Friday Feature: Fabric 8

So, I am sorry if I am turning this quilting blog into a fabric design blog! I am toying with the idea of starting a spin off blog to discuss my fabric designs there, and keep talking about quilting here. Any feedback? Is anyone annoyed with my posts on this quilting blog? Or would you like to know more about fabric design? Let me know how you are feeling, so I can make this a better blog for everyone!


But, on to the actual post....

I entered the Fabric 8 contest sponsored by Robert Kaufman and Spoonflower. I will know on Tuesday or Thursday if I have made it into the top 100 semi finalists. Then, it is up to you, yes YOU! The voting begins on May 3rd and I would LOVE if you would help support me in this dream. On May 3rd, I will let you know if I made it into the top 100. Then, head over to Spoonflower (click the link above) and vote for my fabric that I designed (below)

I love this fabric, and I really hope that it can make it to the top 8 for the second round of voting. The overall grand prize winner will be offered a contract with Robert Kaufman, 1000.00 dollars cash, 250.00 spoondollars, and a Wacom professional drawing tablet! Oh Baby! To win that would be awesome! Thanks for your support, and I hope to be delivering GREAT news next Thursday....So CHECK BACK IN!
