Pattern

I LOVE patterns.  Not beadwork patterns per se.  Just patterns.  Like fern leaves, fractals, repeating designs in fabric, rhythm.  Any beat, any color, any style–just patterns.  Some patterns can be annoying, especially high contrast patterns that create optical illusions.  Some seem to pulse.

How do you feel about patterns?  Are they annoying?  Calming?  Tell me your experiences.

I have done beadwork for over 25 years and got so interested in jewelry design that I took two metalwork classes at Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts in Gatlinburg, Tennessee from wonderful teachers Deborah Lynn Gold and Marjorie Simon. I can't choose a favorite medium. I love sculptural work and adore forming and fabricating metals, but three-dimensional beadwork is more colorful. I sew a lot! Lately I've been making lots of purses and wallets as well as upcycling used clothing into new items. Lately I've gone back to sewing and refashioning cast-off clothing–mostly men's shirts, into girls' clothing. I also enjoy making handbags and wallets. They are really fun to put together–like a puzzle.
