Flashback to the Easter holidays where we all met together to shoot the pattern crazy video. I was the camera man helping @lills.fashion who was the mastermind of the whole thing! We had so much fun and everyone was amazing! #fashion #fashionfilm #patterncrazy #patternfashion #video #cameraman
I have been obsessed with crustaceans over the last few weeks. Why you ask? I am not the only one since the #spoonflowerchallenge this week is - you guessed it - crustaceans. • I thought I would be clever and focus on #crabs rather than #lobster thinking that might be less common, but alas I have seen lots of crab designs coming up in my feed the last few days. • So I passed on my first and second rendition that were both in bold colors and decided to try to be noticed using minimal colors. • This is my submission. I am done. Time to obsess over another topic! • You can swipe to see the design I decided not to submit. I actually like it a lot, but you can only submit one. Did I pick the wrong one??? • #crustaceans #surfacepatterndesign #patterncrazy #nautical #underwater #sealife #motherearth #savetheplanet

Children's hand knit accessories inspired by Peru. It's so great to get all of this pattern out of my head! I see patterns everywhere. There will be more than 400 different graphs in my new book - so glad to share my madness with you ❤️ @thecrowoodpress @kingcoleltd @glosguild @dominicorr.info #peruviantextiles #handknitting #patterncrazy #knittingbook #hats #mittens #worldtextiles # #handknittersofinstagram

My Final pattern crazy garment! #fashionandtextiles #patterncrazy #patterncrazy #pattern
Just quickly showing off the trouser before I do the big reveal! Look at that movement! #fashion #patterncrazy #trousersuit
Last step of construction: sewing the shoulder pads together for extra bulk and then covering them in the lining fabric, which I then sewed into the raglan sleeve. #fashion #shoulderpads #patterncrazy #trousersuit
Gathering my ultra wide trousers into a tiny cuff. Firstly I thought that pleating it was a good idea but then I gathered it using a strong thread. The cuff was sewn on and the trousers were finished. #fashion #gathering #trousersuits #patterncrazy
Sewing the fly zip into my trousers and then neatening the top of the trousers with a waistband which was beautifully stitched in the ditch. #fashion #flyzip #patterncrazy #trousersuit
Half of my trouser which shows how it’s all going to look. I then sewed the trouser together to get the main structure. #fashion #patterncrazy
Constructing the Jean pockets on my trousers. They’re made of white cotton and worked really well with the heavier fabrics. #fashion #fashionstudent #patterncrazy
Constructing the seam inserts which is a bagged out shape using the lining fabric and green fabric. #fabric #patterncrazy #trousersuit
Making a professional finish on my jacket by bias binding the facing edge. It was hard because of all the corners but the result was worth it’s weight in gold. It has taken my jacket to another level of quality. #fashion #jacket #patterncrazy
Making fabric buttons with the proper press! #fashion #buttonmaking #patterncrazy #fashionstudent
Sewing the collar onto the jacket and then bagging out the collar and revere with the facing. I top stitched and bottom stitched. #fashion #patterncrazy #jacket #tailoring
Sewing both sets of sleeves to the bodice! The jacket is really coming together and it is taking shape! #fashion #patterncrazy #jacket
Construction of my pink pleated raglan sleeves which looked just as good as the toile. They have an armour look to them which gives the shoulders a great structure. #fashion #jacket #patterncrazy
Starting with sewing me jacket. I sewed the pintucks and then all of the drarts and side seams. #fashion #patterncrazy #jacket
Constructing me stretchy sleeve first. I overlocked it all together for that professional finish we learned from making leggings. I also used my work experiences industrial cover stitch machine which was brilliant and fast and gave the best finish to the cuffs of my sleeves. I like the look when on a person, it scrunches up the arm perfectly. #fashion #patterncrazy #fashionstudent
Cutting out my patterns from my fabric that just arrived! So excited and it looks so good! I overlocker everything after this. #fashion #patterndesign #patterncrazy #trousersuit
Making alterations on my jacket toile. I have added two darts to each front bodice and two large darts to the back which made it more fitted while keeping the jacket oversized on the body. #jacket #toile #patterncrazy #fashion
The final toile of my trouser suit. i reflected the trouser image to see what it would look like as the full thing. i really like how it came out, the jacket has the most to tweak but overall the look is just how i want it. #toile #patterncrazy #trousersuit #jacket #fashion
Finishing my toile by sewing the half trouser together and gathering it at the ankle. I then sewed the stretchy fabric to it too as a cuff. I had xuxu try it on and she displays the billowed shape of the trouser bottom. She also is showing off the jacket well too. #fashion #jacket #trouser #trousersuit #patterncrazy #toile
Making my trouser toile, bagging out the seam inserts and installing the Jean pocket! #toile #trousersuit #patterncrazy #fashion

