COOL NEW BOOK CONCEPT

The 'perfect child' and 'perfect DIL' are such thoughtful gift givers....I recently had a birthday and was wowed again by them.

Kelly found this terrific book for me, published by Chronicle Books.
Repro Depot Pattern Book by Djerba Goldfinger.


It contains a CD of 225 vintage inspired textile designs.


Besides this overview of the patterns, the book contains full size pages of each design and several projects ideas. The concept is to print them on paper, but I'm going to try fabric as well. I also look forward to altering the patterns using Photoshop....

Thanks for the fun kids!

Wendy asked if I was familar with Spoonflower.....a company that custom prints YOUR fabric designs.....yes, I blogged about it some time ago..... Here's their link.

Glad you're having fun with it Mouse! I can't wait to see what you do with it. I fell in love with every single print in the book!

Love,
