I have been short-listed for the Bristol Cloth Design Competition. My design was inspired by the large chains on the dockside in Bristol. The chain link design represents links in the community – links to the past, links between local producers e.g. the sheep farmers and dye maker who provided the raw materials for the competition.

The chains are rusted on the surface but beneath this the metal is strong, clean and shiny.

The finalists are now on display at Bristol 2015: Green Capital LabSpace on the Harbourside in Bristol until the end of September, for the public to vote for their favourite. If you are in the vicinity, please vote for me!
