Inspiration for this shawl came from a design I’ve doodled since a child, flowers, ruffled, full petal flowers. Which eventually made me think of the movie Blue Gardenia. During my research I found this great photo of a flower and thought those are the perfect colors. It’s so much fun pulling these things together.
