Textile Design
My project explores how slow, contemplative textile processes can foster a reconnection with my practice, deepening both personal and material relationships. Emerging as a response to burnout, it honours my childhood self’s fearless approach to creativity. Every element of this quilt has been lovingly crafted with my own hands, through natural dyeing, eco-printing, spinning, stitching, and felting with foraged and repurposed natural materials.
