Extended Practice Prep: I want to make some patterns

Last year I got really into pattern and over summer I have enjoyed making patterns as well. I would like to do a project that focuses around patterns so I thought that it would be a good idea to enter Feathr again. I submitted two designs last year, but thats when I had just started making patterns and I would like to push myself in this field and learn more about successful pattern making - try out different techniques etc. I have only made patterns digitally and I'm wondering about traditional pattern making methods I could explore. I feel like this project should be based around something so I'm not just generating random patterns, but I'm not sure what. It's got to be something I can stay interested in and research, maybe something with a purpose, endangered animals or something? I'm honestly not sure!!!


This is a pattern I made over summer that was based on The Killing Joke. I love how this turned out but I don't want to do a project basing these patterns on someone else's work I want to create something more original - as other projects I have proposed are working from other people's ideas (commemorative buffy stuff, Pan Macmillan, etc)
