I always wanted to make my own fabric, now I am starting work on my own line of fabrics. Several of the prints are being sketched, and the first is going into vector :) Man this is painstaking, but I think the results will be so worth it!!

I started with a hand sketch and am tracing over it with my Illustrator tools to make some beautiful line art.

I figure I have a while until I pick a color palette. I will most likely have it available in two color palettes- the traditional blues and purples with a black background (or dark grey) and corals and greens with a cream background. Tell me what you think! I am hoping to share most of the process on here, and I totally welcome comments as I go along :). 

Now on to decorating those tail feathers! LOL

My next upcoming pattern is a totally FREE one!!! I will be slowly adding to my free pattern collection throughout this year. Most will be  simple and easy, yet practical. 

Introducing "Malia Laptop Sleeve"!
She is an adorable and stylish laptop sleeve with handles and a front slip pocket. Top has a magnetic flap closure. Nice thing about this bag is it will be totally size customizable to fit your laptop perfectly! I think it would also look great in some nice "manly" fabrics. I know how hard it is to sew bags for men! I have already had a request to have a tablet option, and I may be adding this on later.
