I'm Heather Forsyth, a final year textile design BA (Hons) student from Nottingham Trent University. I am a passionate print designer with a strong eye for colour and pattern. 

​

I am inspired by beautifully illustrated books and this love for books inspired my graduate collection 'Greenthumbed Fables' which focuses heavily on heritage and craft. This has grown from my own heritage and interest in Stoke-on-Trent and ceramics. 

​

With a passion for artistry, I have an interest in both interiors and fashion and love to keep on top of trends and research within these areas. I have an excellent eye and passion for colour and love to experiment with designs. 

​

During my degree, I have found a love for hand painting and illustration, as well as digital techniques. Creating patterns by hand has enabled me to understand the techniques involved. I am very confident with CAD and love to combine hand and CAD techniques.

​

I am a very committed and reliable individual and have loved my experience studying Textile design.
