Well, it's been a fragmented start to the year with all the snow so I feel like I've only just back into my routine. This term will be hectic but exciting as all of the ideas generated last term are developed into finished designs & pieces of textile art. I've been busy cutting up and reassembling the wonderful prints that Year 8 created with me....it's now looking like a vibrant art quilt and once finished I'm hoping to enter it into a Quilt Show.
The students haven't seen it yet; I think they will be amazed at what they have achieved and I'm certainly very proud of them. We just need to add some stitching and sparkly bits....I say 'just' but the embellishment is actually very time consuming and labour intensive so I'll have a few blisters on my fingers by the time the quilt is finished!
