Beryl Taylor Inspired Bag

Thought I'd share some of the day job with you today, This is a project I'm running at school at the moment. It's inspired by the textile artist Beryl Taylor. It's a good project for teaching a range of decorative skills and the girls are happy as it's a bag, quite easy really :) Mixture of skills used, Free machine Embroidery, Felt embellishments, layering/applique fabrics with beads and buttons. Hope you like :)

  5. Lovely bag, a great way of showing lots of different techniques :) Have wished I'd taken textiles as a GCSE many times, what year groups do you teach?
