DEC4 the Blythe house

The Blythe House is one of the Victoria and Albert Museum's growing archives holdings, mainly with Art and Designs collections, the building looked very smart on a cloudy day and entering is another feeling, seeing all the desigh collections on the wall as you went past the corridors to the room where we had detailed looks at some precious textiles pattern collections from the victoria time till recent 30 years.

they told us about how these samples were kept in a well-managed sample book, one company called Heals has got a few large sample books in very good condition, recorded their designs for more than 50 years. it is a good idea to keep your own sample book updated for when you need to find out about one single pattern.

I also had looked at some beautiful weaving samples with blurry image weaved on them, I was attracted to the technique and wanted to experiment with it.

It was a very impressive experience to come cross such large amount of design collections, I enjoyed it and glad to be able to use it later on as my reference for my work.
