Bradford- Week Four..

For the final few days of weaving  for the Bradford Brief, I wanted to experiment even more by brightening up my warp. So I tied in vibrant dip dyed wool ends and scattered them across the sample. I then selectively chose yarns for my weft that would highlight all the liveliness now in this warp.

 

 

The outcome of this project has been very different to how I imagined it in the beginning. The quick start of getting back into my work  after a long Summer has been mentally tiring. I am now extremely pleased with how my finished project has come together, and especially how it’s photographed. As I am still bursting with ideas, I am looking forward to developing my Self-Initiated project even further in the coming weeks. The images below are of my final photograph and selected sample that I have decided to put forward for The Bradford Textile Society.

My Final Collection is inspired by my Summer experiences at the location I admire - my home, Llandudno in the middle of the North Wales coast. My collection of samples are tailored towards a bright and vibrant colourful explosion of throws and blankets for modern interiors.
