In the jungle

I'm revisiting this jungle collection I designed for Makower UK a while ago. It's designed in a naive style and includes hippos, giraffes and elephants.


The main design comes in two colour palettes and this one is on a teal background. The cute animals are surrounded by foliage and they peer through the leaves in a cheeky manner.


Co-ordinates for this collection include an allover elephant design, a tiny scattered elephants design and a lovely bold star print which is great for using as lining fabric or quilt edging.


This collection also includes a panel. The panel is called a cheater quilt and can be made to look like a pieced quilt. It's great for using as a cot quilt or alternatively, each individual square can be cut out and made into cushion covers etc.


The montage design is a great allover design and uses a loose patchwork effect.


Rainbows, hearts and stripes are also a cute addition to the collection.


The main design looks lovely and fresh on this white background.


The pink elephants are a bright addition as well as the multi coloured stars on a cream background.


The montage design looks vibrant with the addition of hot pink.


Pretty rainbows and hearts, perfect for a little girl's bedroom.

Club Tropicana

Summer is well and truly here and I've recently been working on some summer designs to get me in the mood. I've also been creating some fun items for my store. I'm so inspired by the tropical references that are out there at the mo - from flamingos and pineapples to toucans and tropical leaves. The colour palette of the design reference below is nice and fresh. I love the peach and mint combination with a touch of acid green to funk it up.


And if you're looking for something a bit brighter, the colour palette below delivers! I love the funky combinations of purple and pink with orange and yellow thrown in.


Cheeky Leopard has been busy creating some fun summer items and my favourite one at the mo is this fab pineapple cosmetic bag in shades of yellow and turquoise.


The bag has a turquoise gingham lining and I decided to add a bright yellow zipper as a contrasting pop of colour. This is a great size for carrying smaller items in your travel bag.


For more pineapples you can find this little selection in my store.


The most recent item to be added to my store is this fun flamingo glasses case. It has been printed onto a beige background which makes it slightly more sophisticated! The pink and white polka dot lining ties in with the pink of the flamingos.


Toucans are still a popular tropical reference and these little guys are so sweet. The toucan coin purse is big enough for small change, notes and credit cards and has a black and white spotty lining.


The toucan tissue holder is a fun way to carry tissues for this summer sniffles.
