Custom fabric printing/Fabric Blog

I came across this blog while looking for info on place to do custom fabric printing:

FWIW, I just designed some fabric to be printed at Spoonflower and am not completely happy with it - the printing was fine and it washes ok but IMHO the fabric is too light weight to be "quilting cotton". But I think if I line my fabric I'll be ok. I am going to spray baste my printed fabric onto some lightweight white cotton and then cut and sew the two layers as one.



The blog was a happy find. Amongst other topics every Friday there is a summary of which online sites are having sales. Could be especially tempting for those who don't need to contend with shipping across the border to the great white north!

Cool! Thanks for a great idea. I can't count the number of times I've wished for a fabric nobody has designed yet. (Although that does not mean I could design it myself... but it's worth a try!)

I went to the other site, Fabric >I came across this blog while looking for info on place to do custom >fabric printing:

The spoonflower fabric that I got was 3.2 oz, 76x 78 threads per square inch:

The designing part is a lot of fun! I found a site that explains the basic principals...I'll look for it and post it.
