The circles are too flat- not enough texture to make up for the lack of colour. Too white. Could possibly use this as an experimental fabric but don't want to take this pattern any further. I also don't like the one off designs for use as my backing fabric, however could be good as a complimentary shirt fabric.
I lightened the designs on photoshop to create pastel colours and 'baby neons' as I've been calling them however some of the designs below have come out looking a bit dirty/ dark or dusky. These will be good as small Suffolk puff embellishments or cording etc.
This section of the print is more interesting than the print as a whole because this part has more depth. I've decided to focus more on the embellishments so I won't be taking this print any further but if I did in future I would look at developing this section.
The colours turned out very accurately in this piece which I developed from my initial drawing.
My favourite designs are the ones below. This one is developed from a drawings I did at the Sea-life centre (below) which I then put into repeat on photoshop. I think the layering on this print gives it depth and there is a good level of colour. I also think the polka dot adds to the decorative feel of the piece as well as reflecting the patterning of fish scales.
