Graphical Inspiration

I can’t resist a good craft or design book. I have a few that feed my graphic addiction. My favorites are Pattern Palette 2 Sourcebook by Heidi Arrizabalaga, Printing By Hand by Lena Corwin and Pattern by Tricia Guild. Take a peak at what each one has to offer.

Tricia Cuild Pattern

Of  all my books, this is my ultimate favorite. Even the cover is a tactile experience with its velveteen floral design. The patterns integrated into vignettes and room decor are breathtaking. I could spend hours getting lost in her designs.
