Mon 23rd – Fri 27th Oct, 2017


                Last week I was still unsure about my warp, while I was making it, and was worried that I would hate it as it would be too dominant against my weft. However, now that it is on the loom and I have started weaving, I could not be happier with it – It has fulfilled everything I wanted it to be: quirky, autumnal, slightly traditional and much more versatile than I was expecting. 


                My issue now is that I am struggling a little with how to sample. This is a problem I had last year and am still learning. I keep wanting to jump straight into making samples without putting much thought into them – But with a limited warp that isn’t the best way to work. With help from Lesley and Rebecca I am learning how to be more selective with what I produce and how to get to that point to begin with. I have been trying new ways of drawing/ collaging to try and create possible ideas for samples. I am still in the early stages of this but will hopefully get some nice samples out of it.
