Llamas It's time to travel to the South American Andes mountains to show your llama love! Give a go at creating a lovable llama themed design. Deadline for entry is Tuesday, June 30th, 2015.

I really tried to push myself to make loads of different blanket patterns, and giving them a slight ikat treatment as well as the linen texture. The only drawback is that since I've done all this fine detail, it does tend to get swallowed up in Spoonflower's fabric views. Anyway here are my llamas: Fancy Llama Herd Fancy Llama Herd Fancy Llama Herd Fancy Llama Herd Fancy Llama Herd

Here are what the designs look like; my camera seems to get confused by too much blue in one and too much red in the other. None of the pics look quite right color-wise!
