Exploratory- Textile Surface Design, Dye, Stitch, Layers, Hand and Machine

The two sample above is what I created from using dye, hand and machine stitch. During the exploratory stage I enjoyed textiles and was not sure what i wanted to do in my pathway. This opened my eyes and I decided to carry this on.

This was my final piece in textiles exploratory. I used embroidery and hand stitching, iron-on-studs, pleats and dyed fabric. I love the warm colours it makes me smile.
