New ribbon designs: squirrels and sewing
New jacquard ribbons I designed for J Caroline arrived on my doorstep yesterday. It's always exciting (and scary) to see the finished product since I never know if the colors will turn out as expected. And flat Illustrator files always look cuter with real life texture than they do on my monitor, so I eagerly await these samples.
The squirrels in the berry colorway above are my fave so I put them on a fancy plate for their photograph.
Everybody else got dumped onto a piece of foamboard. Here are all three colorways.
Sewing ribbon warranted a few props since it was easier to find a spool of thread than recruit some squirrels to pose with their ribbon. 
These are now available at J Caroline Creative in 25-yard rolls and at Banberry Place (check pages 3 or 4) by the yard. Coming soon to other retailers!

Love the squirrels!
those are gorgeous!!
I love all!!
Delightful!
Wow! Berry is my fave too - love those colors! I love your work - you seem to capture the vibrant explosion of color that my eyes and soul love to see!
I also loved the wedding invite you showed us a few weeks ago... I would love to have a desktop wallpaper with those happy flowers swirled all around it!
I'm glad you're using your God-given talents to make our world a little brighter, happier place.
Oh, I love these ribbons. Especially the squirrels.
Is there any retailer in Germany, where I can buy them?
Ooohhh... I love 'em ALL!! I WANT some!!!

Thanks for this post about new ribbon designs. I think I like the first pictured one the best.
I think I really need to make a puppy leash with adorable squirrels on it.
I think you do.
marvelous! gorgeous! beautiful!
Oh my! The squirrels are awe-some. Cheers! I'm going to post about these on my blog soon: squirrels in wren's nest: besquirrely.com
LOVE!
I love the squirrels.
Those are excellent! Great job as always! :)
Dang cute! Nice job!
Super sweet. I could use the sewing ribbon to make a pacifier clip (thanks to your blog) for a fellow sewer about to give birth! Wouldn't that be cute??
It would be perfection.
Love it!! They are so cute!
Fantastic!
Those ribbons are great!
I LOVE these! But, I love all of the ribbon that you have designed. I need more uses for them--so I can buy some more!
I just love the squirrel ribbon!
Very nice ribbons!! the squirrels are lovely! :)
wow Jessica, these are beautiful and I love ALL the colourways :) nice job! Am going to order some soon as I get paid
I ADORE the squirrels! This sounds majorly cheesy, but my college sorority mascot was a squirrel (random) and I've had a soft spot for them ever since.
Those squirrels are so cute! I can totally see them as the trim on an oliver + s lazy days skirt!
Wait just a minute. Your favorite colorway is the one with NO ORANGE? ;)
I know. What the heck?
Wow, these are adorable. I can't even decide on a favourite I love all off them! :)
My favorite is the turquoise squirrels! SO cute!!! I need to make a new leash, and maybe some belts... perfect for me!
These are seriously so cute! I can't decide which is my favorite! :)
Oh I love these!!! Onto the Christmas list they go!
Sooo in love with them! Always love ribbons, but I love these more!
omg! these ribbons are so lovely. congrats!
I love these! Love the colors! Great job :)
Those squirrels are so cute and so timely. I absolutely love the sewing and the scissors. I don't have a current use but I would want them.
Thread may be easier than squirrels, but just think how impressed we all would've been with a squirrel! Haha :)
The squirrels are just about the cutest thing ever! What fun you must have working on these designs.
Adorable! - and every one of them deserves a fancy plate !
I just released a squirrel-themed stationery collection for Christmas, so I'm a bit obsessed with squirrels at the moment.
Great job!
LOVE THEM and NOT just because it's squirrels (and orange and teal!)! Yay!
Wonderful... I wish to get them in Germany...
Beautiful! I'm thinking ways I could use those squirrels, they are so great! I think my little one needs some as an accent on a dress...or some pants...
I was in love with the squirrels. And then I saw the sewing ones. And now there is a battle for my heart.
How utterly adorable! Fantastic job :)
We carry all of the JCaroline ribbons and we can't wait for these new ones to arrive at CityCraft!
Love the squirrels, the blue and orange is my favorite!
Jessica, these are gorgeous! The squirrel and nut one made me laugh. My hubs is a therapist and one of his colleagues used to have a tie made with squirrels and nuts. hehe.
I LOVE them. (Though, I was a bit perplexed how sewing was incorporated into the squirrels ribbon. It made much more sense as I scrolled down.) I'm extra-digging the first sewing ribbon pictured.
Oh my gosh those are so super duper cute!!!!
these are a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e!! I love the berry colored one too. very sweet indeed! I bet it feels great to have your designs out there!
All your designs are so fun and fresh. Love the sewing ribbon. Congrats on more great design + product.(And your squirrel humour made me laugh out loud!)
I want!
These are so lovely! how very exciting too.
You keep amazing me with your creativity. Congratulations on the ribbons. The squirrels and acorns are darling.
