Talking Threads is within the Country Channel (CCTV) slot on Sky 171 and is therefore not listed on the programme schedule.

This week on Talking Threads we meet Fay Maxwell whose work is full of colour and celebrates the tactile nature of fabric. Fay combines experimental techniques with traditional embroidery skills to create wonderfully unique pieces.

Fay runs many workshops, all designed to encourage students to explore new avenues along which to travel and rely on the happy accidents that happen along the way. To view a full list of workshops, click here.

In this week's Talking Threads workshop, Fay demonstrates "Slashing"- an age old technique brought up-to-date with a colourful array of fabrics.

Talking Threads Series 1 is now available on DVD. Visit the Talking Threads shop to buy it now.
