trams and colour. steelwires and paperworks.


Yesterday I bought a new sewingmachine, so finally I can do some work at home. But right now, almost all my time goes to school so ot much time left for extra creativity.
The postitive this is, that soon soon we get to start working on our first individual project; skirts. I am trying to sketch mine tonight and the inspiration is a mix between magic flower, a papertoy, and the tramnet. Could be interesting. Also, the weddingdress is almost finished and this weekend I have some other projects in mind... So keep have faith in me. I am on it.

japanese style.

Crazy days. But here I am now, at the Cutters Academy in Gothenburg. Hoping that this year of cutting and sewing will learn me something and give me a base to stand on.
Today, the secoond day, we worked in groups and made clothes with inspiration from origami that we will present tomorrow. This is what we made. The fabric is almost like plastic but hard, like the type you make umbrellas of. I got so inspired, that I ran to the library directly after school and borrowed the book Complete origami and other paper foldingbooks. I might not want a hole dress of paper, but it is an interesting technique. And probobly the funniest way to start the schoolyear.
