Amy Senogles is a graduate from MMU Embroidery and she came in to give us a talk and a workshop. It was good to hear what she did on her degree, the themes in her work and what she has been doing since. She focused more on textiles for fashion and brought in her 3rd year work. She used mainly reclaimed fabrics in her work which is something I am very interested in. She also used the embroidery on vintage hankies and table clothes as inspiration for her embroidery and even worked over the top.
She then did a workshop with us on couching, which is a technique that fastens yarn or other materials to a ground fabric. Here are the samples I produced.
