Gosh that is a yucky prompt for a Spoonflower challenge. We are in the depths of tea towel/ wall hanging challenges and I have to admit they are not my favorite. But I am keeping my personal promise of designing for every single challenge!
This is what I came up with ” My Magic Pencil” One pencil three colors.
As those Fall chilly days make an appearance I love to cook up a big pot of home made soup and carrot and coriander (or cilantro) is my absolute favorite. It is the inspiration for my entry into the Spoonflower design challenge this week which is asking for recipe wall hangings
It is that time of year again, the Spoonflower design challenge prompt this week is 2023 Calendars.
I looked back over the designs I have created this year to see if any of them would lend themselves to a calendar design and went a little crazy coming up with 6 designs!
This is the one I have entered
Here are the rest! I have also updated all my previous calendars with 2023 dates, the collection can be seen here
It is always fun learning about new traditions and the Spoonflower design challenge prompt this week, is Fika – a tradition I was completely unaware of. It is a Swedish coffee break where friends share a mug of something hot and indulge in a sweet treat. What is not to love about that!
I created two versions of Fika Friends and entered the dark version
I went crazy with color for the Spoonflower challeng ethis week- Out of this world Botanical. Weirdness prevails in this one, with bizarre flowers and leaves.
I do like designing florals and for this week’s challenge I reworked a previous challenge winning design into a more Victorian era floral
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
