My degree show display

Here is my final degree show display. I have used large glass bottles, thinking of message in a bottle theme linked with the seaside, then suspended on floating shelves and having rails at the bottom of the boards with jumper fronts.
I wanted the look to be clean, professional yet have some essence of my theme.

Jumper fronts

here are my 8 final jumper fronts, all created using different techniques all looking different but linking together as a collection.








Display research

Here are a few images from pintrest, looking at interesting ways to display my work. All of the images have something to do with sea side or distressed wood or materials. I found these images great inspiration towards my final ideas.

Final fabric ideas

Here are a few of my final fabric ideas, I have narrowed down some of the most interesting and effective techniques to then create much large pieces for final garments and jumper fronts. They're all very weathered and distressed, some with bleaching and others with tie dye, the most popular technique I have used is tuck stitch, cabling and laddering.

Dubied Racking

Here I have began to experiment with the racking technique on the 10gauge dubied machines, I like the wavy pattern created, it links well with my project looking at swirls,cables,waves - beach textures.
I have then tye dyed the fabrics to make them look more interesting and continue with my theme.
