#2 an intricately drawn pattern

here's the original sketch which i had to redo completely using the croquis method to make it repeat. they are oyster mushrooms.



here's what it looked like after i re-did it completely, scanned it in, and then repeated it several times



and here's a selection of the final finished colored thing



#3: collaged pattern

a polka dot:



weird stripe (this was my first idea and attempt before moving onto the polka dot)




#4: final final final project

so, i really loved layering those family photos i used and showed in a post below this one. i decided to create a few more of these patterns (trying out different colorways). my final plan for the finished fabric is to use them for the lining of personal items i use daily: tote bag, make up bag, possibly a garment. it's similar to the idea i had for my "failed" final project---keeping these treasured photos close to my body and available to look at whenever--but still somewhat private. each file is 40"x 36" so the sizes of the images vary...ideally i think i would scale some of them down depending on what they were going to be used for.
