THE SKIRT

My first attempt

My second attempt- here I upped my scale and made them larger as I need to work on the scale of my drawings!

When we are using Illustrator we use a book by Kevin Tallon called Creative Fashion Design With Illustrator which is really helpful and gives you a step by step guide on how to make different things!I need to get my hands on my own copy

UPDATE

So I have come to realise I haven't updated you all with my work progress for a while! So here you are...

Up to know I think that my college work is improving everytime we get a new brief, which is what I enjoy most and watching how my work changes. I also like the excitment I get from trying out knew ideas and developing ideas further. This weekend the UK has been covered in head to toe in snow, yes I couldnt resist going sledging but its just been a pain and not allowed me to go to places I have wanted to be! But I suppose theres been worse care scenarios and I should really stop complaining and just get on with it as I have lots of things to look forward to, such as some trips, event and of course London Fashion Week with college! I just cant wait.

Here is some of my textile samples I have been creating as part of my textile design brief.....

Its a new day

Today I decided I would take on the task of starting off some observational drawings and with it being a Sunday I was limited on where I could go in the amount of time I had. In the end I thought I would scrap the idea of going to a museum and do that another time. I so decided I would just take my dog for a walk in the woods and see what I could find. In all fairness I found lots of things that were interesting and involved different shapes but I do think I prefer drawing at museums and I don't think the cold weather helped at all!!! Oh the joys of winter.
