I have a bird feeder in my garden and get such pleasure watching the birds come and go. The Birding Spoonflower challenge is one that definitely spoke to me! I went for the water bird route… there is something quite magic about discovering a pond with ducks and their babies in it.
Ooooh when I think of Granny square and big basket of scrap yarn in a rainbow of colors come to mind and some clever granny jiggling away with a crochet hook and making something fabulous.
Granny’s Got Colorful Yarn
My Halloween designs are some of my best sellers on my Spoonflower shop… all year round too! This week I got to add another to my collection, the design challenge is Eclectic witch and I went for a Witches Kitchen …a bubbling caldron with shelves full of witchy ingredients for an amazing spell
and me being me I also created a couple of other colorways!
I love designing floral patterns and this week’s Spoonflower challenge, Retro Floral had me going all over the place. I ended up creating three designs in a number of colorways and then put myself in the same position I had last week…which one to enter!
It is dark stormy day here in Chicago so I have ended up going for the most colorful and cheerful design- aptly named Brightly Floral
Voting will take place on a curtain panel this week, so here it is mocked up
Oh and here were the other contenders
Having been doing the Spoonflower challenged religiously for the past 2.5 years it is a bit surprising to me that prompts are repeated. In April 2021 we had a prompt for intergalactic adventures and this week the prompt is Space exploration … it really is the same thing. As a result I got a bit bogged down in what to create and ended up designing three completely different concepts.
But that is part of the challenge, right!
I ended up going with with ” Welcome Earthling“
and just in case you were wondering here were the other contenders. I actually love the Pis in space one… complete with a Big Bad Wolf in a rocket! All designs are for sale in my Spoonflower shop and part of the Outer Space collection
