New techniques

Keeping to the idea of different materials I finding the artist Suzan Drummen, made me think about the use of backgrounds. I found the tailor taker foot hard to use because the thread keep snapping, however I did use multiplies plastics and woods. I thought my most successful sample was the chiffon ribbon around the hair pin and it created a thread on it. Also, another aspect of this sample I thought was interesting was the shadow effect. The sample I want to improve was the seam sample by creating layers by cutting through the plastic. The unsuccessful samples were the ones using the hairs pin and rubber thread because the thread did stitch as well as other materials. This made it less interesting. The process of the hair pin and zipper foot was really experimental to use on different materials and fabrics as it manipulated them in different ways. I want to create these pieces on a bigger scale.
