I got an awesome bit of mail yesterday. My first batch of test swatches from Spoonflower arrived! I ordered tests of all the designs I have uploaded. I changed some of the background colors on the Lions, Tigers, and Bears, which I think was a good move. I approved three out of four of the prints for sale, so not too bad on the color from design to print. These are the three I approved:
My favorite one so far is the Lions, Tigers, and Bears Big Circles, although the other two printed really well also. The fabric that I didn't approve for sale is the Fireworks Show:
The background didn't come out as dark as I wanted, and the pink isn't bright enough either. All the other colors look good, so I think in the future I will just have to be more careful with the reds. Here's what the design looks like on Spoonflower:
Fireworks Show. I ordered one last item in this batch, which I hope will help me avoid future color problems. If you love color, prepare yourself for this.
Shabam! A full yard of color swatches with the RGB codes for the computer! I am totally geeking out over this. As you may remember, I got the
Spoonflower Color Guide, which has a few colors, but the
Color Map is so much better, even though it costs about sixteen times more to get. I am so excited to get cranking out more designs, I can hardly take it! It's so amazing to see your own designs in print.
