So i got a comment from Dana and she recommend that i check out Spoonflower. I was like OK. So this morning, hungover from celebrating with my friends the night before with a slight headache, i went to the site and did it. i created an account, uploaded a few designs, and ordered M’s to be printed on a 21″ x 18″ piece of fabric. A jpg of what my fabric will look like is after the jump, when it comes in i’ll take pics and let you know more about it.

But what was really cool about all this is that, you can have the design you uploaded oriented in different ways and one of your choices it to have your design staggered. because i wasn’t sure at the time, which design i was going to buy i uploaded a few. One of them i put up, is one of my all time faves, Kathleen’s Flower Tiled. When checked out this one staggered, i was totally inspired and floored because it had never ever downed on me, in all the years i’ve been doing this, to stagger my tiled pieces. So all i had to do was tweak the original a bit and now it’s turned into a wavy border like piece.

This is what i should be getting in the mail from spoonflower. i’m interested to see how it’s going to turn out because what i uploaded was the 150 x 150px png that i use in the post. i’m wondering if they are going to enlarge the design for the printing or if they are going to use the size i uploaded so the design detail is going to be microscopic… who, knows well see in a few weeks.

So i’ve gotta, again, send a big thanks to Dana… who would have thought that a comment from a twitter follower, could so drastically influence years of work… it’s so exciting… so there’s lots more to come : )
