The final piece of work was a fashion accessory or item to wear but not a garment.
I bought fan sticks and designed this fan.
I printed it using transfer print techniques and then embroidered it using traditional Japanese embroidery in silk threads.
I made the fan reversible, to give the user a choice, although this is the one I consider to be the front.
The back of the fan, with a different print.
The fan was made up and then hand stitched to the fan sticks.
I also screen printed the design onto cotton fabric and used the fabric to make a box to keep the fan in.
The box is entirely hand stitched with no glue to hold it together.
