My new design is a striped pattern with a lazy Sunday feel about it, and was entered in a contest about sailing.

Market Goods 4 - Pencil cases

Back to the market goods story, today's post is about the beautiful pencil cases that Tasha made with my fabrics.
I also managed to get a photo of me at the market. Winnie had taken it on her iPhone, almost at the close of the day, but forgot to send it to me until now.

Late Easter interruption

I wanted to have done this post before Easter but life often gets in the way and I didn't have the time.
It's about a pattern I designed with Painted Eggs as a subject for one of the many contests run by Spoonflower.
I have yet to win one of these contests, but in the meantime they teach me how to design to a prescribed subject and to a deadline, which is not always easy.
I chose to design a geometric pattern symbolizing a birds eye view of an egg carton containing both painted and unpainted eggs.
This is my entry. I called it Egg Carton polka dots.

Market Goods 3 - Cushion covers

Continuing the story of the market goods, today's post is about the cushion covers.
I've only designed and made 4 different ones, all very simple envelope style. The best selling design was the "Boobook and Hakea" but my favourite one is the "Woman and Peacocks" design.

Market Goods 2 - Baby quilts

Today's post is the second installment on the Crafters Market story.
This one is about the baby quilts I made for the market. All quilts are made from one yard of fabric because they are printed in the US and the Americans have not converted to metric.
One yard is 91cm. All fabrics are on sale at my Spoonflower shop.
