Spoonflower Fabrics

Original Drawing with a blue Sharpie.  I had always thought that this design would make great fabric.  It was my inspiration for ordering Spoonflower fabrics.  I caught the bug and order some designs of my own artwork.  I ordered only fat quarter cuts to see the colors, and if I would like to order more.
Spoonflower Fabric - a fat quarter

My original drawing - doodles
I thought the Mirror Image was pretty interesting

Fabric with repeat
Journal Umbrella - Don't Rain on My Parade class at Art & Soul in Portland
I had a lot of fun tweaking my image in their program, with different contrasts, light, etc.
