Final year is here!

It is September, the beginning of my final year of my textiles degree, and I am excited!
Despite tutorials which have left me no less confused, after what seemed like such a long summer, I am ready to get my teeth into some designing and get my hands messy in the studio. This year we have two design units- a ten week exploratory and research project; followed by a final major project which sees me through to April/May. Not forgetting dissertation and critical reflection of course!
All of these units are self directed, meaning I propose with each what I will be studying, which comes with it's own pros and cons.
Currently I am trying to decide on a topic for my dissertation whilst also trying to condense my ideas for my exploration and research project. At the moment I am juggling around with the themes of floral, decay, changing seasons, and the sky... rather vague to say the least! With a new University year comes a new set of resolutions, one of these being that I will regularly blog throughout the whole year (come rain, more than likely anxious tears, or shine) so I can share my final year progress and more importantly final year result. Wish me luck!
