Show and Tell

I just had to post these two new images posted in my Show and Tell Flickr Group by becauseimme and makeitperfect.





Also saw this photo of the On A Whim fabrics and the Vida dress pattern from Farbemix. So sweet!( I apologize I cannot find the link to this) but it was so wonderful, I had to share it.

Spoonflower Fabric Apron

Here is my third project using my Spoonflower and my own digitally printed fabrics. This was so much fun to put together and oh so much fun to wear! Makes me feel like a modern day June Cleaver..... off to make some sandwiches:)


(a little side note about the color, the checks are actually a neon orange that matches the orange flower in the pocket exactly, but the photo reads red and white checks. The orange color does add a little extra surprising somethin')

Dino Pants!

This felt great! When I first did this dino series to sell for the children's apparel market, I envisioned a cute little boy's outfit. I did sell one of the designs out of the group, but wound up keeping a few for myself including this one that I just sent to Spoonflower. The colors came out great.... I sewed these pants last night, the orange plaid was in my fabric stash. Then I made the coordinating tee. I hope you like them as much as I do.

She is right at home in my studio:)

In Repeat

My Spoonflower fabrics arrived! Here they are in repeat along with another floral print that I designed and digitally printed myself. I am planning to make a boy's outfit with the dinos, an apron with the birds, and a stuffed toy with the birds and floral.....yippee!
The colors came out great!
