/ After scoring is applied to a swatch, I asked myself what other techniques could I apply? I started twisting the strips in the other direction. The effect is an ombre-like effect.

/ To enhance the two-sided quality of the fabric, I bonded 2 colours with double sided fusing, Vliesofix. When this fusing is applied to fabrics it hardens, resulting in a stiffer handle. 



On twist in the other direct, then another back. 


One twist in the other direction.

Two twists in the the same direction. This produces a self-twisting agent, the fabric will naturally curl up. 


Alternating direction of twists.
