What size do these print at?

Each pattern is a vertical repeat with the drop built in, sized to resolve inside a standard curtain panel.

Can I get a different scene, like a harbour or a farmyard?

Yes — the direction field takes any scene, and the same island-vignette structure renders it.

Why does toile handle a gathered curtain better than a continuous pattern?

Because each scene sits as its own island rather than flowing into the next, losing half of it in a fold reads as normal rather than broken.

What are the three inks?

Madder red, indigo blue and black on cream, the classic copperplate toile palette.

A curtain hangs the pattern vertically and then gathers it, so half of every repeat disappears into a fold. Toile survives that better than most because its scenes sit as separate islands rather than a continuous motif. These nine render a mill on a river, a willow garden and a market street, each with the drop built into the repeat. Ask for a different scene — a harbour, a farmyard, a garden party — and the same island-vignette structure carries it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
