for my final piece I started brainstorming some ideas, and came to the decision to create a series of dresses\ garments inspired by my colour scheme and spring time.
Dyeing and Bleaching
Using natural dyes and shop bought bleach, I wanted to create my own fabrics as I thought it would give me more flexibility with my creations.
Printing
I created my own fabrics by printing patterns onto them with both natural printing tools I.E. apples, pears and lino printing which I carvedĀ designs into.
Sewing
Setting Up
I started off by dressing a mannequin in my dresses and outfits, but soon decided that i would rather see them on a live body/person.
