Patriotic Super Stars

My entry into the Spoonflower's Stars and Stripes Contest.  There are lots of vote-worthy designs this week.  Take a look and choose your faves.

Subtle Design

When I make a design sure I want it to catch people's attention.  It should jump out and say "YO!  HERE I AM!!" (especially if it's part of a Spoonflower contest) shouldn't it?  But sometimes you just want a fabric with a bit of design to make things visually interesting but not so much that it dominates the whole room or outfit or quilt it's going to be a part of.  When you consider what you personally might do with a fabric would you want such a bold design? The above design, called "Circle Star" I think works best as a tone on tone but it can carry a two color scheme as well.  If you are a Spoonflower contest voter and you feel this design is worthy, give it a click in this week's limited palette contest.  The palette is the purple and green and the theme is 'geometric.'  There are a lot of great In-Your-Face designs in the contest this week and I voted for a lot of them, but I didn't discount some of the more subtle designs.  You shouldn't either (and I'm not just saying that because I want your vote.)

Which Star?

One of these four designs is going to be entered into Spoonflowers Stars and Stripes Fabric of the Week contest but I need help deciding which color scheme to submit.  Leave a comment to tell me which star design is your fave!

New Collection

You know that feeling of I-don't-know-what-I-want-but-I'll-know-it-when-I-see-it? Ages ago, I created the above design "Star Wishes." I was thrilled with it and I knew there was potential for a whole collection with this design as the central piece. I figured it'd be easy to develop a collection around it as I loved the colors and design element of playful stars. Actually took me a whole year. I created designs but they wouldn't quite fit the overall feel. Finally, I found the "piece" that fit and The Star Wishes Collection is finished!

Star Wishes

I'm working on a new collection to compliment this design that I created a while ago.  Looking at my designs, I notice that I tend toward blue and pink a LOT!  I'm imagining another children's theme with this one.
