| It started off here...a drawing with "permission markers" |
The Graphic Design ones. I have always been a lover of pattern. All of my doodles revolve around pattern. How they evolve and repeat it has always been my forte per say::)
Sooooo late last week, I got an itch to bring out the sharpies and start some pattern drawing. If I am going to do this textile thing, I need to learn to match the patterns in illustrator. So let the practicing/obsessing begin!
I am kind of liking them. The stripe will be a large scale stripe...like 18-20". Does anyone else feel like the "right" striped fabric is always elusive, whether it is the colors or the scale, I am never quite happy when it comes to stripes. I think I am going to design my own from NOW on!
Starting to feel like this textile design stuff is kind of fun.
Happy Monday!

I always feel like it is hard to find the "right pattern" that you need. Maybe custom design is the way to go!
Hi, Gretchen! Thanks so much for stopping by - it's great to find you and your blog. I am sort of obsessed with textiles and would love to design my own one day so I'm so excited to see what you are doing. All the best, Ally
I had to read further to see what permission markers was all about - ha! You are creative as always!
Gretchen, these are fabulous! I am a sucker for stripes, so love the eyelet stripe!

Love them all! And yes...sometimes I often think I can not find the perfect fabric. Wouldn't it be great to just design it!!! Love what you did, can't wait to see more!
