Module Two – Chapter Ten

 

‘PIECING’ – A METHOD OF CUTTING AND SEAMING

PAPER METHOD

I have completed the samples as set out in the Chapter. The way in which the patterns develop is intriguing, particularly when one thinks that it is only two colours that are being used.

I decided to develop a couple more designs of my own. This one was developed from cutting strips of alternating colours into triangle shapes and then reconnecting them.

In another design I used the alternating strips cut into different widths and then reconnected them in a regular pattern.

FABRIC METHOD

I did this piece until I couldn’t sew the seams any more. It certainly made me realise how much variation and texture can be achieved by simply cutting and re-joining.
