Inspiration from zoomed in sources
We will do a very simple embroidery on a plain pocket square or bandana this year. But I want the motifs to be simple yet different.
I could search embroidery patterns and maybe I will do that. I design fabric. One of my favourite cultures that inspire me is Japan. I first travelled in rural Japan for 3 weeks in my 30s. So I spent some time looking at Japanese wrapping papers. Then I zoomed in to the motifs that made up the patterns. Then I pulled them out and made them my own.
But instead of drawing them on my computer I pulled out my paint set (the internet is terrible here anyway). This is what I did yesterday.
I want you to look around you now and look at something zoomed in. What have you noticed about it that you haven’t seen before.
