Project Update.

This past week/end I've not posted much on here, mostly because I've not been very well and also because I've only been doing the finishing touches to my final pieces and that would be boring to blog about. I've been rather poorly, like I said, I'm pretty sure it's because of stress due to my final major project and because of student finance and finding somewhere to live when I go to uni. However I am all better now and feel much more organised and productive, Today I printed up 2 more scarf's which makes 5 all together and then my big exhibition scarf which I have been finishing off today - hand sewing the angelina fibers and needle feltings on to it. Tomorrow I am going to be a very busy bee as I'm going to buy some jars for my exhibition for my business cards, Both creative and corporate, my needle felted brain, and jewelry I shall be selling. As well as doing more needle felting rings and maybe more sewing onto my big scarf. It's all finally coming together now and I couldn't be happier. The next post on here will probably be my exhibition post which shall be next Tuesday morning or so as I shall be extremely busy with finishing touches and putting my exhibition up and I don't want to blog about it and give the ending away. However if you follow me on instagram there might be a few cheeky pictures. I just want to say I am so happy with my final major project and I know how hard I have worked and the challenges I have set my self. I really hope you have all loved following my journey through my final major project through my blog. Everyone in the art, design and fashion department has worked really hard and put so much effort into their exhibition piece's It's all going to look fantastic. I would like to say, Thank you so much to my tutor and print room instructor for challenging me and pushing me to do better and better though out every project and for teaching me skills which will form my career (hopefully!). 

Sorry for not posting on here much, See you all next week for my exhibition blog post (I'm so excited!!) 

Thank you for reading!! x 

UPDATE; Where I Am In My Current Project.

Four Week left of this project, Oh dear! Scary stuff, This project has gone by so so fast, This whole year has. As It's only 4 week left I thought I would update you on what I have done so far and what I need to do and my idea's for my exhibition. I am now at the point where I have completed the following; 3 mood boards, 3 artist research sheets, 2 visual sheets, 2 development sheets and one I am currently working on. Aswell as my sketchbook which is on going. My original plan for my exhibition was to create 3 summer scarfs each with the same print on but with different colour way's. Then have my needle felted petri dishes in actual plastic petri dishes and other needle felted things in jar's. After a talk with the print room instructor/tutor I decided I would create one huge scarf which is more of an exhibition piece rather than a wearable scarf,  This will include lot's of techniques (which will depend on time management), This will be to show off the skills I have learnt in the past year. I shall also do 2 more scarfs which will be just printed, on a light fabric which will be wearable and could be sold.  I am happy with this idea as I can show off my skills more, although I will have to manage my time management to perfection!! My plan from today is to focused on getting my last development sheet done and my paper tracing done ready to put onto kodatrace to expose my screen so I can start sampling. As my main scarf I shall be creating will be really huge I will be using the registration bar to make sure my screens line up properly and to make sure it has a professional look. I shall blog about this when the time comes. My needle felting, knitting and weaving will be done in my own time at home as my time at college is needed for sampling. All my sampling will be photographed and blogged about each day. I hope you understand my thought process by reading this aswell as previous blog posts about my final major project.

Thankyou for reading.
