This month we have Angie show us all the background to her amazing final show pieces for the Morley College Textile course.
She took her inspiration from rusty metals – the texture and colours.

These circular saw blades sparked her imagination.
Angie talked about the course and showed us 3 huge folders that contained her samples, notes and ideas. She then mentioned there were several more of these folders at home and that all the students were initially given a single folder to record their ideas. She was so enthusiastic about the work that she spent vast amounts of time working on her samples and ideas to fill all these books. She explained the structure of the course and the various elements including dyeing, embroidery sewing and knitting as well as drawing.
Several club members went to the course final show held, unusually, at South Bank University, not Morley College due to renovation work in progress.
The focus of her work was knitting with wire using the colourse and texture derived from her inspiration of the rusty metal surfaces.
