Next steps………….

Today I finally got back from Kyrgyzstan and will head to Hockley studio tomorrow to star working on the design. SO excited! 

Results :)

After a few days of waiting, I got an email saying that I won...it felt great! 

I'm so excited and honoured to be chosen by the judges and would like to express my gratitude.

Looking much forward working with Hockley team on my final design and traveling to the Saga Fur Design Centre in the near future! Woooo hoooo!

Here is the winning design! It is a seamless felted coat with a massive mink collar, which i'll be printing over with pink paint. 

Final Judging

When I was submitting my final designs to BFTA, I was faaaaaaar away in Kyrgyzstan... felting. It was impossible for me to submit my final designs in person, so I've sent everything to my friend and assistant Julia van Ijken, who like a fairy (and she dresses the part too!), delivered everything on time to BFTA office. Thank you, Julia!
