Beige text against a burnt orange background reads: As individuals and a team, the academic and technical staff within the University of Lincoln's department of Conservation are shocked and saddened to learn of the redundancies taking place within National Trust conservation studios and properties. The National Trust has been a sector leader in the care and conservation of our shared cultural heritage for generations, and a beacon to which our students look for inspiration, guidance, and experience. We are concerned for what the cuts may mean for emerging professionals and the conservation sector, but we send our heartfelt thanks to each and every National Trust colleague - past and present - who has supported us in our educational and research aims over the years. We are standing with you in solidarity, as one conservation community. October 2025.

A statement in support of our colleagues in National Trust properties and conservation studios around the country.

This past week I examined cobweb fibers used as a paintings substrate. High magnification, and hyperspectral imaging techniques with variable lighting direction were super helpful to show certain features and properties of the web of fibers. #TextileConservation #ArtConservation

Hi I’m catatonically anxious but at least I’m still decent at fiddling with little threads. Slowly replacing the missing decorative binding threads by surrealist artist Mary Reynolds. Almost done! #TextileConservation #ArtConservation

Disassociating from the world while stitching this brittle little charmer. #TextileConservation

I’m back to thinking about the etchings printed on highly reflective synthetic fibers by Barbara Rossi. Many of them she also stitched, pieced, quilted, embroidered or beaded. Forever fascinated by her style and methods. #TextileConservation #ArtConservation

A person lays on the floor, looking up and holding a measuring tool underneath a large black column also laying on its side.

Thomas, looking like a cross between a horizontal Bernini and a relic of Pompei, while measuring the underside of a mount. #TextileConservation

Look at this is amazing fake binding with deteriorated decorative threads that my coworker made as a mock up to perfect a treatment! Today I helped them spin and ply some custom dyed yarn to match the original, and we tested adhesives. #TextileConservation

A close up picture of a 19th century silk stitched sampler is examined with a very small beam of light using a piece of scientific equipment.

Seeing what kind of haywire data I get trying to get a microfade graph from a chenille silk thread. #TextileConservation

Pardon the wacky angle but this was fun to look at under UV. A multiple plate matrix print on silk satin textile with metal thread and colored floss silk from 1746. #TextileConservation

An archival box with a piece of textile art, packed with acid free tissue, with hands lifting the tissue to show the corner of the artwork.

Beautiful soft pack with @labruja-espino.bsky.social to ship this wooly baby off on exhibit. #TextileConservation

Dyeing Japanese tissue and overdyeing cotton threads for a treatment of a thready textiley Mary Reynolds binding with the book conservation dept. #TextileConservation #ArtConservation

One critical part of our #circulareconomy #textileconservation #zerowaste mission is to keep everything out of the landfill and to keep things from going overseas, like to #ghana, to mess with their environment and native clothing and textile industries. Giving away “Freejects” is one way we do so.

I wrote a new thing. I talk about this to classes that I present to about Thread Up’s environmental mission and adjacent issues with fast fashion. Surprisingly easy way to have less climate impact and save money #textileconservation #textilesustainability #climateaction
