One Small Statement, One Giant Fashion Show

One small statement of assessment to finish for next week it’s simple.  Moodle download the statement of assessment template ready for the masterpiece.  As the ready made on-going statement masterpiece compiled throughout the project is primed for cut and paste technique.  Yes, Houston we have a problem. 
The giant editing of epic on going statement of assessment musings will be required. 

Amazing how many jobs you need to do instead of the statement of assessment.

The 4 textiles and mixed media artwork s selected for Craft Campus shop required labelling, pricing and finishing.  These tricky wee jobs take up a lot of time.

Self-adhesive Labels with wording, typography and permitted inclusion of Camille’s Appeal logo.

The postcard label with art details, full price donated minus Craft Campus Shop15% commission, permitted Camille’s Appeal logo and their aims information. 
 
The postcard label attached with recycled knitted wool via recycled ribbon loop inserted between backing and mount board.  Ethical recycled bag packaging of the artwork produced with old curtains and spare wool.   


The tough job of attending the Eclectic Claes fashion show is a sacrifice that must be made in the interest of research. 
Research of inspiring work of 1st and 2nd HND Art & Design students combined with a sneaky peek at the stall selling stock from the Craft Campus shop. 

Yes yours truly artwork on sale with 85% proceeds going to the Camille Appeal – both scary and exciting to see the display. If no one buys the artwork the profile of Camille Appeal has been raised.

The fashion show wonderful creations by gianted talented students inspired lots of photos.  I am no professional photographer and concerns about permission issues prevent display on blog.  Excuses eh!
The fashion show's professional photographers taking far better images and hopefully they will be on the Internet soon.   
2nd night out with the best time had - but now -  I MUST I MUST finish statement of assessment before Friday 17th May deadline date .
