I dyed this piece a good 30 min. because it was so large and so I wanted to make sure that the dye penetrated overall.

On March 22nd, following four separate preparatory visits over the last 4 years by NCAD Woven Textile staff, a group of sixteen Fashion and Textiles students and two staff members will travel to Nepal to spend 14 days in and around the Kathmandu valley. They will be hosted by Fair Trade Nepal, the Association of Crafts Producers and Rug Mark, visiting local artisans to witness at first hand the production methods and materials used, as well as the working conditions of a developing country.

One of my first forays into computer design. One simple motif that turned into a fun design. Still love so many years later.

I wanted to print some of the Jungle Series onto cotton sateen at 4 inch size and reduce the scale. As you can see, I set them up for having a seam allowance and then I trimmed them from the fabric. I could then rotate them in different arrangements. I really like the possibilities! I've not sewn any of them together, just taking a look at the way they might be arranged.

On our second and third visits to the prairie, the class used iPads and ARIS to photograph the site, draw specimens, log scientific data, record plant locations using GPS, and note impressions of the experience.

This had a delicate shibori dye job on the corners where the furoshiki will be tied, so I believe that whichever small object gets wrapped up into this textile will look very beautiful and curious!

 

Last month, Michael and I had the opportunity to visit a fascinating vintage clothing exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

 

Entitled, “Death Becomes Her: A Century of Mourning Attire”, it featured an historical progression of mourning attire spanning the years 1840 to 1916. Worn mainly by new widows, other family members, children, sisters, grandmothers, and even men might also dress in black.

 

These finely constructed, exquisite and expensive garments reflected the current styles of their era; however, with little or no color. I wandered the beautiful yet, somber vignettes studying the artistry ever mindful that a real person had worn the apparel in mourning for a lost loved one.

This is the reversible Indian shibori fabric side that was felted into the wool! Where the circles are I put yellow and green wool so that the colors would stay the same after felting.

When designing the textile, think of it as your body of work and what message are you trying to send out to the world? Textile design is amazing because you can take pride in seeing your original artwork displayed on people all over the world!

 

So fun!
