Here are swatches of my latest spoonflower designs.  The first two are called Frances (pink) and Myrtle (yellow).  These were both based off of a couple of patches on a 1930’s quilt.  My fabric is just a little larger scale than the original.  The pink/red one is pretty much the colors of the original fabric (as I envision they were 70+ years ago).  The yellow/orange combo is my invention.

“Fish N Hook” is printed on Spoonflower’s knit fabric.  It is a really nice knit – super heavy and very soft.  It was inspired by a sign that I saw in the background of someone’s vacation photo on Flickr.  I can’t tell you any more than that.  The photo wasn’t very memorable, I think it was Italy, but the fish on the sign at the restaurant stuck in my head.  I am thinking if I can find a pattern for a really cute boat neck t-shirt, I might splurge on a yard and make myself a shirt.

Then we have “Oboe Blues” designed for Andy.  There’s a silhouette of an oboe there – some of the people I showed this one to didn’t see that right away.  This one is printed on the home decor canvas weight fabric.  The base fabric is not my favorite, it seems to have a sort of loose weave.  My swatch has frayed a lot with handling.
