I put together a few images from the museum at Royal William Yard of all the knots and different fastenings that were used to secure the ships, ropes etc. some of the fastenings are quite large but in a smaller scale could be transformed into garment fastenings or design features adding a little something extra to a collection, unusual fastenings always interest me, so taking inspiration from these and maybe trying to use or incorporate them into my theme or my own collection is definitely something i will be looking into.
