one night a year. This is the Chinese Qixi festival
My favorite Chinese holiday celebrates the forbidden love between a princess and a cowherd. Banished to the sky, we see them as the stars Vega and Altair. One night only every year, they can reach each other across the Milky Way via the Magpie Bridge. This holiday is called Qixi or Qiqiang in Mandarin, but some people call it Chinese Valentine's Day. This design was completely digitally hand-drawn. As always, none of my designs are AI-generated. It's always a good idea to order a test swatch before ordering any large amount of fabric online because due to your monitor settings, the colors may be different than what you see on your screen. Also, various fabrics and wallpaper print up slightly differently. For example, the grass cloth wallpaper is a hint more yellow than the others. Although this could possibly be used for wallpaper, the birds will be rather small -- viewers may not be able to figure out what the picture is of until they get close.
