Our Story
ABOUT CHERYL
'The Print Pattern Archive has a life of its own, each print has a story of its own, each piece is a tapestry of history. I am fascinated by who carefully designed and often hand painted a design. I have wallpaper books with notes from the French catwalk in the 1800s I am inspired by what inspired the designers at that time in history. I am intrigued and curious as to what makes a design beautiful and what make it timeless. There are elements of design that touch, inspire and please the eye irrespective of time. This inspires my work and drives my creative flair ' Cheryl
