Home on the Saguaro, my design for Spoonflower’s “Home on the Range” challenge, took 17th place. When I originally read the prompt for this challenge I was stuck on cowboy hats and horses but when I was ready to work on my entry, I read through the prompt again and the word saguaro jumped out at me. A saguaro is that tall desert cactus with many upward reaching arms. I’ve never seen one in person but from the photos I’ve seen they look absolutely magical, so I decided that the subject of my design would be saguaro cacti and the little critters that live in them. Since this pattern placed top 60th, it was automatically made available for sale as fabric and wallpaper so it can be purchased in my Spoonflower shop. I’ve created some fun coordinates to go with this design, swatches have been ordered and they’ll be available by the 2nd week of May.
I drew the original artwork for this pattern with pen and ink.
Home on the Saguaro is also available on a variety of products in my Redbubble Shop.
