Egyptian repeated patterns

To create your design you can draw or collage the pattern.

Collage:

Use coloured paper to fold into a concertina (backwards and forwards), draw an

image and cut.

Open out and arrange on backing paper.

Fold paper, draw a single image – cut and arrange on paper.

Glue everything in place once you’re happy with how the pattern repeats.

Please send a photo to me via seesaw.

Thank you.

Mrs Coulston

I hope you feel relaxed and peaceful whilst making your artwork.
