Drawing and fabric

By on September 28, 2015

I am part of several Facebook groups that deal with sewing and fabric.  On one of the fabric groups, there are ladies that order fabric from manufacturers in China.  I thought I would give it a shot, since Spoonflower cannot print a true black on their knit fabrics.  It will probably end up being about […]
