Arabesque by Jan Hicks Creates
Arabesque is my Art Deco-ish contribution to the world of red samplers. This design started with the alphabet and it was so fun finding and developing motifs that had the same general feel. I love the slightly asymmetrical look of the mandala on the bottom left and the fan in the upper right. But for me the alphabet is the star of this show!
