Pattern Party Postcards - Restocked!

I've restocked this set of fun postcards featuring six of my hand-drawn patterns. Super-fun to send to friends, but also sweet for hanging on the wall. Head to the shop to grab a set!  Retailers: find these on our Faire Wholesale line sheet.

New Fabric Design : White Tigers

I enjoyed drawing all these white tigers and I love how the finished pattern turned out!  I had a yard printed on organic cotton sateen and I can't wait to sew with it, though I haven't decided what to make yet.  This design is available in three colors on fabric, wrapping paper and wallpaper in my Spoonflower shop.

Cute Rodent Pouches

Here's a nice stack of pouches I made from my Cute Gnawing Rodents original fabric. This heavy cotton twill is wonderfully sturdy. I lined these with a cute yellow and white cotton floral and used peachy zippers for a fun color combo. Available in the shop in four handy sizes!  Fill them with pencils, makeup, crafting supplies, or acorns!

Tees for Two

Made last spring, this is probably my favorite sewing project of the year (so far)...  Matching tees for my niece and me.  Seems like a good time to post (and wear!) these, considering all the little fuzzballs scurrying around underfoot, stuffing their cheeks with acorns and such.

Fabric:  My Rodents/Gnawers design on Spoonflower's modern jersey.

Patterns:
My tee:  Lark by Grainline Studio
Esme's Tee:  Simplicity 1566
Leggings:  Brindille and Twig

New Fabric: Little City People & Bunny Tumble

Just received swatches of a couple new designs and I'm very happy with both. These were originally done in watercolor and it's pretty amazing how crisp and bright the details and colors are.  Little City People and Bunny Tumble are now available in my Spoonflower shop!



Also, here are a few original fabric pouches recently added to the Etsy shop:

New Fabric: Cute Rodents

These funny rodents are looking around for something to gnaw on.  Now available as fabric and wrapping paper in my Spoonflower shop.  I ordered a couple yards of modern jersey and I can't wait to sew some baby things for little friends and maybe even a t-shirt for myself!  Click here to see more colors and sizes.

New Fabric & Holiday Wrapping Paper + Fat Quarter Sale at Spoonflower

I've added a couple new fabric designs to my Spoonflower shop and just in time for their 2 for 1 fat quarter sale. Add a fat quarter to your cart and it will automatically be half off! (Through Thursday, November 12th. More info here.)

First is a Watercolor Grid in three colorways.  Each swatch below is printed on a different fabric.  From left to right: pink on linen cotton canvas, purple on poly crepe de chine and orange on sport lycra. The crepe de chine and lycra are wonderfully vibrant and the canvas is nice, but a little less saturated.  I could see this design as a pretty silky top or fun sporty leggings.











I'm pretty excited about how my festive Holiday Miscellany pattern turned out! I loved drawing all the little critters, plant bits, tiny gifts and decorations (plus there's a bonus banana hiding in there somewhere).

I had the red version printed on basic cotton ultra and plan to make more gift bags (like these). I was hesitant to order the wrapping paper because it's kind of pricey ($15 for a 26x72" roll), but it's soooo nice… Beautifully printed on thick paper. And it shipped separately in a heavy cardboard tube.  I can't wait to wrap lots of little boxes in this!





One more thing: Our Every Last Santa greeting cards are back in the shop! Can you spot the real Santa?

See you in Chicago...

We're putting all the finishing touches on our goods for the Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago this weekend. If you're in the area come say hello! (Our booth is on the south side of Division St. between Hermitage and Paulina). We're bringing lots of pouches, handmade kid's clothes, screen printed tees, paper goods, art prints, State Mazes and I'll even have some original drawings. Looking forward to it!

New Fabric: Summer Blooms

I'm excited to share my latest textile design, a bright and bold floral pattern featuring vintage-inspired blossoms scattered on a peach background.  Pictured here is one yard printed on cotton lawn ultra. The lines are crisp and the fabric is delightfully soft and lightweight.  I can't wait to sew with it!  Now if I can just decide what to make…  This fabric is now available in my Spoonflower shop!

Cat Pouches in New Sizes

Just wanted to share these Cute Cat pouches in two new sizes…  A small flat one that's perfect for corralling the little things in a purse or tote and a larger boxy pouch that would love to be used for make-up, crafting supplies or other miscellaneous trinkets.  Available here.

Free Spoonflower Swatches + Free Shipping at Society6

I'll admit, I was pretty bummed when Spoonflower discontinued their cotton voile.  After using it to make my Fox Top, I wanted to make a bunch more breezy summer garments with this gauzy, lightweight fabric…  Anyway, I'm so glad I managed to snag some before it disappeared.  Below are my voile treasures:  Animal Heads, Little Dripper (illustration by David), and Deer Garden.

The great news is that Spoonflower just introduced a new lightweight cotton lawn that I can't wait to try.  And they're offering free 8x8"swatches of it printed with whatever design you'd like (through May 5)!  To get one, choose a design and select "Cotton Lawn Ultra" and "Test Swatch". Then use promo code FREELAWN when checking out (if you're just getting a swatch, shipping will be free too). Click here to visit my Spoonflower fabric shop.



A couple more original fabrics I'm excited to sew with:  Branch Stripes and Exploded Flower Garden:



If you're looking for something new to freshen up your walls for spring or if you need something special for Mom, now's a good time to grab a print from Society6...  They're offering free worldwide shipping through Sunday, April 26th.  Click here to visit my S6 shop.

Swatch Pile

It's always fun to open a package from Spoonflower.  Last week this colorful batch of swatches arrived and I couldn't wait to take some photos!  Bright new designs among old favorites.  Lots of these are available in my fabric shop…  Scroll down for specific links.
