Gelli® Print to Fabric Design


I just got these fabulous cotton fat quarters through the post from fabric printing company Spoonflower. It's a great service where you can upload your own designs to be printed onto a range of fabrics. These designs started life as a Gelli® print on paper.


Now of course you can mono-print directly onto fabric but paper often gives a more crisp print and what about that amazing print you did on paper and then wished you'd done on fabric? How about the one where the colours were not quite right? Perhaps you want it bigger or smaller? Maybe you want several pieces?

To get around these problems scan your print on paper; use the highest resolution your scanner can do and then it's easier to change the size and scale. You can see I also changed up the colours in PhotoShop. Upload it to the Spoonflower website and order as much fabric as you like!

If you would like to buy these fabric fat quarters you can order at my Spoonflower shop.
