Here comes the weekend...and I am going to be heading upstate tonight, for a few days with my family. I'm really looking forward to it. I had a very busy week...visiting Printsource, preparing and sending holiday gift guide pitches, and working on a major revision to my website. In related news, I've been sampling some fabric printed with my designs, and I'm really enjoying the process. Up here are a few test prints. These are not quite right yet, I am still working on scale, color, and other details in terms of product...but I think they look pretty good so far, and I wanted to share them.
I have to say, seeing my designs on textiles has ben a longtime dream of mine. Now that it is slowly becoming reality, it's taking some adjusting to. But it's very exciting for me. I feel a bit self-conscious sharing these, but even though that's the case, I wanted to share my excitement with you.
Have wonderful weekends all! Here is to making dreams happen, even if it takes a while. x S
ps. have some paisley.
Lovely! How exciting! It's so satisfying to see your patterns come to life on fabric - it never ceases to thrill me. Congrats, and happy weekend to you.

Thank you. Coming from someone with your sense of style, that really means a lot.
It's taking some time to get used to the scale (lots bigger than I'm used to working) And, to match the image in my mind to what is coming out on the fabric...slowly but surely, though! You have a great weekend too.

Susy, you did it! Glorious. So happy for you (and for me, when the fabric goes on the market).
We need to toast!

hi Susy-
often it is the longer worked for goal/dream that really is sweet reward. a lovely glimpse of green fabric with those earthy prints. recently i opened an online store via Etsy (a 4 year goal and one i kept my eyes on.. even without available internet for 2+ years)
congratulations to You & all artists!
kindest wishes*
