Portfolio Session 8. Texture Development.

So this class we were focusing on texture development. Basically we had to chose any two of our prints and textures to develop further. The choice was ours. so it could be 2 prints , or 2 textures or one each.

I don't have any ready so blah!.

Anyway, there were the different areas in which we could develop our textures:

1. Textile Art: Tie and dye, batik, silk painting, any technique of fabric painting,stencil painting, block printing etc.

2. Garment construction: Tucks, pleats, ruffles, shirring, smocking. piping, top stitch, contrast piping, overlock, patch work, quilting, applique, crochet etc.

3.Embroidery and embellishment: combination of different types of stitches,use of satin ribbons, beads, sequins, threads, pipes, laces and any hand or machine embroidery.

4. Check the look boards, to get the direction of the development field.

5.Combine the techniques with balance in shape , colours, and textures.

That was it. And next class we're going to be doing basic styling. I am so lagging behind with my work it's shame full.
