My progression project is about “Teapots”.

I used teapots as an inspiration for my textile ideas. I studied teapot patterns from different parts of the world. I found it very interesting to see how one object could be made in many ways, using different materials and techniques by various groups of people from different cultures. I chose this topic because my grandmother loves collecting teapots from places she has travelled to, and I have been admiring her collection since I was young. I have been impressed by handcraft techniques and drawing pattern designs. I want to turn them into fashion textiles by using weave, knit and print technique. I also applied fun ideas and patterns such as teapot houses and teapots with floral designs, in my work.
