Decollect

My Decollect design is up for voting in Spoonflower's Large Scale Art Deco challenge, previewed on a duvet!

Bring Back the Flour Sack

This grandma's flower garden quilt was made by some of my female relatives in the 1930s. 

It was likely created using their old dresses and flour sacks, and the whole thing was pieced and sewed by hand, which is absolutely incredible! Some of the hexagons are torn off with wear. 

Now the cheery quilt hangs on the wall behind my computer and art desk, inspiring vintage style designs!

This is my new surface pattern design motto, and this is my start to the return of the calico!

Que Sera Sera

Spoonflower's contest of the week is a special one. They've teamed up with Carousel Designs to find the best southwest-inspired print for baby bedding. The winning design will be used by Carousel in a new collection. Thinking dream catchers and bright feathers and heart-tipped arrows would be perfect for decorating the contemporary crib? Well, well, then lucky for you my Que Sera Sera design is in the running! Voting is open on the weekly challenge page!
