When making a Madhubani painting, many things can act as an inspiration. Indian fabric designs is one of them. Indian clothes' embroidery and prints are somewhat like Madhubani paintings. They have borders, flowers, contrasting colors.
One day I just went through all my mother-in-law's and my saris, suits, shawls, dupattas and bed sheets and took photos of the flowers and borders on them. When I finished all our cloth patterns and designs we went to our neighbor to take photos of her saris.
This is to show you some folk designs commonly used on Indian clothes and fabric. I have noticed that flowers and patterns are very similar as to those in Madhubani paintings. So why not use some in your paintings?
