Moving on with my idea of taking inspirational ideas from my weave to making into embroidery pieces, I felt they needed more length or pattern to them like my weave has. So going back and looking throughout my weave samples to see what it had that my embroidery ones didn't.
I came out with repetition of pattern, or even the idea of mirroring my pattern.
I started with just the one pattern and repeated and almost straight away I could see the effect it has on the shape of the pattern. Bringing a new area of interest to the repeated pattern.
Yet still I wanted to improve on it, I thought about collaging them in some way but I didn't want the pattern to be unreadable for me to recreate, to much of a mess and I don't think it would have been much a pattern left.
I decided to do it in a controlled repetitional pattern using different parts of individual designs so create new patterns. I feel like it was more effective and a more readable and re-creatable pattern for me to sample out.
Now that I have found a path way of creating pattern and sampling them I want to work on bringing in touches of colour into my work. I still want to keep the boldness of the Art Deco pattern I have worked with but have flecks of my starting colour palette, Changing round the way I am viewing and working with my colours. After talking with Nigel, and looking at my work from a different angle, I want to try a few new things like black on black.
With all the new machines that I am being inducted on I really want to work on my texture and construct side of my pieces, how my sample finish and spacing, placement and layout.
