Feathers



Wedding Culture Expo held in Nanjing, China on Saturday, March 28, 2009
The dress is composed of 2009 peacock feathers and required 8 craftsmen 2 months to finish!

Working with feathers in my weaving has got me thinking about the potential qualities feathers can bring to a garment. Ok so the wedding dress may be a little over the top, but there is no denying the stunning visual appearance of these natural objects.

Below are images of eggs and feathers collected from a farm near where I live at home in Wales.
