Mingus Light

I’m not sure this photo does justice to the brilliance of the moment. Made me gasp. When I looked out the window, it seemed as if Mingus was glowing from the inside. Like a red-hot poker. Stopped me in my tracks. I was on my way to, do something. But I had to stop and watch the light. A few minutes, and the glow was gone.

 

Spoonflower Stash

Thirty new designs available for sale in my Spoonflower shop. Slowly but surely, it is filling up. In this batch, only two designs needed alterations. They printed lighter than the original image.

Along with my swatches, I ordered new fabric samples. These help the designer know how the same color will look on different fabrics. Also how the weave might affect a design. When I started with Spoonflower, they offered about ten types of fabric. Their offerings have nearly tripled. Organics, denim, spandex, fleece and cottons.

Still busy with maintenance of both my Spoonflower and Society6 shops. No fun at all. Redundant, and it has literally put me to sleep a few times. And no time for painting. Needs to be done though, and I will feel better when I have completed the tasks.

Thank goodness for my artist friends, and gorgeous new art in my inbox!
