My Work....

After looking at more maps, the map that stood out to me the most was the tram map, not only are the trams iconic to Manchester but the bold graphic colours stood out to me.  I started to draw more from this and started to like the results more than what I was doing before. I went into the machine room to begin sampling my ideas, which are shown below. 

These were just sowing onto strips of bias binding and webbing, i like the results of the the lines and colours together, but I need to find a better surface to sew into, maybe something more delicate and paper like but that can still hold its structure when folded. 

This piece was weaving the bias binding having sewn into it, I like it but think it could be developed further to make it more interesting.  The piece on the right here is sewing into bubble wrap, I like the texture of bubble wrap and how it is transparent but you cant see everything clearly. I want to carry on working with materials that are see-through and allow the light through.
