I wanted to celebrate my mining heritage<br />

by contrasting the harsh background of the<br />

miners' lives with their positive spirit. I did<br />

this by creating embellished "coal seams"<br />

sewn onto a donkey jacket and hard hat.<br />

These were further decorated with beads,<br />

cogs and chain which were appropriate to<br />

the subject. I also incorporated the crafts<br />

used in the community by attaching woven<br />

fabric, knitting and crochet to the collar as<br />

well as rag-rugging to one shoulder<br />
