"Oriental" patterns...
« on: February 09, 2012, 05:23:04 pm »
My S.O. spent several years in Japan and her place has a definite 'oriental flair' when it comes to art and decorative items.
Thus my decidedly Southwestern/Native American slant to my cuttings just don't really fit in.

If any of you have any leads on 'oriental patterns' I would sure appreciate the information!

Hey GB, Here's one grampa converted for me: http://stevedgood.com/community/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=5351.0;attach=6877;image.
I cut it at 4" x 4" for the Japan relief Quilt, Then I cut a stack of four at full size.

Thank you all for the 'leads'....

I think I have enough now to get through "V" day and beyond.

If you happen on anything else interesting just drop me a PM!

Help from friends is always appreciated!

This is the home site for Roshaan Ganief who authored the pattern book Simply Wood.  Check out her goods and see if you like her designs.
