Daily Swatch: Pattern Types – Four-Way

The Daily Swatch features a piece of vintage fabric (almost) every day. Themes change periodically. Please add your own examples of the theme to the True Up and/or Vintage Fabric Flickr pools.

This week we’ll look at the last type of pattern direction, four-way. These are going to mostly be your grid-based geometrics — squares, diamonds, plaids, checks — but any designs that look the same if rotated 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees qualify. Here are several from Antiquefabric.com — they have too many good feedsacks to choose just one.
