Fat Quarter Tea Towels

Ursa Major Tea Towel (peacock blue)


Have you see all the exciting new stuff going on at Spoonflower? Since they opened it up as a market place, there have been lots of little adjustments, making it more user friendly and fun to browse and shop.  Plus, when people buy your fabric designs, you earn money  - which you will undoubtedly spend on Spoonflower fabrics.  It feels a bit like a big idea swap.

I haven't had much time to play with designs lately (add that to my list of things to do next year...), but I wanted to take advantage of the fat quarter sale they have right now.  A linen-cotton fat quarter measures 27x18" which makes a lovely tea towel when hemmed.  I drew this little bear illustration after our recent study of Ursa Major.

I'm trying it in three shades of blue.  I'll let you know how they turn out.  The fat quarter sale lasts through Friday, I think - so there's still plenty of time to put together a few designs of your own, or browse tea towel designs already for sale.
