fabric/cushion prints

I had a four day staycation from work and most of the time I read fabric craft blogs.I am interested and excited about taking off painting whole canvases and focusing on a print or rather prints.My prints are random colour wise,will organise them in groupings once I get rid of what does not seem good.Am doing them by hand as photoshop and illustration are on my top list of things to learn and expand my horizons on.what seems good might end up on cushions for the outdoors,throw pillows or I will sew some roman shades up.This is what i came up with,

escada's spring collection has this two ensembles that I love.Very chic colors.
