Happy Friday! Here are today's two patterns:
First, the "fancy": Pattern Turina
Why it's "fancy": Thin "Roman numeral" letter forms (with a touch of elegance in the decorative loops) harken back to bygone eras.
Why it's great: The straight lines and handle-bar mustache curves instantly make me think of steampunk - an homage to the 1800s with a modern twist.
And now, the "funky": Pattern Dahlia
Why it's "funky": From a distance, the negative white space becomes more prominent, giving the pattern a "checkerboard picnic tablecloth" feel.
Why it's great: Up close, the thin curves create cloud-like shapes that are sectioned off by competing lines and arcs.

Shameless plug time: Love my patterns? I incorporate them into a lot of the artwork I create, from stationery for Invites by Andrea to the watercolors I paint. Check out Invites by Andrea's website to see examples of these patterns in use or drop me a line at andrea@invitesbyandrea.com to let me know what you think!
