Country Garden Stitchery

I got a bunch more samples back last week and have been busy cutting and photographing them. Daisy Blue is a watercolor design fabric with shasta daisies and little yellow chamomile flowers. I like the blue and yellow together. Blue Roses and Berries is a barely blue background with blue roses and sprays of berries in different colors. Mauve pink and olive greens with little dragonflies buzzing about. Green Coneflower is a really light celery green background with echinacea flower sketches with some in white here and there. A nice combination of colors it turned out to be.

I was very excited to get my fabrics from Spoonflower in the mail last week and was inspired to make some small things with it. I used my spring snippets fabric along with some of my other watercolor fabric in this needlecase. This zippered pouch uses the cabbage rose watercolor fabric. It printed out in large scale before I knew l could scale it down :) I didn't think I would like it big, but I like it sewn up. Like the big flowers. This is another one that was printed big and I liked the big flowers too. This was one of my first four fabrics. I am quickly getting addicted to Spoonflower. There's nothing quite like sewing with my own fabric that I've designed. Very fun. You can see my other fabrics here. http://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/countrygarden
