Spoonflower Giveaway

Once in a while, an opportunity arises to give your readers something fantastic. This is one of those.
While I've been sew busy around here lately, I've also spent a ridiculous amount of time looking at all the beautiful fabric designs on Spoonflower. And by beautiful, I mean geeky, and by designs, I mean TARDISes.  Because that's how I roll.  
In case you aren't familiar just yet, Spoonflower is an on demand fabric printing company that lets you design, buy, and sell fabric designs that perfectly fit what you want, opening up the artisan's world of fabric possibilities immeasurably.
Spoonflower has a plethora of different fabrics on which they can print.


You can pick sizes from a 5x5" test swatch, fat quarters, yards, and many many yards.

You can read about their design guidelines here.  
They even have a color chart so you can design in colors that print best with their printing process.


I love this site and spend too much time drooling over the possibilities.  You can check out their flickr pool to see what people have done with their fabric. 


Would you like to try out some of that creative fabricy goodness?  Well, if you would, you'll be happy to know that Spoonflower has deigned to give one lucky Paisley & Pretties reader a $50 gift certificate to use on their site!

How to enter-
Mandatory Entry-
Sign up for a Spoonflower account and comment below with your Spoonflower username.  

Extra Entry options-
Leave a comment with a link to your favorite fabric design.
Upload your own design and comment with the link.
Make a purchase from Spoonflower of any amount during the contest. Leave a comment letting us know what you ordered. (If you win, you need to show proof of the transaction of some sort, email, screenshot, something.)

Contest will run through Midnight on July 30th 2011.  Winner will be selected via Random.org. Winner will be contacted via email and have 48 hours to respond.  If winner does not respond, a second winner will be chosen via some bizarre method that amuses me.

Why are you still reading this, shouldn't you be signing up for a Spoonflower account?

Disclaimer- I am not being compensated in any manner for this post.  I have not received any product or other compensatory item.  Have a nice day.

"The Raven" is my favorite Poe thome...I adore this fabric. Wouldn't it look great adorning a lampshade on a vintage lamp?
