Happy Easter everyone!! Hope you are all having a lovely Bank Holiday weekend and up to some exciting stuff. Mine will be spent designing as its a race against the clock to get these designs finished and deadline day is lurking around the corner. Although its a gloomy, drizzly day and I'm inside designing and blogging, I do have my good friends Coffee and Chocolate to accompany me through it all (and a big roast dinner on the way!)

The A3 design above was inspired by shadows and has just used fine liners. I plan to play around with the scale of my designs to see how they accompany other pieces in my collection and I'm also continuing to experiment with colour to maybe sit alongside the monochrome.

Enjoy the weekend and lets hope the weather picks up for next week! I best get on finishing this design but I'm hoping to be posting most days on here, so please check in :)

As this is my first post, I best introduce myself and give you an insight into my design world and my love of doodling! I'm Hannah and am currently in the process of completing my final major project in Textile Design at the Birmingham Institute of Art and Design.
It's taken me a while to figure myself out and try to figure out what kind work I want to do as a printed textile designer. My work throughout this project has been very illustrative and detailed. My sketchbook and fine liners come with me everywhere I go and throughout this project I have found something which I thoroughly enjoy (minus the crippled hand from the amount of drawings I have done) - but my monochrome collection of designs inspired by architecture and our modern day surroundings have become a major part of my life over the past 3 months and I have a real passion for the work I'm creating as a designer.
I will be keeping you updated on my design journey throughout the last month of my project and hope you enjoy my work.
Below is a snippet one of my designs from last week layering mesh over my 'tangled lines' piece.
