I have been busy updating my Etsy and Folksy shops this weekend. There is some lovely new products available. You can also follow me on my facebook page here.

Rachel Cave is a London based freelance pattern designer who regular sells her work for a range of surfaces such as homeware’s, textiles, fashion fabrics and printed paper products.

She has completed a number of briefs for companies such as JosephJoseph, Typhoon, Generation Baby and Jenny Duff. I love the simplicity of Rachel’s designs, her use of colour is what initially attracted me to her work. Below are a series of prints that Rachel showed at Printsource in April, you can see further examples of her work on her website here.

Todays trend is hand drawn type or fonts. It seems to be everywhere at the moment, I first spotted it with Jamie Oliver’s packaging and notebook designs which I loved and soon after I became obsessed with it after seeing all the fab work Lucy Player has done. You can check out her work here. Enjoy your wednesday evening guys.

So I have decided to give my blog some organisation and have special features on certain days.

Monday: Print design inspiration, whatever is catching my eye that particular week from the wonderful world of surface pattern design.

Wednesday: Trend information whether that be colours, patterns, accessories, fashion, interiors.

Friday: My personal exploration of the world of paper and book art. This will help me with my new book art and book binding course that I started last night.

Hopefully this will help me focus more with my blog. I will also add in any new designs and prints that I think you may want to see. I Hope everyone has a great weekend , I have a craft fair in my home county of Nottinghamshire this weekend so I will upload some pictures of my stand on monday.

I have a new stockist, North Rock Gallery on the Shetland Isles will now be stocking my notebooks. You can check out the website here and here.All three designs are available from the shop, and I am currently working on new designs for my website so keep them peeled.
