Mid-Year newcomers 2026!


 

Celebrating Summer 2026 with the newest additions in my Spoonflower shop! 

These days I am creating some large scale, fun, bold, vibrant prints and patterns with a Vintage era simplicity. Muted pastels, simple graphic flowers and stripes, hearts and geometrics.

You can find all these new prints in my Spoonflower shop as fabrics, wallpapers and home decor products.

Scale/colour requests and licensing enquiries are welcome.

Cook With Love-kitchen collection




Hello dear friends!

                 Recently (a week ago) I joined Lilla Rogers ecourse- MATS-A. Should I say that the course is simple wonderful? Or do you want to hear that Lila is a superb teacher??? Ahaa! Yes, you guessed right. MATS-A is a super-duper ecourse, and Lila Rogers is the kind of teacher we all want in our lives if we want to achieve something more that just great!

        The ecourse (MATS-A/Make Art That Sells-part A) is packed with Lila's great knowledge-- lots of videos and PDF's to read & download, and lovely assignments to do.

      I have completed my first week- Bolt Fabric Market.

       My assignment was to create a print for the bolt fabric market. The brief that Lila gave was to create a 'VINTAGE KITCHEN THEME', Pyrex, macaroni/pasta, herbs, etc. The colours should be no more that 10, with a dark background.

      I loved to draw something that I had never tried before- food and kitchen utensils... But, it was such a fun to draw the jars, casseroles, salt and pepper shakers, spoons and forks etc. I took the liberty to add some vintage patterns too...




   I love this 'vintage kitchen collection' in bright yet vintage-y colours... I hope you love it too!

See you soon...

vintage --- revisited

 
        Hi,

                   
              This Monsoon , decorate your homes with bright and beautiful pink lotuses that dates back to 1970 , the time when I wasn't even thought of in this world ...!!!





        Once again , I bring before you another motif from my mom's collection ...
  
        This is a patchwork design , done in checks , dotted , or simply solid coloured clothes . Starting with an outline stitch on the traced pattern and then leaving the seams ( for folding inside ) , cut the extra cloth , then patch it on the main cloth , at the desired ( and already planned and marked places ) , in buttonhole / carpet stitches ... Well , this was ( and is ) the way beautiful patchworks were made then , and are made today , too ...






        This can be done on cushions ...






            Patch it , embroider it , stencil it or paint it on fabrics or on any other surface ...







          Rotate the design as desired --- diamond , square , inside out ... ( whatever suits your eyes )







         Repeats are beautiful too ...Stencil it , repeating it to give an over-all print look ...









          The above aqua coloured print will give any wall a new and fresh look ...






          


              Heavenly white with pinks .... a print for fashion fabrics and for paper ...






                                       


          And last is an all-over lotus pattern with some swirls ...



                               Have a nice time with these fresh lotus patterns .

            Stay tuned to see what next week has in store for you all . More of vintage collection --- revisited and remixed --- to give a contemporary look . I'll try to dig out more patterns and motifs from my mom or from my grand-mom's '' SUPER - TREASURE -  TRUNK '' ...
