As the long, hot summer days slowly give way to the crisp embrace of autumn, I find myself eagerly anticipating the change of seasons. Perhaps it’s the Virgo in me, sensing the impending harvest. For me the harvest season signifies an abundance of inspiration. The air turns cooler, leaves dance from the trees, flowers gracefully transition to seed and my creative muse wakes from her summer slumber.
On the cusp of autumn, I found myself crafting the drawings for 'The Ghostly Garden' collection. The season’s inspiration seemed to start early! I used Procreate, leveraging its mirror option to help me envision the final patterns. Afterward, I refined the designs in Adobe Illustrator. I feel that this collection beautifully blends elegance with an eerie charm. The hero pattern for this collection is a moonlit garden adorned with skull and ghost flowers touched by the chill of late autumn all centered around the mysterious presence of the Death’s Head Hawk Moth. Coordinating patterns feature shining full and crescent moons, petite flowers in ditsy arrangements and textured plaids.
These designs bring a touch of witchy vibes and a hint of mystery, making them perfect for infusing the magic of chilly autumn air into home decor and sewing projects.
Whether you're seeking fabrics to transform your living space or envisioning unique sewing projects, 'The Ghostly Garden' collection is available in my Spoonflower shop.
I’d love to know what you think of this autumn inspired collection!
