The whole (slim, but lovely) volume is filled with designs like this and I have only really flicked through so far. I am looking forward to becoming better acquainted with his designs, whether through the book or the material I bought. When I have made something Benedictus-related, I'll post about it.<br />Best wishes<br />Ellie<br /> Ellie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-67126382536544656302013-01-28T12:00:37.687+00:002013-01-28T12:00:37.687+00:00Dear Anne

As his designs are quite 'busy', I think strong colours throughout would be too garish. Somehow, it all works - but, being a designer, he would know what worked, wouldn't he?<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535765080722557710.post-69349347867631176282013-01-27T19:35:05.558+00:002013-01-27T19:35:05.558+00:00Dear Toffeeapple

I loked in my books on Art Deco, Textiles and Patterns and there was one mention, I think, but no pictures.
