Cotton & Silk

Whether you need a professional scarf for work, to create a polished 'back to the office' look, or a more relaxed 'work from home' style, the colors and patterns of French Roses achieve this with ease.
The French Roses surface pattern design is my 'ode to Warhol', starting with the sumptuous Mackintosh rose and conveying its depths and curves. The design results from an integration of my photograph and my drawings. Inspired by a luscious rose I received from my husband, I wandered the outline of its curves adding my pen marks as my being was touched within by each petal’s unfolding.

“Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself.”
The Camellia Cream Oversized Square Scarf is perfect for summer. It can be worn as a dress or sarong-style skirt, as well as draped as a shawl perfect for evening strolls along the beach or lazy picnics in the countryside.
Inspired by photographs of the rose-pink camellia bush growing against the side of my mother’s patio wall. I have always loved this bush. The surface design and its sister design, Winter Rose, is an abstraction of the pattern of its petals across several blooms. A central heart emerged without forethought; an accident of playing with the patterns.

The inspiration for the Berica Breeze surface pattern design was a visit to the 'father of Bauhaus" Gropius’ home outside Boston, Massachusetts. There I found an exquisite table display, a vase filled with seeded branches from a Sakura tree. The rhythm offers a fusion of the soft Japanese Cherry Blossoms with the modern formations of Bauhaus design.

The surface design was created by abstracting and playfully lifting patterns from photographs of an orchid leaf taken at close range. By looking closely, and selecting portions of the shapes within the leaves many patterns and abstract whimsical shapes emerge. The abstract shapes within the field of the design come from within nature’s symmetry.

An ode to the town of Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital city.

The blues and greens are inspired by the native flowers and the weather.
