Boogie: Giving it a new spin!

If you follow my blog regularly, you'll know that I have been working much paler recently, and am now adding a little brightness to that... to give a new spin to my design work!

Here's a series of images showing how the new slow bag design - Boogie - is developing so far.















The pattern for giving the cloth a new spin.



















Drawn out in... yes, Kaye you guessed it... biro!



















The first blade stitched and cut (the reverse applique technique that I am so fond of using).



















The second blade stitched and cut.



















The second blade stitched and cut, and shot on one of those clever angles that always makes work look 100 x more interesting than it might ordinarily appear to be ;}



















The third blade stitched and cut.















The final blade stitched and cut.















Here's the first upcycled denim patch with all the blades finished.















Now for some kantha!








Photoshopping... a sneak preview of where this is headed.















The reverse of the reverse applique. Not too messy.



















First patch done! How great is that?

More later!
