Spoonflower Swatches


These are some of the Spoonflower fabric swatches I got the other day, I'm really pleased with how they came out.





I used images from the Graphics Fairy and ephemera from The land of Nod for the design above.



These two were developed from a piece of hand painted fabric which I had embroidered.


The one above is one of my favourites, I started with a photo of a decorative pillar on the Natural History museum building.
The spotty toadstools was one that I created on my galaxy note pad.

Frog under a Spotty Toadstool Fabric


Remember my frog shelter series? I've altered this one to put on a t-shirt [or could be anything else they sell] at the Zazzle store.

I altered this frog a few weeks ago to make a fabric design for a Spoonflower competition - I didn't win. The fabric is not for sale at the moment but it could be, I only have to order a swatch to check it out, then Spoonflower would sell it. See here.

This was the original watercolour from my sketchbook
The flowers were originally white but I thought the bluebells would show up better. I also added a little rhyme after scanning.

Orchid, Toadstools and Poppy ATC's


my orchid is looking very nice at the moment



and my toadstools are growing very well


I've been having a bit of a sort out & came across a painting stuffed in a drawer, so I cut it up and made three little ATC's
