For the second part of this workshop I purchased some eyelets and brightly coloured embroidary thread, along with some black and neon coloured card as to begin experimenting with my idea. While creating the below I found inserting and securing the eyelets in place to be a lengthy process. This was due in part to my packet of eyelets only containing one side and only having to hand a craft-knife, scissors and the said materials. I used the craft-knife to effectively separate the backs to the eyelets into sections, this allowed for them to be flattened against the card. I felt if I had access to a hammer perhaps this would have helped along the process of flattening the eyelets back against the card.

After discussing my progress with our tutor Nick, I decided joining the letters of the word up would be a pleasant aesthetic touch. I decided to begin planning on where the eyelets would be positioned for the next session on a separate piece of paper. This was also to be used in terms of gauging whether I had enough eyelets to carry the project forward or whether I needed to purchase more.
