Contemporary Textiles Route B - Results

Was really pleased with my results for the table linen I made for this module.  This also included research and development to make the piece along with sketchbook work and information about fundraising to help with the cost of the British Craft Trade Fair.  My result was an A overall for the project, really really pleased :)

Contemporary Textiles B

All work been handed in now and fingers crossed for the results.  Did some extra embroidery work to go with the table linen piece with a placemat and coaster.  I also did some photoshop work with layering my designs onto ceramics and bed linens to show how my designs could be used in a variety of ways.

Year 2 - Contemtorary Textiles Route B

This module of work was all about nastalgic holidays.  Looking back at old and some new photographs to create some interesting images.  Within this collection are drawn and painted images and also some handmade felt, needle bonded fabric and linen fabric which has been embroidered, embellished and smocked.  The linen work has had threads drawn and has been re-worked into to create different effects.
