Chinoiserie pattern images





So here are some ideas for my chinoiserie inspired textile designs.  Him indoors is currently scanning the bigger and more realistic images of camelias, Australian lily pilly (monkey apples), and citrus to complete the selection.  I think mixing realistic and fantasy images might be interesting.

As these will all be 'cut up' in Photoshop and rearranged, they are not presented s finished 'pictures'.
I'm channeling Manuel Canovas' designs below: isn't this gorgeous??!!  I love the duck egg blue background!

More fabric

We've returned from our annual holidays.
This year was Sri Lanka with a short stopover in Penang, Malaysia.

Here is the haul of gorgeous fabrics: have you ever seen such mad patterns and colour combinations on fabric?
