Playing around, coming up with some ideas - I hope

Today I actually did some work. I finally decided not to worry about what I might come up with, I just needed to do some designing.
So I took one of my drawings, traced it and made it into a print block.
Then I printed it on paper - I decided not to waste any fabric until I had an actual idea for its development.
I'm not sure why I chose purple, I think I was just over black and white.
I then played around with various repeat prints. Still no idea what I might develop from it but at least I was DOING something.
Flipped and rotated prints.
Block repeat.
Block repeat on a much bigger piece of paper, rotated blocks.
Half drop block print - not measured or registered, just done by eye, trying out the design.
Maybe I can use it to print some fabric for patchwork. Not going to worry about it at this stage.
