Have you heard of Spoonflower? It is a site that allows you to design your own fabric.

I have been meaning to try it since I first heard about it in 2008, but kept putting it off. Well, no longer! Today is Free Fabric Swatch Day on Spoonflower, which means you can design your own fabric and have an 8-inch sample of it mailed to you for free! wow!

If you want to get your free sample, your order must be placed by 12 noon EST tomorrow (August 19th).

I quickly put together the Ernie fabric you see above and ordered a free swatch. I can’t wait to see it in person! If it turns out ok, I can make it available for public sale. Stay tuned!
