Designing a Floral Fabric - Part 2



I finally picked my new floral fabric screen on Friday so had to quickly print up a couple of colour samples as I was visiting a new design gallery on Sunday, interested in hand-printed fabrics.



I decided to call the new print "Marguerite", French for 'daisy' as the name sounded a little more sophisiticated, don't you think?

I can't show you the whole print yet as I haven't had a chance to register the screens yet to print it as a repeat. That that will demonstrated in 'Floral Fabric -Part 3' so stayed tuned. Marguerite will feature in our upcoming eco-fashion range but will also be available for sale as a fabric for all you clever creative types.

I'm not sure about the colours yet.  I have the classic black on (off) white and the sweeter dusty pink that I am naming "Desert Rose".  Any feedback is greatly appreciated.  The fabric used is a lovely all-purpose hemp/organic cotton.
