PARALLEL PRACTICES IN FASHION AND ARCHITECTURE

Hello fellow AMFET team members. I'm finally blogging!
I've placed a link below that is worth checking out. I may have spoken about an exhibit at MOCA in Los Angeles a few years ago that featured pieces that converted from furniture to wearable pieces. This is also a collaboration project. Let me know your thoughts. I think it's fascinating!

Just for fun Isaac


Ya gotta love him, I want to spend a weekend with him, meet his mom.

Our meeting tonight

Hi Ladies, I enjoyed the meeting. A, thank you for the tutoring to do this, it isn't too difficult so far.

I am excited about all the possibilities with the elements mentioned.

Y~ I suggest we keep this a private blog, who needs to see our thoughts and ideas? I realize as you say how difficult it must be for others find people, however - well, just call me paranoid.

I will post the sketches and graphic ideas after we privatize so I can share it with Kathie and you A and Y as reference for our discussion in the meeting today.

team meeting friday afternoon


we are enjoying the weather in the back yard while finishing up details on our applications. This was a magazine issue showing a "victorian -ish" collar.... in sterling silver!

texture and construction = pattern


this is one of my favorite images for the planned random assembly- almost like mosaic, using the rough frayed edges to augment the pattern, constructed over elegant and transparent lace....
