End of term show

Well, term ended without any time for a breather and I was straight off on holiday which explains the lack of recent posts. The final weeks of term saw mad rushes to complete final units for some students, leaving parties and lots of tears, awards ceremonies, masses of paperwork, trying to keep the As level Textiles group motivated to the end, along with putting up work for A level verification, taking it down again and putting up a display of some of the lovely pieces from this year's textiles groups. So here's some pictures of the work they've been hard at this year.

sophistication from Lauren and Edie

It's not all about the end pieces though. Here's one of Caitlin's drawings of lighthouses which led to lots of experimentation and ended in designs for skirts and dresses.
