Spoonflower Challanges
I have been lucky enough to place in several Spoonflower Challenges, including two Top Ten placements. Being in the Top 100 is always an honor, but being part of a great design community is really what it is all about.
According to Spoonflower’s 2025 Trend Report, block print inspired designs are in! This time-honored medium has been rejuvinated in recent years by people looking for something that feels tactile, warm, and hand-made.
