Alphabet Fabric
Spoonflower Fabric of the Week Contest: April 20, 2011
Congratulations to Jennifer Wambach of JennArtDesigns, whose Space Alphabet (very sweetly dedicated to her husband, who "wants to be an astronaut when he grows up") becomes our Fabric Of the Week winner. The alphabet-themed contest had a large field of entries, but looking through the top ten this week is especially fun. There are some terrific fabrics. You may remember that this is Jennifer's second FOW win: her Sunflowers fabric won the pointillism contest. Read more about More Fabrics For Geeks: JennartDesigns' Space Alphabet.
