Fabric manipulations




This is an experiment in fabric manipulation - essentially for a background print to my florals. I have used old scraps of fabric on calico and have tried to create surface interest and a ripple effect or undulating effect. When the colours are manipulated in Photoshop the design takes on depth which I think would translate well in a digital fabric print. This could then be embellished.

Surface Detail - Alexander McQueen


I was having a look at some runway images on Style.com when I found this totally fabulous detail from Alexander McQueen -a truly aspirational and inspiration piece of surface design and stitchery.
