Don't Miss It........


Finally.....Final.....


At last.... after 16 long week's here are the photos of my final designs for HND Textile Art..
A wool/viscose mix dress embellished with tea bags!!!

Shorts and top made from scraps of fabric,binding of gingham hand made with the help of a fab little gadget called a 'Bias Binding Maker', corsage made with a latch hook...


Heavy crepe backed silk, quilted with pearls and lined in Baby pink, this Gillet is shaped at the hem line giving a 'High Fashion' look to an old design. 

Based on Roman Gladiators, this dress is embellished with panels of Vylene dyed with Batik and treated with 'discharge paste' organza was used as an overlay. The dress was then hand beaded and stitched.


Back view of Trapeze dress....envelope bag made from scrap buckram  and tea bags......

Wool/Viscose shell with an overlay of cotton organdie.....shaped at the hem line to give an 'egg shape'. check back earlier in the year on blog for photos of construction....
