i have a soft spot for feathers and patterns so this first image was all i needed to see to get excited about olio united’s group pattern show in portland. olio just launched their latest group show, repeat: a collection of functional patterns, featuring work by textiles artists, illustrators, crafters and designers across the globe. you can sneak a little peek online right here or check out the show in person at olio united if you’re in the portland area.
