i want to make a fabric on spoonflower!

owl_pattern_orange_and_beige_copy_highres

this is a spoonflower fabric design by papersparrow (andrea lauren). her designs are great. i'm going to buy a whole truck load of them...but first:

i really really really want to make a fabric on spoonflower but i haven't got the faintest idea where to start! i can draw a little and i love love fabric but how can i translate that into fabric?

if you don't know what spoonflower is, it's a pretty amazing website where you can buy fabrics by the metre designed by individuals and crafters and at home designers and self starter no good nicks like steph and me. AND you can design your own and pay for it to be professionally finished! MAGIC, right?

Anyway, instead of getting overwhelmed I'm setting myself the spoonflower challenge... check this space for themaybepile's designs. coming very very soon.

check out papersparrow's fabric's here.

Vroom...

Got this fabric on a cycling trip to Alexandra in country Victoria. Honestly the best op shop I've ever been to! It's actually an old sheet set.

I'm gonna make it into this playsuit. It's going to be sweet. total outfit for under $5! Pretty great.

I'm always on the look out for great oppy's so let me know any good ones you've come across.
