With Bärbel Dressler

Hello there, and welcome to join me in a fun, educational pattern design challenge, where I will guide you through my 8 steps for creating a floral pattern, with a structure of trailing branches without visible beginnings or ends.

You will also learn how to "dress up" your trailing floral pattern inspired by 3 historical styles:

• Indian Floral
• Chinoiserie
• Arts and Crafts

At the end of the challenge you will have an advanced, sophisticated design - to include in your portfolio, upload to your POD-shops or for printing your own wallpaper, fabric and other products.

The challenge is free! But you need to register below to participate.

🌟 PRIZES TO WIN! 🌟

From all challenge participants I will randomly pick 3 winners who will each get a seat to the Repertoire course!

The Repertoire course is a 12-week online training program where you learn to create a wide range of pattern styles and composition types, taught in 10 modules that build in complexity - from simple to advanced patterns. Repertoire is available once a year. Enrollments to Repertoire open August 20th and the course starts on August 30th.

LET'S KICK "THE GAP" TO THE CURB!

I know how frustrating it is to have an idea for a pattern, or a favorite pattern style - to want to create a complex pattern - but not knowing how to transfer your vision onto paper and screen.

With this FREE challenge I want to show you my method for creating a complex pattern with continual motifs in 8 easy to follow steps, and share a bit of pattern history along the way of course...

Let's just have some fun together, and take a new step towards mastering the craft of surface pattern design!
