Brag Monday

Karen from the Graphics Fairy is hosting this lovely day.  A day where we can share what we have created with her generous gifts of beautiful images.

I love designing fabric on Spoonflower, and a while back I contacted Karen and asked her permission to have a fabric printed of her lovely designs.  I couldn't wait to get started when she said yes.

I am partial to French Script, so I took a bit of this...

and a bit of that,

and added one more

along with my peony photograph, which I made a bit lighter to compliment the design.

Then I went to my Spoonflower account and uploaded these images to create my designs, and I created the design I call Paris Pillow.

The advantage of using Spoonflower to print your fabric, as opposed to the transfer method is that you can care for the fabric as you would any professionally printed fabric.

You can order the fabric in large quantities, any scale,



any fabric that they offer and in a centered, repeat, half-drop, mirror or brick layout.

So, I ordered the fabric in my large print design, I call Paris Pillow.  Centered on a fat quarter of their lovely Quilting Cotton, measuring 21" x 18".  I especially love creating fabric to make pillows.



When the fabric arrived I couldn't wait to make this pillow...




I wrote a tutorial on the process.  I hope that you decide to upload a design and join the Spoonflower community....seeing your designs become fabric while meeting lovely people who will inspire you.


Thank you Karen, your work is so inspirational.

So, now let's visit Karen for Brag Monday and see all the wonderful things that people design using Karen's wonderful graphics.
