First A Level piece finished!

Putting this here because it isn’t wearable so isn’t fashion. It is much more a textile piece, just happens to be a corset underneath. (Still haven’t figured out why we had to do the corset, but was an interesting process).
Anyhoo, our topic was organic form and there was such a range of different projects going on - about 12 in class and no 2 projects were alike. It was great fun!
I chose to do jellyfish, inspired by the phrase ‘immortal blobs of jelly’ someone had said in the first mind mapping session.
This is the finished piece.
I’m really happy with it and I get a good mark for it.

Wow! I really like the textures and the colors.I totally thought of jelly fish before reading what you wrote.

Nicely done! I, too, clearly see the jellyfish. Very cool!

Its very cute, but why do you say not wearable? make it a few sizes larger and I would so wear this to the beach

Oh yes, jellyfish are obviously in this piece. Love the colours of the sea. Great job!

There was only 1 pattern so no choice of size. If I had longer I might have looked at making a bigger one but it wasn’t possible. It was handed in on Friday and we’re now on to the next component - doing prep work for exam in May!

This is fascinating and beautiful! There’s a summer festival that I would definitely wear this to.

Thank you for all lovely comments on this. Just thought I’d update to say that I got feedback on it today and it was all very positive. If I continue at the same level of work I’m in for a good solid grade B👍

I’m really happy with that, and glad that I went to college today.
