I am a textile designer from Yorkshire, specialised in knitted textiles, with a passion for technical fabrication. I work mainly on industrial and domestic knitting machines, although I often include elements of traditional handwork such as lacing, crochet, macramé and hand knitting. I work with materials which are redundant. Dead-stock yarns and waste construction materials. Taking unconventional waste products and designing new methods of production excites me. Industrial machines are designed to work with new, perfect materials, so working with waste can be challenging. I enjoy the unpredictable outcomes of creating around these limitations. I have a strong love for colour and believe that any material can be beautiful when placed in the right context. Graduated with a first class honours from BA Textile Design at Central Saint Martins (2021).

Well, I'm stumped! The 2016 Thread's Challenge in conjunction with the Association of Sewing and Design Professionals is "The Quilted Garment." For some reason, the competition interested me, so I decided to enter the challenge. I have yet to be inspired :( Here's the criteria of the competition, “Quilting” is defined here as two or more textile layers joined by hand- or machine-stitching, and you must do the quilting yourself. Choose any fabrics that inspire you. Quilting cotton is not required, nor is traditional quilt batting. The garments don’t have to be pieced. The quilting itself should be the star. The stitching must meaningfully contribute to the structure, silhouette, and/or embellishment of the garment. Here's a little of what I've found in my searching for inspiration. The above coat is from the 2015 couture collection by Schiaparelli. I have no idea is the fabric is hand quilted, but I know I will not be doing anything similar to this. I do like the use of textiles in the coat below. This is simple and yet a lot of work. I think it may be a Kantha quilt. This coat is from Fendi and except for the pocket, I think it's lovely, but not very inspiring. This coat is from Valentino and I think it is absolutely amazing. This piece I did find interesting. I love the mix of textiles. In this close up picture, you can see how the red fabric is stitched so that it is actually raised off the bed of the jacket. Another piece from Valentino. Not so sure about the one shoulder aspect,but I do love the piecing. Dramatic and yet subtle. This is not a quilted piece, but I do like the stitching idea. Quilting a piece with beads on a solid ground. Here's a piece that is quilted and then the faces are stitched over the quilting. I included this coat as I think it is a great use of color. It's from Bjork. Not quite sure why the yo-yos weren't taken into the armpit. So here's how I'm feeling. The picture below makes me think of being tied into a straight jacket! I'm simply stuck. But then, I could just grab an old quilt and make a dress!!!! This won't happen :) So today, I'm asking for some help, maybe a little direction. The competition is based more on the actual quilting of the fabric rather than the piecing. Is there anything that inspires you? I'm up for any inspiration that will come my way. Thanks so much :) Rhonda

For as long as women have been sewing, they've been using embroidery to tell their own stories—often in societies that refuse to hear them otherwise.
