Developing surface designs.


Jane has been designing more patterns using Illustrator and using a template to set them up.As you can see from the following images a red triangle marks an area then apparently this can be mirrored, rotated in  six ways to create the block.

Here are some examples.



Another source for inspiration have been Fair Isle knitting designs


and 'Bugs' from Elizabethan embroidery in various colour ways.



Pink Pig ,the producers of lovely papers and sketchbooks ,have a competition for a cover.Jane has sent off an entry .........how will they resist?


Her stitching this month has been to create this badge based on a face.
She is currently contemplating having more of her fabrics printed ,the firm Fashion Formula were mentioned.
