My first fabric design!

I wanted to start with a simple pattern to see the quality of Spoonflower's printing and fabrics. I really like the linen cotton canvas!! Nice and clean looking. My cartoon of my dog Finn looks crisp and clear!
Check it out!!

Mackerilla's Studio is moving!!! :)

Moving my studio back into my house this mid February. After 6 years on the Westside by Kelly's Bakery, our lease is now at it's end. All a very good thing for me! I am excited to be able to design and create new bag designs to add to my patterns for sale. My goal is to add 5 more patterns to sell to my current collection. All doing very well in sales.
It is time for my business to change from being more of a "seamstress" with custom orders to more of a "Designer" which is what I originally started out as.

Also I am excited to be starting to design my own fabric!!!! I will be selling my fabric designs on my website. Hopefully by this summer I will have a few to start with!!!

I will still be selling my handbags so don't worry!! On my website, on my ETSY page and in local shops!! See my website for the store nearest you! You can also still contact me for custom work!

2010 is going to be great year!!!

Stitches West Expo coming up next! End of February at the Santa Clara Convention Center. This is going to be my 3rd year being a vendor at the show. In Booth number 1032.
