A weaver at work at Islington’s Business Design Centre. She happens to be my niece @dalia_james demonstrating her skills as a textile designer/maker on the last day of the Craft Council’s Hothouse 2019 Maker ‘First Year In’ New Designers Showcase. “Dalia’s Collection, 1859, is inspired by the colours and simple geometric shapes on the painted ceilings in Red House, William Morris’ Bexleyheath home designed in 1859. Dalia works with a range of fibres including bamboo and silk and her collection features hand dyed yarns, with colours also hand mixed in her studio.” daliajames.com @daliajamesstudio #weaving #handweaving #comtemporaryweaving #textiledesign #sustainabledesign #craftcouncil #craftcouncilhothouse2019 (at Business Design Centre) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzVqmAXliZE/?igshid=jer12b0rmq3f
