A New Fabric Designer?

My oldest granddaughter was here visiting the other day and while she was here she spent some time doodling with markers.  As she was working I commented that her design would make a pretty fabric.  It was then that the lightbulb went on and I ran to my sewing room for a sheet of printable fabric.  Within minutes I had printed a priceless piece of one of a kind fabric!  I may be biased, but I think Miss One could make a career as a fabric designer!

You could order a yard or so of that fabric from Spoonflower.com and make her a pillowcase with her very own design! How awesome!

I second the spoonflower idea. Order enough to make her a bag or garment out of it so she can tell people she designed the fabric. She really is talented!
