Jillian Morris

Most of my work starts it's life on one of my table or tapestry looms. My ideas are usually supported by sketchbooks and samples, but being a relatively slow process also allows for design development, and an element of serendipity as I weave, which keeps it interesting.
I sometimes dye my own yarns and fibres, either for use in my work, or to sell alongside my scarves and bags at 'woolly' craft fairs.

I began weaving with paper for a college project using African banknotes - souvenirs of travel, as a design source. I made my own paper weft yarns by printing, cutting, tearing and manipulating sheets of paper and paper ribbons.

Much of my current woven work uses commercial paper yarns, which have underpinned the evolution into 3D work. This is often incorporated with other techniques such as paint and stitch, and sometimes embellished with found or recycled objects.
