Swatch card for the gourmand bandana repeat pattern I created for author Idris Grey. Swatch card is a rectangle with the title and Babe&Oak stamp logo on the lower right side. Inside the frame is the pattern large scale. The swatch card is on top of the pattern at a smaller scale. Pattern is in tones of muted deep lavender, dark navy, warm blue and creamy beige taupe. The pattern is a mosaics of tiles in alternating colours with vignettes of abstract botanics and fruit illustrations. Fruit illustrations include a pear, a strawberry, a pair of cherries and a pair of peaches. The botanic abstracts are symmetrical and inspired by tin tile ceilings and florals including daisies. The tiles create a border along and diamond within a secondary light creamy white and pale blue fruit and botanic floral pattern. Together they form a 90s inspired bandana pattern.
