These sites are useful when doing a broad search to see what other sites have to offer. While this can be done with a basic
google (or preferred search engine), these sites can help you skip a step at first and move your research on a little bit
faster. (I'm all about skipping a step!)

I don't know anything about this page, except that it has some unique links to interesting sites. Some of the links are iffy,

with useful information and/or images.
Links to textiles museums and galleries.
