Kites

kites and squares

You may have noticed that I am lately participating quite often in Spoonflower's week contests and this week the theme is - kites (small size prints).
Here is my new entry for the Kites contest, that made it into the top ten finalists;)

Above you may see some neat and simple coordinates-squares, recently added to the Playground collection, just as the kites prints.




And what I am working on now is the boys tie template - cut and sew pattern to be added to my pattern collection. Making boys ties is very easy, but the problem is that the fabric needs to be cut in bias, which sometimes isn't working with all fabrics regarding theirs repeat type-pattern, so I think this may be a good and easy way to create the tie. And to fill better the fat quarter sheet there are 6 pieces that will create a beautiful softie ball. Hope you'll enjoy.

Also, my fabrics (some of them) from the same Playground collection and some bibs are available for purchase in beautiful on-line store in Norway, called Gerd Fjellanger. I am so loving it!!!
