Elly & Aurifil

Italiano (Italian)

Through my collaboration as hosted author for Arte Morbida, I’d like to bring young people closer to the fantastic world of Textiles, in all its forms and most interesting declinations, commercial and not.

I will have the pleasure to open a window on a series of topics that intrigue me, to talk about creativity and show you how the top quality Made in Italy thread industry keeps up with new market trends and needs.

Join me in my trip through the soft waves designed by needle and thread!
