Breathe:

On the Wednesday night session me and another Breathe maker had to help in the supervising of a working session.
The work we overlooked was a weaving workshop, this was to re create sections of weave that would be used to create skirts a different dance section of Breathe.

This workshop was interesting to work on as we needed to develop the working process so that it was as simple and effect as possible to create a lot of woven pieces in one session. However it also needed to remain quite simple so the volunteers would remain engaged with the workshop and enjoy it.

Together we managed to find the simplest solution for the workshop. As supervisors we created a right angle with two strips of fabric- the waist length was cut so that it would create half of the waist measurements of each of the actors wearing the skirts
- this was done in pairs so that it made up a full skirt size

. The volunteers then had to choose strips of fabrics to pin horizontally and vertically on the right angled strips
. Strips were then machine stitched in place and once secured woven by hand

Below is an image of one of the final pieces:
