Hello, I must start this post by apologizing as it has been far too long since I last posted, but I have been in the midst of my final major project and have been crazy busy! So I thought I would show you what I have been doing.
As some of you may know from previous posts, I was doing my project on Cartography, however I decided several weeks into this that it wasn't right for me! I am now doing a project called 'Woodland life' and I think I have caught up now! It's been a really good topic for creating textile samples and print designs, here are a few of my favorites...
French knots on velvet- this sample reflect the bluebells in Woodlands.
Machine embroidery
Heat transfer owls
I did some sketches of different elements of woodlands from photographs I took at Swanbourne lake woodlands.
Manipulated sketches- I repeated my sketches to create a print design.
Heat transfer
Heat transfer leaf skeletons
copy of William Morris' 'Strawberry Thief'
William Morris style mouse design
Copies of Ernst Haeckel botanical drawings in biro with addition of knitted rendering.
Copies of Yoko Furusho's illustrations
Lino printing with french know detail
Machine embroidery with wool thread
Hand dyed Calico
And here are some of my designs...
You may have noticed design two is looking slightly bare, but let me re-assure you this is just because I haven't drawn in the detail yet, it will be covered in heat transfer leaves!
I have nearly finished making design one so far and I will post the pictures when they are all finished!
Thanks for reading,
Millie
