Computer Glitches
Some of the most amazing discoveries are completely accidental. I do my design work in a computer software package that I taught myself how to use and I am much better with a sewing machine than I am with this software. While working on a design that included strong thorn-like shapes, I accidentally hit a button that warped that shape into a graceful arc, which had a very strong Art Deco vibe. I built on that and added a few other elements to create a full Art Deco design which we have created as stoles, chasubles, paraments and banners. While it is a very strong statement for Pentecost, it works in any color palette.
