Woodblock floral

 It's been a while since I joined in on the The Tuesday Collective drawing challenge on Instagram, but last week I was inspired to get involved. The prompt word was 'chrysanthemums' and I decided to create a woodblock-effect repeat pattern which included several types of stylised chrysanthemums as well as other flowers.

I decided to use a bight colour palette of reds and pinks with a touch of turquoise and green. The background became a rich dark teal colour which really shows off the colours nicely. I'm looking forward to adding this print to my Spoonflower shop.

Fabulous floral

 I originally designed this floral in a simple colour palette of blue and white, but I thought it would be interesting to try it in a bright colour palette and I'm really happy with the results! I chose a hot pink and bright orange and added yellow and turquoise. The cream background brings out the colours beautifully. This design was inspired by block printed florals that give it s stylised feel.

This floral print looks great as a cushion cover. It's a great way of adding colour to the home and can be mixed with other cushions in solid colours such as orange or hot pink to add variety to a living space.

This floral print can be bought by-the-metre and made into anything you want. There is a wide selection of fabrics on offer, but I especially love the linen cotton canvas.

The floral print is great for using in the home on tableware such as this table runner. It comes in three different lengths and would be great for decorating a table at a garden party.

Another way of adding colour to the living space is with throw blankets, such as this one. It comes in a velvet fabric but can also be bought in a minky fabric.

Sheet sets are a great way of adding colour to the bedroom and these are fabulous! They are made from a cotton sateen fabric and come with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillow covers.
