Textile artist Maxine Bristow describes how she gets her inspiration from repeated pattern in everyday objects, and how she has to plan and get organised before embarking on a piece. She created 1,475 button holes for one piece and explains she had to make 88 buttonholes a day to meet her deadline. She talks about how she treats the fabric with gesso, a PVA and chalk powder mix, to create a older, more lived in feeling.
