Jenni Rogers – The Designer Project

We’ve absolutely adored sharing the delicious ‘Blooms & Bakes’ Collection by artist Jenni Rogers for this installment of The Designer Project!  

As passionately described by Jenni, “When I bake the texture and colours consume me – there is never ending inspiration from these subjects. It’s life and it is a part of us all”. Jenni’s creative process starts with feelings that she gains from the observation of these subjects. Then her mind starts to envision how it could look, usually painting from still life, photos or real life as in plain air.

We hope that you have all loved Jenni’s beautiful collection as much as we have! Each of Jenni’s designs can be found in our Fabric Shop online. Keep reading to find out more about Jenni’s work, inspirations and typical creative process! 

Jenni Rogers

Hi, my name is Jenni Rogers, artist, surface pattern designer and chef and I’m based in the beautiful Byron Bay Hinterland. I love creating paintings/patterns that combine two of my favourite things –  cooking and art. 

And I’m super excited to be included in the Designer project with Digital Fabrics, thank you!  

I thought I’d introduce myself by sharing a little behind the scenes look at how my patterns start, what my inspiration is and how my sketches and paintings evolve into the patterns you see here at Digital Fabrics. 

Almost all of my initial inspiration comes from food in some way or another whether it be raw ingredients, like how vanilla paste sparkles in the sun on a teaspoon (that may sound odd to you…lol ) or a messy table after a great meal shared with family and friends, with serviettes, plates stacked, etc. Yes these are the things that capture my attention!   

I find all aspects of food and cafes very emotional.  I often associate memories to food. I know when I bake bread, I think of my dad in the kitchen baking these enormous loaves for our family, my Grandma and I making little, sweet jam mushrooms with icing and pastry stalks and my mum and I destroying the kitchen through cake decorating, every bowl and appliance in the house was used. Our favourite recipes remind us of our loved ones – when we create them, in a way, it brings them back to us. My paintings and then patterns are a way of capturing those images. 

This is my initial process on how I create a pattern and it starts in the kitchen:  

1/Photograph whilst making the recipe – usually cake! 

2/ Eat baked goodies and share with family   

3/ Sketch out different elements within the baking process to see what looks good and to plan how the recipe will read and if its easy to follow. 

4/ play around with painting different parts of the process  

5/ This is the finished painting below.  I call it Recipe-art.

 

Once the painting is finished, I then use some or all of the elements within the painting to create patterns.  I start by scanning in my finished painting, basically pulling it apart on photoshop and then arranging them into repeat patterns.  I usually end up with at least 50+ patterns from each recipe, its actually hard to stop! 

High Tea Design WIP

And this is the finished pattern. 

“High Tea” and it’s available to use now within Digital Fabrics. 

I would love to see what you make with my patterns and I hope this has inspired you to get busy creating!  Please tag both Digital Fabrics (@digitalfabrics) and myself on Instagram or Facebook.

‘Blooms & Bakes’ Textile Collection by Jenni Rogers

We’re super excited to be bringing The Designer Project back for 2024 and can’t wait to share all of this year’s fantastic artists and their incredible work! To kick things off for the year we’re introducing you all to the ultra-talented artist and designer Jenni Rogers and her ‘Blooms & Bakes’ Collection!

Jenni is an Australian artist, surface pattern designer and chef, who is based in the beautiful Byron Bay Hinterland and delights in creating paintings that combine two of her favourite things – cooking and art. She bought her first cafe when she was just 16 years old – The Chelsea Teahouse in Avalon. It was only later in life that she discovered her love for painting. This love is what lead Jenni to go on to create artworks depicting beautifully presented food. Jenni is in her element whilst baking beautiful cakes, biscuits, pastries and turning them into works of art.

Below we’ve shared a bit about each of Jenni’s incredible designs from her ‘Blooms & Bakes’ Collection and the different types of projects we think they’d be perfect for!

Brunch is a fun colourful hand painted watercolour. This design has everything you need to bake lamingtons from the butter, vanilla , eggs and cocoa powder to the Kenwood chef mixer and not to mention my favourite Falcon oven.

Brunch would be perfect for any kitchen homewares such as aprons, tea towels and oven mits!

Sunset Poppy is a warm floral print with hand-painted watercolour golden poppies cascading over a deep rich earth red watercolour background.

Sunset Poppy would work great for table linen! Think Table Runners, Table Cloths and Napkins.

Honeycomb is a patchwork style design with a delicate golden thread weaving in and around the honeycomb pattern. This is a multi-directional pattern with soft and delicate pinks and yellows.

Honeycomb is a fantastic print for any fashion project! We’re thinking a lovely springtime dress.

Let Your Light Shine is an abstract pattern created from one of Jenni’s oil paintings, “Red Table” and pieced back together with a delicate gold thread. Vibrant bold colours of deep reds, burgundy, yellow ochre, white and gold.

Let Your Light Shine is another amazing print for any fashion project!

Trending: Textile Wedding Decor

One of the hottest new trends in wedding styling is textile decor and here at Digital Fabrics we make it even easier to incorporate personalised textile elements to your wedding day styling with low minimum order quantities and hands-on support to bring your vision to life.

