Coiling is a basketry process and has been used by most cultures for centuries.
Coiling strengthens the fabric so it can be twisted and manipulated to produce 3D forms.
How to begin:
- Cut a length of fabric roughly 30cm long.
- Choose a thread that is not too fine.
- Lay the fabric down, then place the thread about 30mm on top of the fabric.
- While holding the fabric and thread fold it over and then start to wrap.
- Once you have wrapped as much of the fabric as you want
- To finish off tie the end of the wrapping thread to secure.
