More faux bois

There isn't much to say about this, except: yay! faux bois! I love it so. The design is my own; I sketched it out freehand and then used dressmaker's carbon paper to transfer it to the fabric.

I don't know why I love faux woodgrain so much. It looks a little like a fingerprint, and drawing it seems to have a sort of zen-garden effect on me. So I cover everything with it.
