Assignment 4: Sommer Schneller

This project, as I quickly learned, is very dynamic in nature. What I found is that a surface texture can be as complicated — or uncomplicated — as you choose. Clearly, the more pieces used to pattern the object, the more realistic it is. I might have taken on a job possibly more than I thought I could do at first but after working out the complexities, I realized that it’s quite possible with time. I approached this water bottle shape in a very modular fashion, as the symmetry of the object I aimed to keep in the final sewn project. However, despite this, I still ran into difficulties creating dips in the surface because I did not know how to achieve this. Nevertheless, I’m pretty satisfied with the outcome of this project, for the level of knowledge I walked in with.
