Spoonflower fabric designs

I recently came across a website called Spoonflower.com, which enables people to upload and print their own fabric designs. Instead of working on my numerous sewing projects, I've been obsessively experimenting with fabric ideas in Photoshop, trying to figure out how to make things tile. I ordered a few of my designs on small test swatches on the Free Swatch Day last week, and am looking forward to seeing the fabric.

Here is one design based on a drawing I made of ginkgo leaves: ginkgo-pink

wrap skirt

I'm Amy. I went to college with cignoh and worked with her in San Francisco. I watched her "thing a day" in February and decided I should be more creative. I tried beading, but my husband was far better than me at it. I bought a sewing machine instead. He's also better at that, but I don't care. For me, it's more about the fabric than the final product. This photo is one of my wrap skirts. I just started my own blog last week http://badskirt.blogspot.com/ before I knew about this one. No need to visit though, I'll try to post of the better things here.
Thank you all for sharing your work!
Amy
