Pattern Cassettes

Three scans of the pattern cassette's I posted a while ago. The first tape was tweaked in photoshop, but only by changing the saturation. Really love how these look scanned.

Pattern Attempt 2

Another pattern from the same sketchbook - same deal as the last post. The colors didn't translate well in this scan but I actually don't mind how it came out - the original is surrounded by a blue border.

Pattern Attempt 1

Got this awesome little grid notebook and have been playing around with making patterns. This is one panel repeated four times width wise and twice height wise - not lined up perfectly but was just playing to see how it would look as a fuller pattern. Don't really like the colors.

Pattern Tape Book

A few images from a current project
After drawing a cassette tape template, the cassette is traced and then pattern and color are added
Planning on keeping this as an on-going project, would like to have at least 100 leafs before binding - book may be left unbound and kept in a box, undecided.
This project is an attempt to explore my interest in patterns, and to try and stretch my creativity for creating patterns and colorways.


Aubrey, brilliant stitchmaster behind Spool Spectrum is a total inspiration for this project - he is the master of many things, including patterns and mixtapes - often mixing them, resulting in great music with amazing labels. I will scan one and update this post, soon.
