Metamorpohsis

The last project Metamorphosis has been my very favourite out of every module this year.
This is due to been more based on textiles and having more freedom.
At first i found the module set over Easter quite hard to get into as there was no one to ask for help. After reading the brief over again it became clearer of what to do. Once i got into making my fabrics and picking my three words it became a joy to do. I discovered using a heat gun which can melt the fabric and fuse it together.
I first chose the words photography, witchcraft and weave, by the end of the project i completely changed all three words as i found other ways which worked better for me.

CRAFT PACKET
I really enjoyed designing and making the craft packet as i got to stick with my textiles theme to fit it in with my final skirt design.
I fused the fabric to the swing ticket and hanger and added embroidery including words based around witchcraft.
I feel my hanger could have turned out better, but i felt i could not unpick it and restart it as my fabric and silk fibre was to expensive to buy more.

I was impressed with how my final skit turned out after completely changing my design at the last minute.

Overall i have learnt alot of new skills from this project and will use these for future projects and in the fashion industry.