Textile wedding decor instantly adds a next-level luxe feel to your Big Day, making it effortless to weave your chosen colour palette through your ceremony or reception venue and add little pops of unexpected surprise and delight for your guests. Let us explain three easy ways to incorporate fabric decor into your wedding.

Wedding Signage

Personalised printed textile banners and signage can add an unexpected touch of wow to your nuptials. We love seeing couples incorporate textile wedding signage into their scheme as they can soften hard or brutalist architectural venues (think big stone buildings or industrial warehouse spaces). What’s more, a fabric banner or sign can effortlessly command attention in a large-scale space. Consider printing your seating chart onto fabric, your wedding day order of events onto fabric or your bar menu onto a textile hanging. Whether it’s gently fluttering in the breeze in an outdoor venue or creating a striking divide between interior spaces – you won’t be disappointed with your guests’ reactions.

Table Decor

Ok, you might be thinking table decor, that’s obvious, but hear us out. The majority of wedding venues and stylists will hire their table decor – think napkins, table runners and tablecloths. Whilst they may stock luxurious linens, often getting the perfect colour isn’t very easy as you have to pick from the available stock. If you have a complex colour palette, a bold design or a specific shade in mind, printing your own wedding decor may provide an opportunity to add an unexpected twist.

We love printing personalised table decor for our customers. A great idea is printing personalised placemats or napkins that guests can then take home with them as an alternative wedding favour.

Stationery

We all know that first impressions count, so what could make a more striking impression than a beautifully printed textile-based invitation. We’ve loved seeing wedding stylists get creative and use fabric instead of paper for their couples’ invitations. It’s something that’ll get all your guests talking about your Big Day well in advance of the event.

Here at Digital Fabrics we stock a wide range of wedding-appropriate fabrics including luxe natural cotton linens, strong and durable cotton drill or canvas and floaty, romantic chiffons and lightweight weaves. Importantly, we can print in any colour you need – that means you can precisely match the pantone that you are trying to achieve. What’s more, you can help reduce the environmental impact of your event. All our fabric bases are sourced from sustainable and ethical suppliers and where possible we use recycled fabrics.

We’re lucky to get to work with leading industry stylists and coordinators and many happy couples to help elevate their wedding celebrations with fabric flair. Just contact us to find out more.

The Fowlers Gap Mini School – Jo Mellor

We’ are super excited to be sharing another amazing project from Sydney-based textile artist Jo Mellor ! You can read more about her first incredible project here.

Jo spent a week at Fowlers Gap Research station, Northern NSW in August with The School of the Air kids (aged 4yrs old to 12 years old), teachers, governesses and parents.  Jo was resident artist and taught various art projects to approximately 80 children from the School of the Air (Broken Hill). Several of the art activities included using our remnant fabric that would have otherwise gone to waste, and we feel so fortunate to have contributed!

The artist herself has shared the blog below which details a few of the activities in which the remnant fabrics were used for and includes a series of photos captured of the art projects . Keep reading to find out more!

Activity 1
Here are some dyed pieces the children made with paint.

Activity 2
 
The small remnant fabric pieces were used to wrap tree branches and rocks and then use either a crayon, charcoal or pencil to press down on the bark or rock which caused different patterns to appear onto the fabric.

Activity 3
The large remnant fabric pieces were made into fabric banners for each class at School of the Air as mementos of their time at Fowler’s Gap Mini School.    
Each banner featured traced drawings of rocks, leaves  and sticks as well as each Child’s painted hand print.
If you’d love some fabric off cuts to use for your DIY projects, come on down to our warehouse and grab as many as you need!

Diane in her Studio

Hello, my name is Diane Quee, artist and designer. I’m so excited to be joining up with Digital Fabrics to bring you designs for you to create personal items with.

I am a freelance graphic designer who is passionate about designing logos and brand identity, drawing, painting and creating surface pattern designs. In my leisure time, I love to create artworks using different media such as pencils, oil, watercolour and pastel.  Also, I am inspired by the works of other artists; for example, the impressionist painters and certain contemporary artists. Inspired by the beauty of nature, I experiment and create various pattern designs.

Eucalyptus Flower Sketches

My design process usually starts with doing sketches in my sketchbook. I am inspired by the colours, textures and patterns in nature and nature provides the trigger for my creative juices. For example, I would use a pen or pencil and watercolours to sketch flowers and trees that inspire me.

Dinosaur Design Sketches

After creating the sketches, I scan and convert them to digital files so that I can edit and manipulate them in Photoshop and Illustrator.

For vector repeat patterns, I create each individual design element first and then arrange them in a visually pleasing composition on the computer screen. I experiment with different colours and compositions to see what works best for the design elements.

Nature Inspiration

Often, I use a limited number of colours in each pattern so that the design is clean and cohesive.

Creating repeat patterns can be challenging, but it is also a satisfying experience when I see the design process coming together and the endless possibilities that the patterns can be used for. I would like my patterns to bring joy and happiness to people, as well as being versatile in its application. That is, the patterns can be used on a range of items from fabric to homeware products.

Summer and Spring Leaves Sketches

I hope you are inspired to bring some of my designs into your life! Be inspired. Be Creative.
