Chocolate Sprinkle

 

 

An unbordered field runs edge to edge with a continuous repeat of angular, faceted triangles and arrow-like shapes, arranged in vertical columns that create a flickering, folded-paper rhythm across the surface. The palette moves between deep charcoal-brown and ivory, with soft tan and beige accents breaking up the darker shapes. Each column reads as a stack of pointed forms tilting in alternating directions, giving the overall design a strong sense of movement without any framing border.

Football Savonnerie

A warm brown field carries a repeating pattern of large scrolling spirals rendered in a twisted, rope-like beige line, each coil punctuated with small black diamonds, circles, and squares along with elongated cream lozenges. The design is enclosed by a narrow serrated dark border and an outer checkerboard band alternating cream and tan squares, framed at the very edge by a solid black line.

Heather

A plum-brown ground is scattered edge to edge with small floral bouquets set in loose diagonal rows, each cluster combining pink and cream roses, pale blue blossoms, and yellow-green sprigs of foliage. The field runs borderless to the outer edge, with no framing device separating the pattern from the perimeter. The repeat is irregular enough that individual bouquets vary slightly in composition and color emphasis, avoiding a strict mirrored symmetry.

Birds of Paradise

An ivory ground field is overlaid with a fine trellis of thin diagonal lattice lines in brown and ochre, their intersections dotted with small flecks of red, blue, and gold. The wide surrounding border, also on a cream ground, is populated with a procession of individually rendered birds—perched, standing, and in profile—rendered in muted olive, brown, black, and touches of turquoise, interspersed at the corners with small floral sprays. A thin dark outline frames the trellis field, setting it off cleanly from the pictorial border.

Fall

Flat Weave Technique

A soft rose and amber ground carries a central lozenge medallion formed of overlapping acanthus leaves and a small cruciform blossom at its heart. Surrounding this, garlands of feathery foliage and rosettes loop outward in mirrored symmetry, framed by a wide border of dense floral scrollwork in cream, coral, and sage tones. The palette shifts gently across the field between warm brown and dusty pink grounds, giving the surface a faded, tapestry-like softness.

Ring of Roses

A pale straw ground carries a lattice of ochre medallions bound by ribboned bows in rust and cream, each cartouche filled with scrolling foliage and a small rosette at its center. The border alternates elongated floral cartouches of pink and green sprays against cream with narrow bands of scrolling vine on a taupe ground, framed by plain outer stripes. The overall palette stays soft throughout - gold, taupe, rose, and sage - with the field's medallions arranged in a regular diagonal grid.

Trellis Bessarabian

The field is organized as a diagonal trellis of ribbed latticework in tan and ivory, each diamond compartment filled with a cluster of acanthus-like leaves in olive and gold tones set against a pale celadon ground. A scalloped inner guard of overlapping shell forms in soft blue-green and cream separates the field from the outer border, which carries a dark chocolate band scrolled with fine ivory vinework and edged in coral-pink meander.
