Race for Life

In July I will be doing the Race for Life in Reading with my 11 year old daughter and my big sister. I would be really grateful if anyone stumbling over this post could consider sponsoring me via the following link (it is easy and safe!). Thank you!

Designing an accessory - initial process

I first sketched out some possible garment options with a variety of positions for buttons or brooches (drawings 1 & 2):













Then, as there has been a considerable gap since I worked on this module, I decided to work from some of the original images and do some fresh paper exercises:

Drawings 3 & 4













Drawings 5 & 6













Drawings 7 & 8













Drawings 9 & 10













Drawings 11, 12 & 13




























Then I used cut out windows to audition potential designs. Here is a selection of some of them:

Drawings 14 & 15













Drawings 16 & 17













Drawings 18 & 19

















Finally, I prepared some small mock-ups of how possible shapes/sizes of brooch/button could sit on the garment:
