Exhibition 'Fabricating Fashion' in The Stone Fort Museum - Stephen F. Austin State University

Survival for the inhabitants of early Nacogdoches depended on three ingredients: food, clothing, and shelter. The exhibit, Fabricating Fashion, surveys the skills, tools and traditions that shaped clothing and textile arts in East Texas. On display is a late 1800s four-harness counterbalance loom used by the Watters family from Alto, Texas. Try your hand at embroidery or carding cotton, and celebrate textile arts traditions from hand spinning to weaving to quilting.
