This one is making me dizzy
I saw some Gee’s Bend quilts online tonight and immediately wanted to do random squares for tonight’s fabric design. No pattern in mind, just drawing squares and fitting them together like improvisational quilts. I had also wanted to create a fabric that can be colored in (since the printing will be one color). I could also imagine the squares being filled with fabric applique.
I added the dots for a little interest but I still find this design busy, dizzy and messy. Maybe it will grow on me.

I love this, I don’t find it dizzying. It’s true there’s not as much white space as on your other ones, but the empty boxes balance that out. I think this would look great as table linens or giftwrap.
I love the quilts of gee’s bend - amazing.
I love this pattern you’ve drawn; I think it would look great as a textile print as well
