BOOK - pattern + palette 3

im back from my summer break today - and to break me back into the swing of things gently im posting a couple of books i bought whilst i was away. pattern + palette 3 is the third in this excellent series, and this time rockport have turned to the fabulous british design gillian blease. if you have bought the previous books then you will already be familiar with the way these books work. the book is divided into six sections based on colour groups and pattern styles, and each page demonstrates how sets of colours will look together. see pattern+palette 3 by gillian blease here on amazon uk or amazon usa. im off now to start plowing through the backlog of emails : )

Oooo I love Rockport books, I have around 10 books myself. I've never heard Pattern + Palette before. I may have to make a trip to the local bookstore and flip through it myself! Looking at your snaps... it reminds me a lot of the ColourLovers' website.
