Rue de la Laine is a registered trademark behind which hides a natural fibers passionate textile artist . Exploring past, forgotten gestures, Marie chooses her fibers among wool, silk, cotton, linen and many others.
She dyes, she paints, she combs, she cards, she mixes colors and textures.
On her spinning wheel, or with her spindles, she spins them to make very simple skeins or very elaborate fancy yarns, always in a traditional way.
On her loom, she handweaves unique fabrics to create accessories that stand out, very different from what the industrial textile sector offers today.
At each of these stages, she is ready to teach and transfer techniques so as to share with as many people as possible the happiness of textile arts.
