amid the chaos a pattern is born!

Whew! Slowly slowly slowly this new pattern set has been in the works in spite of the insanity all around. I am so excited about this one! It's something really different from my other patterns. Instead of a single image to stitch these patterns are seamless designs similar to a design on fabric. So, you can transfer the design, line it up again along the edges and transfer again and you will get a seamless surface design that is as large - or as small as you want. Does that make sense? I swear the most daunting part of this project has been trying to explain it - not my strong suit.

These designs were inspired by Indian motifs found in mehndi patterns and the gorgeous fabrics used to make saris. Oh I saw so many stunning patterns along the way and I wanted to pack my bags for Mumbai! Instead I packed boxes for....oh I'm not telling yet *wink*

So, I suppose it's time to get back to painting the bathroom and scrubbing scrubbing scrubbing the floors! This project was a delightful escape for me over the last month or so and I have a feeling another diversion will find it's way in soon too. My flossbox will be the very last thing I pack away!
