Hawthorne threads is an online fabric shop that also prints many lines of their own fabrics. I have been very happy with their fabrics and some really cute lines. What I also like is that the fabric comes printed straight and you have many fabric (fiber) choices. Many color choices too. (no affiliation, just happy customer). I am working on a baby quilt right now and most of the fabrics are theirs.

Unfortunately my pic doesn't show the vibrant colors. Sorry to the fabric store. I also should point out that you can't submit your own pics for fabric printing.

Oh, fun! I want to do that too. My own, personal collection of fabrics to make my own quilt. Do you also offer your designs to others on Spoonflower? If so, have you made any money doing that?

I designed myself some quilt labels and put them up on Spoonflower (you can make things private so they don't show up for anybody else). I designed them so 8 would fit on an 8x8 "sample", which is pretty inexpensive to order.

They turned out great, I'm just a Bad Quilter and never label my quilts, even after designing my own personal custom set. I can't tell you how they wear, because they're still brand-new and unused, but the color came out just how I expected it to, the (cotton) fabric has a good hand to it, and my small text lines printed out nice and sharp.

Hey all, I posted a pic of the collaboration DH and I did using fabric we had printed by Spoonflower. It's in the pictures forum under thread titled landscape collaborative quilt. It will give you an idea of the quality of the printing done by Spoonflower.

My daughter's friend bought Spoonflower fabric from an Etsy shop that I made a crib sheet with. It was a very black Harry Potter theme fabric. I found it stiff, though I washed it before sewing it. I think it was because the fabric was almost all black with only a little white for the design. Black is such a hard color to print so I don't blame Spoonflower. It is something to think about if you ask them to print something tough.
