Possum Rescue

This is Twist, a brush tail possum joey who lost his mum when he fell down a chimney through a chimney pot.

Meg rescued him, and as you can see she put him in a pouch she made using one of my Spoonflower fabrics. Watch the rescue live on camera here.

Under the Sea teeshirt

Remember  my teeshirt entry in the "One yard wonders" competition?
I have finally sewn it together and here it is!

First patterns for 2013

I've been wanting to do some new designs with black swans for a while. I had to think about it really carefully because it is such a strong subject colourwise. It is just so dominant.
I decided on a toile type of pattern, a little bit kitch which I love, but without crossing into downright bad taste.

I'm happy with the result. I might use both to renovate an old chair I have stored away in the cellar.

Merry Christmas 2012

To all my friends and blog followers Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Last contest for 2012

The last contest I entered this year was sponsored by the One-Yard Wonders books by Storey Publishing.
Contestants had to download a template for a little girl's Tshirt, and decorate it. The theme was "Under the Sea".
This is my entry.

Riviera Tee

I haven't tested it yet and it is too late for Christmas this year. I'll do it next year and then I'll have something to blog about again.

New Products at Society6

Society6 has added cushion covers to the range of printed goods they offer.
These are now for sale at my shop.

The print is on both sides and they come with a zipper. I think they look rather good, and I could not sell them for that price ($20) if I made them myself.

New Designs

I've designed a new collection of 3 different patterns. They are now for sale at my Spoonflower shop.

Vine and Butterflies

Nesting Birds
