Really Pleased With This...

This fabric came from the printers a couple of weeks ago.  This is the first time I have ever had my own designs printed - the wonders of digital allowing just a small run to be a realistic option.  
I am really happy with how the repeat works - I have been teaching myself the delights of conquering pattern and how those cheeky naughty motifs behave when I try to create a non-directional all over repeat...and breathed a big sigh of relief when the repeat matched up well!




I got this woodland creatures design printed onto lovely creamy off-white organic cotton jersey. It is so soft and drapes beautifully. 
I am going to treat my little boy to a pair of snazzy Mum's-made pj's!



It is a fab feeling to have and to hold a lovely fabric knowing that you drew out the first sketches on paper, scanned them in, worked on the ideas in Photoshop, developed a background, carefully chose and combined the colours and spent ages experimenting with layout - the cycle is complete!
