| Nasturtium fabric in 4 sizes + polka dot accent fabrics. |
I've wanted to design fabric for years, but the cost of having small portions of fabric printed was pretty expensive. Since Spoonflower came along though, I've been having a great time making things with my own fabric. Thank you Spoonflower! I hope you have a long and prosperous life.
Spoonflower recently started a program to let fabric designers sell their fabric to others, so I put my Nasturtiums fabric for sale and then forgot about it for a while until I needed to upload a design for a baby blanket that I was making for a friend. When I logged on, I was delighted to find that lots of people had been buying my fabric!
That was inspiration enough for me! I designed more fabric to sell and have lots more in the works.
Spoonflower prints each fabric order on demand-- just specify the amount of fabric and type of cloth you would like to have and Spoonflower makes it and sends it to you. I love that there is so little waste involved in the process--no unsold inventory. I've been extremely happy with the extra-careful printing quality, the quality of cloth and how it stands up to washing and other abuse I subject it to. You can choose basic cotton (quilting weight), stretch knit, cotton-linen blend (my favorite), upholstery fabric, sheer cotton lawn, and more.
You can find my fabrics at http://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/anntuck. Since my Nasturtiums design is so popular, I decided to offer some polka-dot accent fabrics that go with it (I love polka-dots), I'm also offering the Nasturtiums in different sizes. Nasturtiums (great size for everything from quilts to garments), Nasturtiums Petite (nice smaller print with a Liberty of London feel--for smaller applications like doll clothes, or shirts, or anywhere you would use a calico print.), Nasturtiums Bold (use where you would like a bolder print--perhaps a skirt), and Nasturtiums Jumbo (could be used for drapery or bedding).
I've also finished some other designs that I really like. More on that later.

So happy to see you super actvie and doing what you love.....Great stuff.
I am so glad you made this! I have always been looking for nasturtium fabric and found yours. I'm about to order to make a stuffed rabbit off etsy. Yay!
Oh! I'd love to see your rabbit when it's done. The nasturtium design is my most popular. I should make some more designs like it.
I make some polka dot accent fabrics to match the nasturtiums, by the way.
Let me know if you post a picture of your rabbit on the Spoonflower Filckr pool or somewhere.
Thanks!
