Watercolours, Sewing and Fabric Design

 Doodlewash Watercolour Challenge

Wooden Toy

Hands and Gloves - I'm not very good at drawing hands so I thought I would do a silly drawing instead.

Sewing
I made a baby dress and bib for my new granddaughter due next month, this should fit when she is about 3 months.

The fabric is purchased, not my design.
I also made a summer dress for my other granddaughter who will be two in May. 
I found this pattern on Pinterest.


Spoonflower
I've been working on a design for a Spoonflower contest, the theme is hand drawn florals. Use of earth tones and florals from native [backyard] botanicals are suggested. Also think of the end product as blouse fabric - this I forgot about plus the backyard bit so I'm not sure either of these will be suitable. Can you imagine either of these as blouse material?

  1. very nice painted page and sewn children's things, great patterns.
    The first flower pattern I think would look great as a blouse!
    Happy PPF, hug Elke

  3. Your family will be very well dressed indeed.
    As for the Spoonflower prints, I think I would prefer them for a curtain... What is the scale of the prints?

    1. The scale is too big for blouse fabric but that can be altered. I tend to keep them quite big for the contest so that the details can be seen better.
