The New Design Museum
I enjoyed my first visit to the newly relocated Design Museum in London. My partner and I only had time to see the permanent exhibition which explains the important milestones in the history of design spanning the last few hundred years. Lots of interesting exhibits and videos to bring the history to life. #design #history #designer #london #design #designmuseum #london #history

Rat Wrap
Before you turn away in horror, a rat wrap is not a lunchtime snack, it's wrapping paper printed with my unique hand-drawn paisley rat pattern. Today a customer has ordered a roll of satin gift wrap with the rat print. This is the first ever order of any of my designs as gift wrap. All of the designs available in my Paisley Power Spoonflower shop can be ordered as fabrics, wallpaper or gift wrap. We all appreciate a carefully wrapped present, especially with thoughtfully chos

Popular Print Colours
Black and white is by far the most popular colour combo for my rat design. I received orders for 3 cushions yesterday so today i was back in the print room screenprinting the fabric. It's very enjoyable when the printing is successful. Tomorrow i will collect the prints, iron them to fix the inks and then sew them and send them out. Someone in Bristol ordered two! good taste. #screenprint #design #fabric #handmade #rat

Free Art Friday
I'm glad my print "Butterfly Collector" went to a happy passer-by seen in the photo. Good vibes all round at yesterday's Free Art Friday event organised locally by Estuary Fringe. Artists & designers donated art and it was handed out free on the street to anyone who liked it. It was also pinned up in unusual places so that people could take it home if they saw it and liked it. Thanks to John Bulley (Southend artist) for taking this pic. The Free Art Friday events started in U

Stripes of Saturn by Patrick Moriarty - Competition Entry
Submitted in March 2014 this design was my second entry to design a print for leggings for the Front Row Society, a fashion brand based in Berlin, Germany. I used a photograph from a trip to Ghana, Africa in 2013. I sliced the photo into thin strips and shifted them to give an interesting effect and unexpected colour changes. I love to experiment when I am creating my designs. Inventing new techniques and discovering skills online from other designers helps to keep my designs
