This last week in the textile world construct I have been focussing on completing my weave samples on the different types of looms and cutting these off and steaming/heatpressing them if needed. I am also continuing with my sketchbook development work until deadline so that I can add these pieces in and show the relationship between these and my imagery.
An example of some of my weave samples:
Overall, looking through all of my weaving samples now that they are off the loom, im very happy with them. Although due to the different colours/textures of the warps on the different looms the colours do not all relate to my particular colour palette, I still really like the lines and techniques I have used in each piece and im some cases like the first one shown here I do like the different colours. Due to time constraints and the thin qualities of my choice of yarn for the weft of each piece my samples are all quite small in size, however I don't think for sampling this matters as there is still enough weaving to see the differnt patterns and lines in the weave itself. One of my favourite samples is the second one displayed here which i used floristry wire in as I did with some of my knitting. I really like the way in which it is maliable and can shaped when moved. I think all the pieces portray and relate to my photographs, drawings and research in some way due to their lines and architectural theme.
