I thought it was high time that I introduced you to my very own yardage designs ... beginning with the one that I teased you with on Friday. Meet "Swizzle" ...
Swizzle (so named because it looks a bit like a swizzle stick to me) started life as a doodle in my sketchbook ...
The idea came from a daisy chain, which I then played around with until I settled on a basic stripe effect pattern. The design is realtively small scale because I wanted a fabric that I could use for smaller projects and trims.
I'm a bit obsessed with red and teal at the moment, so I had this design hand printed in both teal on an offwhite hemp/organic cotton basecloth, and deep red on a natural linen/cotton basecloth ...
Both colourways of this design will be available in fat quarters (approx 70cm x 50cm) at the Melbourne Stitches & Craft Show. You will be able to buy this fabric in my online shop after the show.
Stay tuned for another design tomorrow!
