My creative space: figs!

When I go out running I sometimes can't resist coming home with a few figs from the fig tree on one of my routes. They're such a great colour and shape. I've been playing around with designing some more fabric this week so I thought I'd have a go at making fig fabric.
I drew some of my figs:


Then I played around with them in photoshop and made this fabric design:
The background colour is meant to be like the bit around the seeds when they're ripe. I'm going to try a green version too, kind of fig skin green. I'm getting excited about ordering some swatches from Spoonflower! Now to clean up all the fruit, leaves and seedpods that are all over my drawing table!

How about you, what are you working on?
