This design is a traditional Japanese motif called 'Bishamon Kikko' ("Turtle shell"). The repeat is 5.38 x 5.19 inches on fabric and wall decals and 6 x 5.79 inches on wallpaper. I recommend ordering this design printed on Organic Cotton Sateen or Cotton Poplin since the colors will print best on those two fabric types. In case you would like to order this design in different colors or at a different scale (larger / smaller), please don't hesitate to send me a message! Please also have a look at my other Japanese pattern inspired designs (http://www.spoonflower.com/collections/28577) :-) If you were always wondering how different colors print on the various fabrics that Spoonflower offers, please do have a look at my website where I have quite a few comprehensive photos of color swatches printed on various fabrics!
