Frework

Fretwork patterns are generally used in Architecture and iron work. It is an openwork, ornamental pattern. These patterns are made up of flowing lines with large negative spaces in between. The designs used are typically organic and are so called Fretwork patterns because they look as though they have been created using a fretsaw, which they once were. These patterns are printed onto a finished piece of fabric.
