Crafted Camellias
A Craft Maximalism Pattern Collection
Crafted Camellias is a surface pattern collection created as my response to Spoonflower’s Craft Maximalism challenge. It blends traditional craft influences with bold, joyful color, resulting in designs that feel both grounded and optimistic.
When I think about craft, I think about symmetry, repetition, and simple motifs, the kind you’d expect from block printing or early textile traditions. When I think about maximalism, I think color, energy, and confidence. This collection lives at the intersection of those ideas.
The camellia motif anchors the collection. Each design plays with balance, rhythm, and saturated palettes while keeping the forms clear and intentional. The result is a body of work that feels graphic, cheerful, and a little bit boho, without losing its handcrafted roots.
Inspired by Craft, Reimagined with Color
Much of this collection is influenced by the structured symmetry and repeat logic found in traditional decorative arts, including the work of William Morris. Instead of muted, historic palettes, Crafted Camellias leans into brighter hues and high contrast combinations, giving these classic ideas a modern, energetic twist.
This approach allows the patterns to feel expressive and playful while still being versatile enough for interiors, apparel, and handmade projects.

Closing Out the Year
This is my final design release of 2026. Crafted Camellias feels like a natural way to close out the year and step into the next one. The collection is colorful, cheerful, and optimistic, qualities I’m intentionally carrying forward into future work.
If you’re drawn to craft inspired patterns with a bold, modern edge, this collection was made for you.
