After sketching, finding the flowers and greenery that would work together, and testing different compositions, I went with this one as the base for my pattern:

With some magic of moving the blocks and adding more and more flowers to this composition, the dense half drop pattern swatch was made:

I just LOVE seeing these 2 pictures standing next to each other.

And here is how it looks in a repeat:

And when I zoom it out even more:

These are the colors I used during the class, and at that moment I loved them very much...

...but after hours and hours of playing with more color combination, these are now my favorites:

I made the background a bit darker so it can have more depth, and I also changed the color of the main flower to be bolder.

This one is very similar to the previous one, but with more blue tones. And it's inspired by my grandma's dress she always loved to wear.

I’m looking forward to hearing what you think! And I can't wait to see your amazing patterns!

Love,

Di
