Spring Sewing Projects



Hello Spring!
(at least in our minds, if not reflected in the weather)

Every spring I draw up a list of home projects to complete and hope to get as much accomplished as possible and this year, having designed and printed through Spoonflower, a grouping of my fabric designs, I am hoping to sew up some slip covers!
I love the look of linen slips on furniture - it has such a summery feel.
And now that I have designed over 106 Swedish Gustavian-inspired blue & white fabrics, I am ready to begin the make over.
Eventually I will have wallpaper printed too
and redo my dining room.
But, one thing at a time!



I've also become obsessed with designing tea towels and they can be found in my Spoonflower shop
LilyOake on Spoonflower as raw, unfinished fat quarters for you to bind off as you please, or as finished (prewashed, ironed and edges bound) in my ETSY shop, LilyOake on ETSY
I add more every day.

I design more every day!!










 I am so happy to be joining an amazing group on The Pink Pagoda with her Blue & White Monday linking party!
I wait for each one she hosts so I can see what my fellow blue & white lovers are doing!  I've also got my eye on a couple of her blue & white vases and am deciding which ones to purchase for my cottage!
Check out her online shops and indulge yourself in her art or china - its a look that will never go out of style!!
And do check out the other links to fabulous blogs...I guarantee you will be inspired by their great ideas!
