Fabric Jewellery Project

The latest project that I have set my students on the Level 3 Fashion & Clothing course at South Staffordshire College concerns fabric jewellery and body adornment.  The brief is to create an accessory using various fabric manipulation and textile processes. 

The themes that I have given my students to base their item on are:
Opulence; Native; Candy Girl; Cyber; Earth Child; Antiquity

To the left is an example piece that I have created, based on the theme 'Native'.  The piece was created using scrap fabrics and various processes such as; weaving, fringing, applique, quilting and beading.
