Sunday sketch #466
This week’s sketch is another design that let me use lots of colours – well, up to six, which is a lot for me 🙂
It’s a block-based design, and each block has three distinct elements: four small circles, four orange peel units, and an outer squircle encompassing everything. So a two-colour palette is possible (though not very interesting), but a palette of three or more colours is best.

When I’m designing quilts, one of the most important aspects of a sketch is how it makes me feel. Not about how easy it might be to make, or who it might appeal to, but how I feel when I look at it: Indifferent? Bored? Surprised? Delighted?. This week’s sketch is the sort of simple, fun design that makes me very happy. The sort of design I’ll stumble onto and think “ha!”. And then I’ll keep going back to it, because it makes me smile 🙂
Sunday sketch #438
This week’s sketch feels a bit like the design equivalent of a ‘novelty’ fabric. (Although after googling that phrase, I’ve discovered that people seem to have different ideas of what that actually means.) To me, it’s a fun design featuring recognisable objects rather than just shapes and colours. In this case, birds!
