Woollen Mermaids # 2 - The Cut-Outs!


Working off my inspirational images, reading about Annette Kellerman and the one piece theme i started designing and came up with a series of working sketches.
Mostly all working off the ideas of shirring or gathering and some form of cut outs.

With the test fabric i started working with shirring and cutouts to see how they looked and how good the finish was.

So i decided that from my samples that the fabric worked well with the cuts outs and did not fray so i did not need to worry and the finish of the fabric and could leave the edges raw.
i then set to work on the size and positioning of the diamond cuts outs.
