I am a final year textiles student specialising in print design, I use a combination of screen printing and digital printing techniques within my work and am passionate about textiles for interiors.

The Making of my Final Project

My Final Collection

My final collection has been inspired by my grandparents who in their early careers, worked at The Shepshed Lace, a textile manufacturing company famous for manufacturing lace and elastic.

My project aims to celebrate and honour traditions and craftsmanship that has been lost over time and to rediscover a once thriving industry. I have been particularly interested in exploring the texture and shapes within lace and the machines that they were made from and how that can translate to print design.

I produced my final collection by using screen printing techniques and methods to honour the hands on craftsmanship that was used within The Shepshed Lace.
