about anything textile related. I know I already have an inbox full of unanswered questions I’m still working on, but I want moooore. So any questions you would like answered in the very first issue of this textile quarterlysend them to my ask box.
2. Your textile program/major.  The most regularly asked question I get is “can you recommend a good textile program or school in (insert geographical location)?”.  To my great personal disappointment, no I can’t. I just don’t know enough about any textile programs or have any personal experience with them to feel I can confidently steer you in the right direction. Everyone on tumblr seems very happy to offer up their experience at their own school whenever this comes up however, so I thought for the benefit of everyone looking for programs I could compile a list of programs and your personal experiences/thoughts. Anyone wanting to talk about their textile school or program, to the ask box! (Anonymous is understandable since I intend on publishing your answers.)

In fact, all around I am open to suggestions on what you want to see in a textile magazine. So if there’s anything that just kills you deep down on the inside that you never see addressed in any art/craft/other textile magazines, tell me about it, we can have a good cry and I’ll see what I can do.

Many more thanks than I am reasonably allowed to show without things getting awkward,

Textile Nerd
