Need to get moving!

I really need to sit down one evening and do my student finance! Apparently it takes up to an hour so need to get cracking might do it tonight hmmm.

What I've been up to

Last week at college I done lots of printing, it's so easy and quick! Mainly focusing on lino printing hopefully this week I get to try some more, different types of printing!! Also tried knitting wasn't too bad at it surprisingly. Used the heat press for the first time last week, it made some amazing designs and so simple. 

More interviews

UWE, UWIC and UCA have all offered me interviews :D 

Interviews..

Uni's are starting to reply to my offers I already have an interview for UCA Farnham to study Textiles with Fashion and Interiors eeek. Also UWIC have offered me an interview for 2 weeks time! I asked for an alternative date because 2 weeks is way too soon. Plus I need to get my portfolio together!!!! It's all happening so fast it's scary (ahhh)... but exciting :D 

Issues

I'm having a major issue starting my new sketch book. I keep starting it then ripping out pages because I don't like them. Maybe I'm being fussy but I really want this sketch book to be unique and amazing because it's one of the sketch books I'm taking to my interviews for uni. Hopefully by tomorrow I will have some idea of how to start it...

Designing

Today at college we chose what we wanted to do for our final Fashion/Textiles outcomes. I chose to incorporate a bit of Fashion and Textiles into my outcome. For my textiles final piece I want to create a printed patterned wallpaper with maybe a cushion of chair cover. All of these outcomes will have the same pattern that we design from our brief, Magnification. Looking at the idea of cells and Magnified objects etc. For my Fashion outcome we all have to do the same items of clothing but with our own unique pattern on. We have to create a Cape, Tie and Collar that uses fabrics that link in well with each other, also that link with the theme of Magnification. We created drawings and colour samples to link with Autumn Fashion and Interior colour's. I decided to look at purples, pinks, plums, creams and oranges for my colour's. I'm excited to get started and decide on my pattern so I can get PRINTING :D
