Autumn Inspired Textiles

I hope that everyone is faring well on this first day of the end of daylight savings time. I suppose some of you took advantage of the extra hour to sleep in today. As for me, my day today was off to an early start. It’s usually my turn to walk the dog on the weekends and Hudson’s internal clock has not quite reset itself yet, so by 5 am she was already whining to be let out. But it’s nice having that little bit of daylight around that time now.

I also discovered that I can actually get a lot more done in the early mornings when Breezy is still asleep, and after the dog gets her breakfast she usually jumps back into bed, so I decided to take advantage of this quiet time to work on some textile designs. This was a LOT of fun. I can easily get sucked into this all day. Below is the first installment of tileable swatches that I was able to create from about 7 to 10 am. Then everyone started waking up.

What do you think? I hope you like them. Stay tuned for more designs!
