Muku Mania: a documentation of the progress of my BFA senior thesis project at PNCA

For my senior thesis at The Pacific Northwest College of Art, I will be exploring the theme of narrative through the creation of a line of products. By placing a quirky and lovable character into context and providing an array of applications, each item will appeal to my target audience through light-hearted and innovative design.

New Fabric and Embroidery Threads for Muku Mania handmade wares!








I'll talk about the photos in order from top to bottom:
1. This close up shot of my embroidery thread really shows the texture of the wool and cotton threads nicely.
2. This old wooden ammunition case made for a nice prop and display case for my embroidery threads and fabrics.
3. Whiskey kitty's pose in this pic makes me want to reach out and touch this fabric... it's so soft and cuddly!
4. Whiskey kitty helping arrange the flowers in this shot... best little helper ever!
5. the wools and cotton fabrics look so beautiful in this shot and really show off how nice they actually are
6. This shot captures most all of the fabrics in a gradient from light to dark. From left to right: white cotton, light blue faux fur, robins egg blue cashmere, olive wool, butternut yellow wool, ochre wool (it actually looks really olive in these shots), antique gold cashmere, heather gray wool, and black felt.
7. the whole kittin-caboodle :)
8. Birds eye view of everything.
I am so excited to start dying some of the white cotton fabric and the white cotton T-shirts that I have ordered. Soon to be posted! As well as the plush toys, bandanas and scarves that I will be making from these beautiful fabrics!
