Curtains


This is a pattern, which is still in progress. I am a bit of a crammer when it comes to designing patterns so I try to pare back when possible, but sometimes I like a bit of a messy design. My sister once had these beautiful old curtains with French style gates and flowers. I had this in mind when scribbling and this is what came out. This design will no doubt change, but I like this so far. The house and gates were first designed for a collage, which I'm yet to complete.

This pattern is lovely, very french. I recently wrote about Miroslav Sasek on my blog, I love "This is Paris" and would you believe I just bought "I can fly" for my daughter!

Wow, I just noticed you like Jacques Tati as well. Mon Oncle is one of my favorite films. I remember first watching it when I was young and thinking the house was wonderful with it's "eye" windows.
