It all dates back to a Dutch artist - Pieter Cornelis Mondrian (1872-1944) - nicknamed 'Piet'. He was one of the principal members of the Neoplasticism art movement. In 1919 he began producing grid-based paintings for which he became renowned for the rectangular shapes, solid black lines and random placement of primary colors.
In the 1960's, Yves St. Laurent popularized his 'Mondrian' dresses using Piet as his inspiration.
Color blocking has become popular again and of course, you can do this with your SFD patterns. Creating areas to color block on your patterns is creative and easy to do. Just start off with Sally Silhouette as your croquis and experiment with where you'd like to draw your style lines for color blocking.
If you don't yet have your copy of Sally Silhouette, you can download her from the Free Stuff page on our web site. Click Here.
