My Work: Start or term until now




Whilst producing these laser cut textiles I looked into how I can utilize scraps of fabric that are left over. I feel these samples could be used for embellishment on accessories. I also investigated flocking, dyeing the flock with Dylon dye to create new colours as well as splashing and dribbling the dye onto the flock to create texture. I was also excited to try flocking onto felt to get a double texture which was fairly successful, although because of the dye the flock stuck very well onto the felt which meant it was a real hassle to peel it off. In the next few weeks I want to look into creating my own felt out of discarded woolen jumpers.
