Welcome to Let’s Fly – A surface pattern design blog hop!
Hello there! Welcome to stop #38 of this amazing blog hop… Nice to see that you have made it this far! You probably have arrived here through Eli Risty’s blog, Risty Design. She’s a surface pattern designer living in Donosti (Basque Country).
If you just found the blog hop at this point and want to see all the entries, then you can head to Gill Eggleston’s blog, Pattern Addict, where the blog hop starts.
50+ designers are celebrating the start of a new year by creating this colossal surface pattern design blog hop. Each of us created a mini collection of prints based on a ‘Let’s Fly’ theme and using Pantone’s colour of the year, Emerald, so we have more than 150 gorgeous designs for you to feast your eyes on! The blog hop has been organised and curated by the lovely Rosie Martinez-Dekker from Believe Creative Studio. Thanks Rosie!
For my designs I decided to use a little creature that gets little attention and appreciation… So, may I introduce my little friends, the flies!
I hope you enjoyed my designs! You can now visit the next designer, Jacqueline van Roosmalen in the Netherlands, at her blog Colourbook Studio, where you will find some lovely little creatures waiting for you…
Thanks a lot for visiting my blog and enjoy the rest of your blog hop journey!
Have you liked the designs shared in the blog hop so far? Are you feeling inspired? Please leave any comments you may have. I would love to hear from you!
Turning flys into flowers. Now that is inspiring, i love them. X
gosh those colours become almost neon in that combination. very striking.
really cool use of colour against grey – I love it! Lots of success for you in 2013 I hope!
Oh, the flies are wonderful! My favorite is the one on top! And the fly-flowers too…
LOVE your flies!!! Brilliant!!! The patterns you’ve created with them are fab!! I started out with bees but somehow ended up with aviation!
congrats on giving the fly a good show! that’s talent :)
I would never thought of designing with a fly! Great idea and it’s nice to see a little of the process! Nice to meet you Veronica! -Dariela
Such a fun collection. Love it!
How cool is that, reminds me of synchronized swimmers. Very creative and beautiful!
Your collection had me smiling from first glance! Very creative and clever! Good luck in 2013!
You’ve turned something I hate into something I love! I would love a shirt dress in your top design :)
love it! who would have thought flies could be pretty! very good idea … bravo
Veronica- flies! Perfect. What an interesting color combo that worked so well for you. Very creative. Best of luck to you! Julie
I loved the literal and clever take on the subject. I am still laughing. The patterns are great and funny. The colours are obviously great too, because, as someone else from the Indigo group said, you’re a colour queen. And I found the sketches very interesting too. Congrats, dear.
Veronica… me mataste con tus moscas!!! Que chistosa eres! Están divinas! Las ultimas hasta parecen bailando ballet, hahahhaha. Lograste transformar un insecto tan desagradable en algo lindo, llamativo y divertido. Super!!!
What a great idea for a pattern! and like Leska mentioned, it kind of reminds me of synchronized swimmers a bit. FUN and creatives ideas, Vero!!
totally original! Love the flies… fun and very clever
