Fun with Fabric!

I need to give a big thank you to a blogger I just recently discovered, Tuppence Ha'Penny, for blogging Spoonflower yesterday!  I stayed up way too late yesterday night obsessing over creating my first fabric print in Photoshop!  It's based on a 1930's feedsack that I have but is in rough shape.  Here it is!  I'm rather proud of how it came out.  Let's hope the swatch comes out as I'm hoping.
I stylized the image here a bit.  The sample that was uploaded to Spoonflower doesn't have the "fabricy" texture applied to it and is higher resolution.

  1. I love it! I've been looking for a similar print myself :-)

    What are you going to make with it?

  2. Thanks! Assuming all goes well with the swatch, I plan to make available to order on Moonflower.

    I'm thinking of making the peasant blouse from this pattern:

  6. Thanks ladies! I really hope it comes out. I have a nautical print all ready too, but not sure if I should go ahead and get it printed or wait for the other swatch first to see how it looks.
