Sweet peas or morning glory twining round a mug; a gaggle of Emma's design inspirations come from everyday life. We are all making our mark as we choose the options - this dress, or that pair of shoes, what to cook, which dish to serve your food on - it's all designing and we always write in our own particular style. Ranging about through diverse memories - from the children's bookshelf filled with Maurice Sendak, Beatrix Potter and Ladybird books, to family holidays on the North Norfolk coast or in the Scottish Isles; from cosy Paisley eiderdowns to Mary Quant patent white boots and citrus mini-dresses, to rummaging through antique shops and market stalls for bright crocheted patchwork blankets, groovy 1960s coffee pots and idiosyncratic Victorian spongeware - Emma shares the process of design that brings pattern onto your kitchen table.
