It’s Springtime…Mexico Springtime!

Two years in the making and my popular ‘Mexico Springtime’ Otomi-inspired design has now debuted in one of its most awesomesauciest forms yet: a beautiful woven cotton jacquard throw.  

Behold, ducklings:

Ooooh, don’t you just want one to wrap yourself in?!?! Scrumptious business going on here.

I’m thrilled with how it turned out. Really beautiful quality with 80% recycled cotton…made right here in the USA. Ya really can’t go wrong with any of that. Plus it comes in six irresistible colorways (this is the turquoise version).

In its fabric form, this has been one of my most popular patterns over in my Spoonflower shop, thanks in part to this cool DIY headboard project that many people have wanted to recreate without breaking the bank or cutting into a prized original embroidered Otomi textile.

Seriously, I don’t think I’d have the heart to do that to such a beautiful handmade piece of art, so I created a large scale version of ‘Mexico Springtime’ specifically as an alternative.

There’s also a smaller scale for projects like these adorable throw pillows by happy customer Sara Miller, who kindly sent in this great photo showcasing her beautiful craftiness. Thanks, Sara!

The colorways are always expanding, thanks to my random whim and special requests. There are the classic bright colors along with some brand new softer hues, fresh outta the oven and now available (large scale at the moment; small scale coming soon). All just in time for Cinco de Mayo! 

*A special thank you to my lovely tall husband who graciously became an impromptu human easel. 😀

And with that, I bid you a happy weekend, a happy May, a happy Cinco de Mayo and a happy Mexico Springtime!
