I love me some lace. As a textile designer, I always look to incorporate what I love into my patterns so lace was top of mind for some time. Lace is delicate, classy and classic. Yet, it can make a huge visual statement and be modern. In order to recreate all of these aspects of lace, I turned to ... yes, spray-paint! Oh, what a bit of lace remnant can do.
I found lace textures of which I liked and got to work. Spray-painting is one of my favorites; I love the speed of it, the textures one can achieve, the layering effect. As I covered the lace bits in paint, I took photos of the process and then used these photos as pattern elements. I adjusted them on the computer and played around with different colors.

So, here we go with a collection of textiles I called "Vision in Lace." The collection has a green, red, and blue version. While the idea is similar, the fabrics have such different feel to them. The green is vibrant; you will make a statement in this neon hue. The red is almost solid with the most delicate print. The blue has a nice depth between the blue background the almost silver pattern. Colors can do wonders for our spirits.
