Throughout this unit I have continued to develop my work. I
have took initial inspiration and artist influence and used it to firstly
create a body of drawing and patch ideas then sampling in the practice unit and
now onto working an finished quilts. I have improved my skills in terms of
material choice and edgings. There are clear links from my initial research and inspiration throughout my body of work.

| Patch idea collages |

| Geometric quilt |
I have experimented with a variety quilting techniques and
threads for example poly thread double thickness quilting thread and embroidery
thread finding that it is in fact embroidery thread that works best for my
quilts as it is thick enough to see but doesn’t distract from the patchwork
pattern which the double thickness and varied threads seemed to do.
I have found specific things that work well for example
colour matching blue and orange and used this throughout. After hand in I will continue
to develop and create quilts for both the Gawtorpe brief but also for my own
personal practice.
