the cover to a scrapbook I recently made for my textile design class. originally it was just going to be the image on the front, but I decided to add more muslin and cardboard and paper and convert it to a scrapbook. So fun to make!

At the end of any museum special exhibit is a gift shop. This is a photo taken in the Legion of Honor Museum gift shop at the exit of the Special Exhibit gallery rooms - this time Monet: the Early Years. Melody loves gift shops and makes it a point to visit them wherever there is one. This is a photo of two of my favorite subjects: prevalence of cell phones and shapely people.
Textiles, Metal Wire
For this project I was inspired by the sails of the boats, large pieces of fabric that change depending on the wind.
I experimented with creating a pieces of textiles that would be easily malleable by hand. I explored knitting and crochet different fabric together, and then I found using metal wire it can be malleable and it would keep the shape. I then explored weaving the metal wire, and it was effective. The wire made the shapes be malleable and strong.
Inside the famous Lace Factory located in the same city where Michael Scott was once regional manager at Dunder-Mifflin Paper Company.

On the left is a photo of samples from an 1820's sample book found in a textile mill in Oldham, England.These samples really intrigued me and I tried to recreate a portion of one in cross stitch. The background is a book binding sample which I rusted.
Some urban exploration. This has always been one of my favourite types of photography. I hope you enjoy these photo's as much as I did taking & editing them. This abandoned building, once a textile factory will soon be demolished and new developments will take its place. I'm glad I got to explore and see these wonderful works of art before that happens :')
