I am very pleased to announce the arrival of a new book by Jenny Udale, Basics Fashion Design: Textiles and Fashion. It features images from my Islands Above project.
Islands Above
This is an unique technique I have developed using discharge and devore on long pile velvet.
Mr Elephant Fatbear: Textile Teddy
Mr Elephant was created from screen-printed cotton shirting. He will
soon be available in a collection of colours to take home and keep.
Check Flowers
Screen-printed heavy silk dress. By building up layers in print in contrasting colours, the fabric gives the impression of a check weave.
Printed Check
Another example of using layering of print to give a weave effect.
Fabric Sketches
To explore different textile techniques and combinations, I have produced a collection of 'Fabric Sketches' on a variety of different fabrics.
Floral Quilting
Screen-printed floral design with contrasting quilting.
Japanese Telephones
Discharge print in various strengths on silk. The image comes from telephones I found in the Fish Market in Tokyo.
Japanese Cranes
Imagery inspired by chains of paper cranes in Hiroshoma.
Little Monsters
For little ones.
