Today I did lots of weaving. I made a diy loom from an old photo frame and learnt some amazing new techniques. Inspied by my research on flowers, I picked some flowers, leaves and various plants which I then wove into the weaves and I absolutely love how they turned out. This is definitely something that I want to use into my final collection. However this process is very time consuming so I will only be able to use it for small details such as pockets, hems and maybe collars.
I also made a mock up of a mini zine using some the drawings, lyrics, quotes and pressed flowers that I've collected in my book. I really love how it turns out and I can start to imagine what a final zine could look like. It only has 5 pages so for a final zine I want to make it about 10-15 pages and around A5 size probably. To progress this zine further I need to start making more collages and art work which I can use to influence my designs but will primarily be for zine. However, I want to start focusing on design now so I will probably leave the zine to one of the last things that I do as I don't think it will be too time consuming to make.
