My 1st Collection



After hours, days & months... I've put together 6 different designs in 3 colorways. I've taken inspiration from all over: photos, brush strokes from paintings, vintage wall paper--and incorporated them into my designs. I researched color on different forecasting sites and picked my colors accordingly. I have used my knowledge of quilting and size and shape to determine my overall design. All my designs are in repeat and index colored. I have just put up 2 of the 6. I would love to hear what you think of them!

    The bottom one is my favorite. I think you really pulled together the right elements to pull it off.

    The top one is fun and whimsical, but the bottom one is my favorite too! I love the bold colors and the way the strong paisley mixes with the flowers. I'd love to see your other designs!

    Oh! I forgot to ask, have you looked at William Morris' designs? His designs are fabulous.

    You are such a talented artist. I love that you follow your heart and sometimes do the tricky thing, like driving back to the city for classes. I hope the show goes well.

    I love the colors and patterns! My favorite is the paisley. It makes me want to go to the beach and soak up the sun. Can't wait until I can buy this pattern!

    Gasp! I love the flower design on top. It has a fun but not too crazy feel. I also love the lower design. I can't wait to make a blanket with the flowers to tote to the parks of NYC!

    These are great! I am super impressed. I especially love the top print because it is one of the few flower prints I've seen that I would definitely use. It's so quirky and fun!

    Cori,

    Jays just told me about your new site - LOVE IT! I also love the paisley and the fact that it is printed so large is one of the reasons I love it. I have fallen in love with Marimekko and purchased several pieces lately - I love BIG, BOLD prints. Congrats on your new adventure, so excited for you!
