QUATREFOIL





Hail the Quatrefoil!!  This versatile four leafed lobe is popping up everywhere! It first caught my eye in an interior design mag summer 2008, and seems to be making a splash on everything from business card cases to this fabulous ironwork gate.  I'm touting this Byzantine inspired symbol as the replacement to the flourish damask prints that worked tirelessly through 2007-8.  I love the more structured, lattice shape, which looks great as an all-over print or on it's own.  It can be quirky, ethnic or highbrow....both contemporary and classic.  I've already used it on both baby and wedding....will show you snaps soon!
