Quilt

Sydney Secondary College Blackwattle Bay Campus

Maggie McCombie

"Nature inspired, the use of different block patterns and other decorative techniques creates interest and variation on the quilt. Due to it being so large, variety in the blocks is essential so it is appealing to the eye."

Images of Work

"One manufacturing technique that contributes to the success of my Major Textiles Project was to use of different block patterns to create interest and variation on the quilt. Due to it being so large, variety in the blocks is essential so it is appealing to the eye."

"One decorative technique that ties the quilt together is the needle-turn appliqué circles in the centre. These circles create a focal point so they eye is drawn towards the centre, and then the line of sight travels outwards. These appliquéd circles also feature both machine and hand embroidery."

Select Student Folio Pages

The pages selected for each project reflect the individual students' interpretations of the syllabus guidelines for the MTP. Each student should develop their folio according to the guidelines, relating to their own individual project. This may result in a variety of presentation styles, numbers of sketches and/or experiments.
