This collection is inspired by simple, meaningful moments from my childhood — time spent with my grandmother and mother, spending time together in the garden or heading to the seaside. Each pattern is tied to a specific memory: picking flowers, spotting wild strawberries, or watching the sea.
“Garden Whispers” is floral print features some of my favorite flowers — poppies, peonies, cornflowers, forget-me-nots, cosmos and daisies — all ones I used to pick from my granny’s the garden. The soft stripes in the background add a gentle, vintage feel. It’s a pattern full of comfort and family connection.
“Strawberry Trail” was inspired by walks from my grandmother’s house to the nearby seaside. On that path, I remember finding wild strawberries, and seeing rye and cornflowers growing. I wanted to capture that mix of nature and nostalgia in a traditional-looking floral damask.
“Sea Quilt” is a simple striped checkerboard that was inspired by the seaside — from striped towels to beach mats and the movement of the waves. It has a relaxed, fresh feel that pairs well with the more detailed prints in the collection.
