I will be attending TexWorld in New York next month, as I am sure many of you will. I’m really looking forward to walking up and down the aisles taking in new innovations and trends in textiles, being introduced to mills and manufacturers I didn’t even know existed (as well as some old favorites) , and networking with fellow industry professionals. Textile shows always seem inspire and motivate me to start my next project; fabric excites me, what can I say? But this year, when registering for TexWorld, I realized that, based purely on my own obliviousness, I have never taken advantage of one of the major resources this show has to offer: Seminars! Have you all seen this list? It’s quite impressive. It covers everything from Sourcing Solutions to Eco Marketing Trends. So take a look at what they’re offering, register, and make a day(or two) of it.
