The motif is editable. Each color is on a different layer so that any color modification can be made independently. It makes the design process much longer, but it is worth it 🙂

… and Fabric sample pack from Spoonflwer
Sorry for the poor quality of the photos. I had them on my phone, and I forgot to mention it.
Last summer, I ordered different kinds of fabrics from my own Spoonflower shop. I wanted to check the quality of the print as well as the size of the large-format of my patterns design. In my Spoonflower shop, I usually upload three sizes for each design: Small, Medium, and Large (for wallpaper). It was difficult to get an idea of the proportion of the large design and the texture of the fabric.
Spoonflower allows us to select multiple designs we want to print and With the option “fill a yard” option, we can choose the fabric and organise the patterns as a patchwork. It can be for a quilt or any project but it’s also a great way to test various of our designs at once on one or two textile surfaces.
I was so pleased with the result! The prints are sharp, neat, and vibrant. I’ve tried other printing places and processes before, but none were as beautiful as those ones.
One of the fabric is really thick, a kind of Jute fabric, great strong home furnishing fabric… ideal for restoring and renovating upholstered furniture. It’s really nice . A total professional result !
I will post better quality photos soon …














Handy sample pack
I ordered a fabric sample box from #spoonflower. It helps to picture what could be done with the #patterndesign displayed in my spoonflower boutique.
I was truly impressed by the pack. It goes from silky veil to thick beautiful furnishing fabric. I was so pleased by the range and the quality of those samples.

In September I intended to join a spoonflower contest* but due to unforeseen events that occurred – LIFE 🙂 ! – I could not manage to finish on time for the closing date. However I took a liking to this project and kept looking for more ideas, I made an extended project out of it. From the paper sketchbook to the procreate tracing from which I built the pattern unit and then applied different colors palette – layer by layer – so that the pattern is an editable one: each color can be changed independently from one another
Originally, this motif was made* for kitchen. As a matter of fact, it fits on fabric too (which was a kind of surprise)…

I kind of had an oriental atmosphere in mind. it is more visible at the tracing stage : here

Cone-shaped flowers blooms that narrow evenly from the bottom to the apex of the flower to form a cone-shaped appearance .Many perennials develop cone-shaped blossoms during the spring and summer months. Typically, these flowers die out in the winter months and then come back to life in spring.

Before starting any new pattern design, I like to explore my flowers and leaves mood. I am going for simplified realistic shapes or making my own imaginary mix? here used ny graphic exploration of Morning Glory lines. (in portfolio)

LES JARDINS DU GUÉ , ce site est une mine d’informations pour moi, à l’endroit où je me trouve ( phase de creation d’une collection de patterns)… au moment ou je me demande: quelles fleurs, – quel agencement – quel stylisation – quelle simplification, – quel niveau de details…. la forme des feuilles et des feuilles étant le premier dilemma.
Grace à ces informations je me confectionne une petite “feuillothèques” de lignes de feuille à décliner…Your Attractive Heading
Je les pose là, (blog pense bête)
A l’occasion je me préparerai une série de templates de chacune de ces formes … desmodèle et je ferai aussi des ” brushes stamp” pour ipad. J adore utiliser des brush tampon pour positionner les elements graphics à répéter.
Quelle automatisation de process 😉

WHY DO WE LOVE HONEY SUCKLE?
A GRAPHIC TREASURE
Honeysuckle is a fascinating subject for graphic design and art in general, providing endless possibilities for creating visually engaging and meaningful works.
Honeysuckle plants are climbers and often have long, entwining vines that create complex and dynamic shapes. These twisting and turning vines can form intricate patterns that are visually captivating.The way the vines wrap around structures or other plants can create interesting visual compositions and a sense of movement.
The leaves of honeysuckle are typically arranged in opposite pairs along the stems. This regular pattern can create a pleasing and harmonious visual rhythm.The leaves themselves are often simple and oval-shaped, providing a contrasting backdrop to the more complex flowers and vines.
A force parcourir les livres de patterns tels que : William Morris , artist craftsman Pioneer , j avais plein de chèvrefeuilles parmi mes images mentales. Il fallait que ça sorte en motif. Voila!
Aucun intérêt à le faire mais c’ est un excellent bouquin, un bon équilibre entre contexte géographico-historique et collections des patterns des plus illustres aux moins familiers. On se rend aussi compte que dans la firme Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co, la company est importante à découvrir … J’en parlerai un de ces jours…
Le genre de bouquin vers lequel on revient très souvent: un livre de table de salon ou de table de chevet. II passe peu de temps sur des étagères
