The left-hand side with a light brown checkered line, I think it really emphasizes the fabric texture and greatly stands out the design pattern, however as a result of the design itself which already included red plaid, under too much with the grid design will affecting the visual effect and being a bit chaotic, therefore I finally decided to retain the original lines.

Imitated the front side and did the same thing with the back again. Also, I copied some major colour next to the template, which leads me easier to create a similar colour pattern for the collection.
