Let’s play a game.

What does this fabric bring to mind for you?

I played this game the other day while writing the post about my daughter’s custom embellished bicycle.  Yes! this fabric makes me think of her bike (or her bike makes me think of this fabric.  Anyway, I’m digressing).  I felt like I could go on and on about what I see in this beautiful fabric by Kaffe Fasette.

Below are some thumbnail pics of some of the things that this fabric brings to mind for me.

In order of appearance:

Another detail of a fabric by Kaffe Fasette that I assume was also inspired somehow by Klimt,  bindis from India (jeweled accessories  for girls to stick on their faces), a detail from Klimt’s painting The Serpent, another bindi, a gypsy caravan(in needle point no less!), another bindi, A gypsy cushion, the jeweled view through a keilidoscope, mandala, MANDALA, another detail from The Sea Serpent by Gustav Klimt, a silk scarf, a panting by Toller Cranston( I wish I could have found one of the illustrations from his visual version of The Nutcracker to show you), another mandala, and back to Kaffe Fassette again, and again.

You life is your most powerful art.  See you at the boutique.
