Fogo Island braided rug project part I (the patterns)






This is the original Fogo Island wall paper that Kym Greeley and I based our screen printed fabric designs on.

Thank you

  1. So poetic work. Great patterns. Lovely colors.
    You should work further on with them and make bedlines or something like that ;)
    Certain style Kym has on her paintings - I like them a lot.
    Interesting to see your coorporation on this work.

  2. Yes, the old wall paper is beautiful; Kym went through some of the old Fogo Island houses and got permission to sample the patterns and then carefully steamed (I think..) them all apart. Am planning to do lots of drawings based on these and would love to design and screen print more fabric with her.
