Vintage Sportswear Challenge

Sportswear – well, not really my thing being one of the least sporty people I know. But – vintage sportswear – well that brings to mind all kinds of cool stuff. The challenge brief at Spoonflower specifies 70s/80s/90s as vintage. Ok. Well I can’t get my head around 80s/90s, too close to home – but 70s? That I can get into. Still though, it is a stretch. After many many ideas that went south I came up with a cross between blaze orange camouflage and a floral scene. I give you, Camo Mums, complete with a selection of plaid and striped companions.
