Christmas Patterns

I've been lucky enough in the last couple of weeks to have graphic design jobs, even if they're other than creating surface art. I'm not waiting tables, so I count my blessings.

I don't have anything new that I can post, but this timeless Holiday collection is just right this week before Christmas to put me in the mood.

Quilt Fabric Collections

I'm working on quilt fabric collections this week. It's fun, but not as easy as it might look.

I find it very helpful to apply the patterns to quilt blocks to check the balance of scale. I also check for  a balance of lights, mediums and darks, which turns out to be a hardest part for me.

This group is really pretty though. I'd put a quilt on my bed made of these designs!
