To experiment with stitching I am going to be using archive images and stitching them with red string/ thread. I have chosen this colour for the stitching, because it represents love and the blood that unifies us all together. I am going to be stitching myself when I was a baby, so that I could present that I am the result of my mum and dad’s union together and how I am surrounded by their love and share their blood. I will also be stitching photographs that I have taken of my mum, dad and sister together, so that I am able to stitch around my sister in the same coloured thread to present the same thing.

Photos Used?

Archive Images:

Photoshop

First, I screen shot the image I wanted to use.

Then, I used the red ballpoint pen to draw the stitches.
