Very Peri:
It just so happens to be a Bird of Paradise color!
And, ever since I moved my computer desk to be near a window, I can see some blooming as I type!
I'm in the process of working up a Bird of Paradise repeat. I'll post it here when I finish it.
Meanwhile, I'm refreshing artwork with Very Peri in the mix:
I encountered this fabric last week at the Textile Arts LA textile swap:
It was very familiar, because of this video:
Which was part of an online collaboration I had with Kristine last year (see it here).

I was considering this concept as a possible print for girl's panties, maybe with ladybugs instead of bees, but had second thoughts -- do young girls want bugs on their underwear? |
Finally!
I redrew the Jodie. She required it!

Remember the Stitching the World project?
I thought I was all set with the base map digital art to get it printed.
I had waited for a good sale on Redbubble.
I wrestled with uploading the map (hit a file size road block).
Ordered.
It arrived in the mail.
And
I thought about this guy and his antimender proclivities:

| the current Big Blanket Mend It's taking forever. Thanks, Mr Lou. |
White background + hairy cat = bad embroidery project math!
Back to the (virtual) drawing board!
Dramatic!
Hoping it arrives in time to work on during the Textile Arts LA materials swap on July 10.
There's plenty of time to add your voice to the project. I have no end date yet.
Why not both?

Did I mention that this is my next project?
Most of the 2019 A-Z Fluevogs didn't make it onto the Print on Demand sites.
I am now rectifying that.
Aimee, the first of the series, comes in tons of colorways.
I did a poll in a Fluevog Facebook group to determine which combo to do first.
The original sketches for 2019 were one-liners, meaning I didn't lift the marker from the page as I drew.
They have a more naive quality, which is one reason I chose to do the tees with a smaller scatter design. One giant Aimee graphic looked a bit scary!
Here they are! All the 2021 repeats!

| if it looks like a spiral notebook, it's not yet on Spoonflower I also have to order a strike-off swatch before yardage can be purchased |
 |
| black wasn't working, did not feel like recoloring all the towels, I'll try the white colorway |

| cute! |
There were design issues with the Adele socks on Redbubble:

Here they are, all 26!
Next up? Getting all the 2021 repeat art uploaded for garments, home goods, and stationary.
Another successful year of A-Z-ing completed. Woohoo!
24/26 completed the A-Z Scavenger Hunt
