Orange eat Purple Textile Pattern
This textile came to me in a dream. For the longest time I’ve been fighting a battle within me. I had a hard time focusing on doing one thing in the fashion industry. I loved everything about it, but there are a multitude of jobs you can do in fashion. I finally said to myself “find something to focus on that will allow you to be in fashion, but utilize your creativity in design”. Then for a week straight I started to dream of fabrics and textile design. The purple version above was a part of a dream I had where a woman was showing me different fabrics. I took these series of dreams as the answer to my questions about what area I would do the best in….Textile Design. I love to create, but designing clothing wasn’t my strongest suit. I don’t care much for the construction of clothing, but I’ve always had a passion for fabric. I remember going to the fabric store with my mother as a child and getting lost in the different textures, colors, detailing etc. I knew I wanted to work in the fashion industry, but I found that I was good at more that one thing in it. What I’ve found with textile design is that ANYTHING GOES! No rules on what kind of designs should go on fabric, and the versatility in use is limitless. Anyway, I don’t want to write a long post, but trust me, more textiles to come. And I will go into more detail in another post or video. Thanks for reading.
