2.3 DRAWING WITH STITCH.

Moving forward to this assignment I’ve decided to follow a different route:

I ‘m cutting pieces from the paper manipulation assignment and then I will stitch them up.

stitch crossovers with continuous yarns.

I have decided to use this piece of paper from my previous assignment as I didn’t include this in my paper manipulation take 2 version.

I’ve stitched it onto the carton paper in order to create layers.

I’ve done some stitching(in black and shiny white) on the lower layer

two different yarns used in this : acrylic tape yarn and hard polyester

I had to be really careful with this as it was tissue paper and it was very delicate. I’ve stitched a piece of ribbon onto it.

4 different stars created with stitch

polyester yarn fed through the tiny holes.

Ribbon, tape yarn, all stitched together on a delicate wrapping paper.

Draw thread yarn stitched following vertical lines created from folding.

I’ve tried to stitch on top of the handle used as a yarn as well as stabilize it on the paper bag

I’ve folded all the layers together and tried to stitch them up

view from the front.

I found the back quite interesting as well.

Yarn stitched across in order to create to horizontal and a vertical line

ribbon stitched on the side and a flower created on the folded lines.

Black acrylic yarn stitched to secure the sandpaper and white tape yarn that goes through holes.

I had to use a large needle with a big hook in order to be able to feed the tape yarn through the holes of this carton paper.

It was quite interesting process of seeing how paper is been transformed by stitching.Took me a while to figure ways around it but I’m quite pleased with what I’ve achieved.
