It’s been a long time since I have entered a design in one of the Spoonflower contests. The annual Tea Towel Calendar is always a fun one. No surprise that my sunflowers would make an appearance. Sunshine in the kitchen is a great way to start the day!

If you would like to cast your vote for my design you can follow the link above. They choose a top ten, and the winner receives $100 in “spoon-dollars” which can be spent on the site. It takes roughly 250 votes to make the top ten. 500 or more to reach the number one spot. Of course that all depends on the total number of voters.

I have a second design that I will share with you soon. There is a glitch with the Spoonflower site, and I wasn’t able to upload the image. Both designs will be available for purchase, I will let you know when they are in the marketplace.

Have a spooktacular Halloween!

I am really happy with how this turned out. Again, the colors on the vase itself are not showing well. There is some contouring, and the shadows are deeper.  While working on this, I thought I may have botched the greenery. But having come back to it after a few days, it works.

I have still been working on faces….

I am also working on pattern designs as well.

Heading home tomorrow, I have been in Prescott Arizona for a few days.  So pretty here, and the weather has been cloudy and raining on and off. Perfecto!

Hope you are having a fabulous weekend in your neck of the woods!