Part two of toiling. I have made my stretchy sleeves using the fabric we used for the leggings, I used my arm to calculate how much I need to reduce the fabric to make it more fitted, I then sewed a thumb hole in there and attached them to the bodice. #fashion #toile #patterncrazy #jacket
Part one of making my toile. Here I have put the bodice together and attatched the raglan sleeves! #toile #patterncrazy #fashion #fashiondesign
Doing my costings for my fabric I have to buy!!! #fashion #costing #patterncrazy
How my raglan sleeve pattern will hopefully look after it’s been pleated and attached! #fashion #patterncutting #patterncrazy
Making pattern drafts for the front and back of my jacket. From this draft I get the bodice pattern, sleeve and collar pattern! #fashion #patterncutting #patterncrazy #jacket

This is the colourway i chose for my pattern crazy. I feel like these patterns represent my theme the best and all together the colours work very well and compliment each other and the garment. i am so excited to see if the real thing will look as good. (the yellow pattern is for the lining) #patterncrazy #patterndesign #fashion #language
Exploring different pattern ways my garment could be. It is very difficult to choose because i like all my patterns and i want to show them all off. My limit is 3-4 patterns on my garment. i like all the combinations i was able to create, its the freedom that came from making so many designs. it is important to include different types of patterns and patterns of different sizes and form, across techniques so i can show the full process of this project. #fashion #fashiondesign #colourway #patterndesign #patterncrazy #language
My final pattern crazy design. I have tried to relate it to languages forms as much as i can. There is some fabric manipulations and lines within the garment that are all drawn from my samples lines, like the pockets are from Viking runes and the seam inserts are from Chinese characters in my collage. I am even deciding to use stretchy fabric, which will be interesting. i think this is achievable but also very out there. i am extremely happy with this and cannot wait to make it. #fashion #fashiondesign #patterncrazy #language
A mood board i created to inspire my design process. I'm really focusing on creating an out there but commercial garment so it can appropriately fit the clients needs. #fashion #design #fashiondesign #patterncrazy #language
These are my Cecil Touchon inspired repeat patterns. They are mostly continuous versions of the samples. These would make amazing graphic fabrics. This is the last of the repeat patterns i made for pattern crazy so its now time to show my further steps. #patternmaking #patterncrazy #language #collage
A before of what the collages looked like, they mostly don’t mean anything, they are an interpretation of letters from these languages. #fashion #patterncrazy #collage
My collages which are an artist response to @ceciltouchon My collages feature a range of languages like Tagalog (BayBayin), Ligala (Nkoma) and Chinese text etc. I love how graphic they are and how they are completely transformed into an unreadable but now purely artistic form. #fashion #patterncrazy #fashion #collage
My indigo based patterns, i got a surprising amount of results from this especially since a lot of them looked very similar. This has captured the essence of my project. #language #patternmaking #patterncrazy #fashion #indigo #shibori
My samples and repeat patterns from my cyanotype samples. i am in love with how they turned out, they are super clean and display the languages perfectly. i used Viking runes and Cyrillic text as my inspirations. the patterns reflect their languages too and have provided very intricate and geometric designs. #patternmaking #cyanotype #fashion #language #patterncrazy
Developing my cyanotype in the UV rays from the sun. This is my first time making a cyanotype. i used a design i made online, printed onto acetate and hopefully it will be a very clean look. #cyanotype #language #fashion #patterncrazy
My repeat patterns from my heat transfer samples. These have to be my most interesting and colourful yet! #patterncrazy #fashion #patternmaking #heattransfer #language
My heat print samples. i love the layering i have achieved, the amount of language types i have included and the great potential for repeat patterns. #language #patterncrazy #heatprinting #textiles #fashion
Some of the repeat patterns made from my flour paste screen prints. They are so beautiful and have so much variation. they are perfect for fabric designs. #patterncrazy #language #patternmaking #fashion
My flour paste screen printing samples. They are so vibrant! I worked into a lot of them and it really enhanced them. They are inspired by Tamil's language and Cyrillic text. #language #flourpasteresist #flourpastescreen #patterncrazy #fashion
My repeat patterns i made from monoprinting, i like the variation and the coloured ones a lot. i like that i now have a good black and white pattern option too. #fashion #patterncrazy #language #patternmaking
These are my favourite monoprinting samples, you can see the different tools used in their unique mark making. I included ones I worked into and they really bring in a new dimension. #patterncrazy #fashion #language #monoprinting
Creating my monoprinting samples. I tried to use various strange tools to mark make like tooth brushes, rubber rollers, pallets knifes, forks etc. the results really transformed my language theme into unreadable and more interpretable art forms, I later worked into some of them with watercolours. #fashion #textiles #monoprinting #language #patterncrazy
My repeat patterns i created from my breakdown screen print samples. #textiles #breakdownprinting #patterncrazy #patterndesign
