Fruit Shoot

 

Following on from the hamster shoot, the reason I had initially set up a photography area was to photograph some bits and bobs for the new textiles project.
I started by chopping up a melon and a pomegranate to have a look at the seeds and take patterns from them.

Then moved on to using the seeds- pomegranate ones don't really work but the melon ones are fab!!
I threaded some of the melon seeds onto embroidery thread and then played around with placement.

And then, just to round it off. I had a go at some paper manipulation!

All in all, a pretty good evenings work I think!!
