Fabric Patterns
From Publication Station
a project by Marleen van Griethuysen
Inspiration
Inspired by the Pattern Design elective, I decided to use one of the patterns to make a tote bag. In the elective, we had to create patterns with a nature theme. My pattern was inspired by forms of mushrooms.
Design Decisions
First, I looked for a way to screen print on a big piece of fabric (1,5x3m).
When I realised that making the pattern seamless on a big piece of fabric would have been very hard, I decided to first cut the fabric in the pattern for the bags.
I decided the size of my bag will be 40x45cm, then made a simple sewing pattern for the bags.
