I became a huge fan of the artwork of Charley Harper after running across a book of his work in Anthropologie many years ago. I bought the book thinking it could be an inspiration for some appliqué designs. I never followed through with that (and wanting to avoid copyright issues), so I was thrilled when Birch Fabrics introduced the Charley Harper fabric!
I've had the fabric, and actually attempted a couple of ideas using it, but just couldn't come up with exactly what to do with it.
Yesterday I just got all the fabric out, pulled some coordinating basics and started making. It was one of those sewing days that created a huge mess, but I literally lost track of time. And here's what I came up with...
It's quite a slow process, but I'm fussy cutting the adorable motifs and framing them all to fit into several defined sizes.
And they'll all fit together into a neat little grid, kind of resembling a gallery wall.
So it's back to work this afternoon, fitting all these puzzle piece together...
And did you know that there is a recent release of some newer prints? Hoping they arrive in my mailbox today!
