A Stunning Display Of Bipartisanship

In the forum of our latest fabric contest, we saw a stunning display of bipartisanship this week. Donkeys and elephants lay down together and, rather than competing to one-up one another, concentrated on being fabulous. What do our results forecast for the US elections in November? Absolutely nothing. But nevertheless, we couldn't be more pleased to announce that the winner of our donkey & elephant fabric contest is "Left and Right," by New York designer (and first-time winner) Ottomanbrim. 

The final votes were:

1. 482 votes for left and right by ottomanbrim
