Aff539 Pattern

This design was made from the very outset to be a fashion fabric rather than a design for soft furnishings although, I do agree, that it would also make excellent material for curtains.

The motif is inspired by the patterns used in the United Kingdom in the 1970s and the colouring is also very similar to the colours used at that time although this does not give the pattern a dated or period look.

This pattern is, of course, a design that adheres to my Belle Epoque 2 ideas since it has a relatively small-scale as well as a fast repeat. I need to experiment to see whether, as a fashion fabric, it would look better at a smaller scale although, at the scale shown, it does lend itself well to soft furnishing.

If you wish, you can also see larger versions of this and, of course, my other designs and patterns for interiors on my Flickr page, a link to which is here.
