    I could see the alligator print as a quilting fabric. Loved seeing all your me-mades. The Sophie scarf turned out fabulous as did the hats and collar. But your woven garments are the best! Thanks for taking us along

      Thank you so much!! It’s funny you mention quilting fabric, I was just talking to Ryan yesterday about how I want to learn more about that industry.. it would be SO fun to create fabrics for crafters! I need to learn more!! Thank you again for your love, kindness, and support 🥹❤️

      Ahhh thank you, that is so kind of you! 🥹❤️ I’m hoping to figure out how to actually produce things with my designs on them, but that’s a whole challenge I haven’t had time to tackle yet with school being so crazy.. someday!! 🥲

    I agree the texture map makes a real difference very hard to visualise it without glad it made a difference for your presentation,time to get a couple of pieces of ply wood the size of your presentation card to safely carry your presentation to and from collage, love the start of your fish design

    Your journey is so exciting. Love the tablecloth. But the fish pattern is so fun. I like to imagine what designs I would make. Using your past experience is such a natural process in Art. Keep it up. Stay strong.

    I just bought some Midnatssol by CaMaRose yarns recently and learnt that they use Tencel as the centre yarn for the baby alpaca/merino mix to spin onto. It's a nice yarn to sub for mohair if you have an allergy/aversion to that fiber. It's SO soft! I think it could be fun to find some Tencel mix to weave with in the future, so maybe if find it before me, can you share Alex? ♥ 😂

    • @AndreaAlexander
      @AndreaAlexander  Рік тому +1

      Ooooh I need to look into that!! I adore mohair but am always looking for fun fluffy yarns. Check out the link in my description for the yarn I used for my Sophie scarf - that one is a silk/seaweed based tencel mix and I LOVED it!
