More printing...

I'm in love with my gocco printer now that I've started using it! My husband bought it me for Christmas as a surprise (isn't he fabulous?) And I was a bit scared to use it, but now there's no stopping me.
I've done some more colourways of my "Elephant Family" fabric,


and also a new design,

which I plan to use in a quilt for a friend whose baby is due in May. She doesn't know if it will be a boy or girl yet, so I thought shades of grey, linen and white would be best. Here are some of the other fabrics that I'll use. I'm looking forward to starting this quilt, though I haven't got a lot of time to complete it in, it's bound to be a complete rush!

  1. Your printed fabrics are great, and what a lucky friend to have a quilt made fom it!
    Still not sure what a gocco printer is-could you message me back very interested in the technique!

  3. do you have a hand gocco printer? I've tried printing with my regular gocco onto fabric and it gets a bit messy. I've been wanting to print onto some fabrics for a while but got put off by my initial attempt!
