Spoonflower fabric samples have arrived!
I ordered swatches of the fabrics I have designed for the challenges and they came yesterday.
I am pretty happy with the colors and the quality, for the most part.
The best sample is the BUG sample! It is a cotton/linen blend and I am in LOVE!It is unusual for me to design anything "large". The size of these bugs are sooo appealing to me. I surprised myself!
I immediately sat down at the machine and made a little "Bug Bag"....

Here are the two sides of the bag - with black & white checked binding for straps.
FUN!!!
