Hummingbird Fabrics Arrive!!

I just love hummingbirds and have painted many over the years.  
The color and their size is just so sweet to place in my nature paintings. 
 The hummingbird couple above was taken from an original painting that was just
 two inches by two inches.
 It is a challenge to create such detail in such a small space...however the fabric it created below is amazing! The red is only from the male hummingbirds throat but look how it became the overall color with the lilac background.

Hummingbird Couple

The Hummingbird below is a "Pullout" from the original painting I created called "Todd Lake".
I mirrored the pullout to create the " Fat Quarter" of fabric. You can order the fabric in the following ways: Swatch, Fat Quarter, Yard or Seam. The "Todd Lake" entire piece and all the other "Pullouts" can be seen in the "Jennifer Lake Fabric Store" located in the upper right of the BLOG.

"Hummingbird Pullout" from Todd Lake

The Hummingbird image below is of a "Pullout" from the original painting called "Against All Odds".
The image is of a Calliope male hummingbird taking nectar from a wild Lark Spur Flower.
 I would use this piece with fabric color of the flowers to really make it all pop.
I am going to order this fabric to make some summer napkins for my picnic basket.

Calliope Male Hummingbird

Below is the female Calliope Hummingbird.  The image is also a "Pullout" from the same original painting called "Against All Odds".
The fabric below it shows the yardage view.  The grass detail just provides an amazing design and detail.

Fabrics will keep posting all week in the NEW FABRIC STORE.  I hope you will enjoy viewing them all!
Those of you who have already purchased fabric please send me photos of what you create!!
I cannot wait to see them!!
Have a Wonderful Day!
Your Artist Friend,
Jennifer Lake
