Clare Thornton waxes lyrical about waxed cotton

Clare Thornton's project is progressing well and we have been lucky enough to have seen some samples of the waxed cotton that Halley Stevensons produce. Clare also did a presentation to DJCAD Textile Design students in advance of their Craft Festival Scotland project called Craft Interventions. The students art interventions, were specially made for different sites around the college and were unveiled on the same night as the Craft Research Exposition which opened last week: http://craftresearch.blogspot.com/2010/03/future-craft-invite.html

Clare has already met with DJCAD staff and visiting lecturers Frances Stevenson (see her work in the Research Expo mentioned above) and Fiona Jardine (artist based in Glasgow).
