angular, checked design with abstract leaves.
The leaves look as though the insects found them quite tasty! Wonky Fringed Polka Blobs are fun for an upbeat country style of home decor, and for sporty, casual clothing. They would also add a touch of humor in a contemporary setting. As the original design was a set of checks, the design can also be interpreted as distorted checks, and used as a checked design. The word check, per this article on Wikipedia, originated from the Persian word "shah," meaning "king." The word entered the French language as "echec" in the 11th century, and from there passed into English. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_(pattern) - This commonly used pattern, you see, came from the oriental game of chess, which was played on a squared board. Checked fabric can be used effectively in a manner similar to gingham. It is, of course, always a great choice for shirts and blouses. If you are wanting to create a country look in your home décor, checks can be used for curtains, pillows, place mats, dinner napkins, or a tablecloth. Combine them with a coordinating solid for bedding linens. The sky’s the limit, really. For fun quilting options, combine a checked fabric with a floral and a stripe or a solid. Fun, fun, fun!
