One of my favorite websites to browse is Spoonflower.com. It is a collection of custom-designed fabrics in just about every theme you can imagine. The site has a weekly contest challenging artists to come up with patterns centered around a chosen theme. I am in no way an artist, but I love to see what creative people are able to do when told to make a fabric pattern around themes like breakfast, time travel, circuses and sharks.
On Thursday, August 18th beginning at Noon through Noon on Friday, August 19th you can get a free swatch of any fabric in the Spoonflower collection. Can't find anything that you like? Feel free to upload your own design and get a swatch of that.
Since there isn't much that you can do with an 8"x8" piece of fabric, I went searching for a deal - and found one! You can order a Mini-Robot Doll which fits perfectly in the swatch. Just follow the included instructions and you can make your own doll. You even get to pick your choice of colors. This will make a great rainy day project for my little artist!
