| Know before using | The workflow is not a contract or quality certification; local legal duties and technical review may still apply. | This is a museum learning hub, not a structured technique curriculum, a qualification, a certification, a practitioner directory, or proof of skill. In-person and scheduled programs may be ticketed, time-limited, or Toronto-based, and recorded content and online resources vary in depth and topic. Confirm the current program schedule, access, cost, format, and topic coverage before relying on it for a specific technique. | An orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority. |

| What the source establishes | The linked tool or guide is maintained inside Stitch Authority and was checked against its current public interface. | The Textile Museum of Canada, a national institution in Toronto supported by public arts funders including the Canada Council for the Arts and the Government of Canada, states on its learning page that it supports lifelong learning through public programs, including hybrid online and in-person workshops, artist talks, and tours, an archive of recorded programs and workshops, education guides tied to exhibitions, and a caring-for-your-textiles conservation section with curated resources. The museum also facilitates workshops at Toronto Public Library branches and through a Community Makers program. | The guide cites published ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it discloses that ISO 10013:2021's 2026 systematic review is at close-of-review stage and separates every cited authority from product-specific technical and market decisions. |
