The original motif put into a Planar Design with creates a wonderful all over design.

 

For The Textile Museum of Canada’s Shadow Box Show in 2006, the original Freda’s Flowers was sewn as a simple C4 design with one colour change.

The original design was an adaptation of concepts in the embroideries of Oaxaca.

The C4 design created this planar repeat.

An early sewn sample that was originally discarded creates a very different planar repeat
