Here are some of my images from college.

I have been lucky enough to returned to education as a mature student to study fabric design. In the past have made my own clothes, knitted garments and altered clothes to make them up to date or look different. Always taken an interest in fashion, fabric and the construction of garments. Also attended a jewellery design and making course working in silver and gold and still wearing some of my pieces today but gave most of them away as presents ! Spent alot of time restoring old furniture for my home instead of buying new and had some unique stuff !!

Terence Conran

 Terence Conran fabrics from the 1960s.



Terence Conran established two manufacturing companies during the 1950s, Conran furniture and Conran fabrics. He  he sources textiles and furnishings from number of companies. Many of these goods were not available elsewhere in Britain. Prices below to enable customers to replace household items every few years as fashions change the products were displayed in mass and within easy reach by the end of the decade, habitat had nine UK branches. Terence Conran changed the way we shopped and furnished our houses back in the 1960s. Today Terence Conran is still designing furniture for the home.
