if i were a textile designer…

Friday, February 20th, 2009

I love fabrics and textile design, but it wasn’t until I was on my trip around the South Island of New Zealand that I ever felt compelled to consider putting any designs to paper or the digital equivalent. Of course I haven’t, but if I had such talents I’d base some of the work on these incredible sand and water formations. I took these photos by Farewell Spit: the first two are of sand dunes, while the third is closer to the water on the beach.

A zipper pouch made for a friend using Lara Cameron’s Bonsai Forest in deep red. Thankfully I nabbed a decent amount of this fabric so more sewing to be done!
