This year i am determined to get the hang of the secret of a successful repeat pattern. I've been delaying this a little, a tiny bit daunted by the whole prospect, but here we go, with the first pattern. Any sensible person would ideally start with a simple design, but i do like to make life a little difficult for myself, and attempted a pattern using components of flowers and birds. Maybe i'll keep things a little simpler next time, (with the great gift of hindsight!) and theres a little more work needed to get the pattern to fit together properly, but it's definitely a start!
Oooo yes! that's coming along fabulously!
ReplyDeleteI love a good technical challenge... I bet you're having fun with that!

This looks amazing, a very luxurious pattern, I can just picture the huge floor length curtains...
ReplyDeleteThe repeat pattern is absolutely stunning! Even though you've included lots of beautiful detail, it doesn't look too cluttered. I would love to see it on a bolt of fabric!
ReplyDeleteWow! Love this one as well as the pen and ink drawing. You are so talented and my heart and my eyes just have to smile each time I look at your work.
ReplyDeleteThank you :) It's been wonderful to use ink again, but i don't think it will be long until i get urge to print again. x
ReplyDeleteLovely repeat patterns with subtle colours; a lot of brain work involved!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you.... wonderful work!
