Tutorial with Jane McKeating
- research qualities of linen as a fabric twisting, cutting, burning it etc to understand how it behaves.
- incorporate this knowledge into my pocket samples.
- beware of using the laser cutter as it's all been done before.
- Jane to find out if Hollings offer any technology workshops for fashion students that I could join.
I love the pristine paper qualities of the holland linen
