Creative Space: the BOLD print

I like it how sometimes a beautiful karma operates in the world... that's how it feels at the 
moment anyway. I've created a bold print that I'm so happy with, and it all came about from 
sharing creative knowledge with friends.

 When I was in the UK last month, I visited Lu Summers' studio and shared with her and 
Keri how to create a continuous pattern block for block printing. In showing them, I carved
this design and it's now become my favourite pattern :) I've sold it as a fat quarter, made up
pouches in it, and now I've made myself a top from it... It feels good :)





I'm getting in early for My Creative Space this week. If you'd like to see more spaces you 
can visit Kirsty on Village Voices here.

    It's wonderful, and it translates so beautifully from one application to the next. Well done!

    Your print is perfect for this simple top. Or the top is perfect for the print? Either way, I'm so glad you stuck with calling it 'oasis'.
