Key Talking Points
  • Carrie is another lovely artist who took a leap of faith to leave a stable job to create something of her own.
  • She discovered Spoonflower as a result of wanting material to cover her chairs! She loved the quality!
  • She was buyer and became a contributor.
  • Spoonflower is a great place to get your patterns seen and get found through the challenges.
  • To help get found, research your tags to see what is doing well and why - all this is available on spoonflower. Evaluate what tag is selling.
  • Spoonflower is how Peppermint Magazine found Carrie.
  • The key is to create the work you want to create and use the same work to create different colorways.
  • Learned how to master Photoshop and keyboard shortcuts to speed up the process.
    • Carrie's class available on skillshare is fantastic to learn how to create a half-draw pattern in 15 minutes. It didn't start off that quickly, experience and looking for shortcuts is key to speed.
  • Ordering proofs from spoonflower is a must to ensure your patterns are working seamlessly. This ensures integrity for the customer.
  • To help keep down the cost for the proofs, Carrie will wait until she has 42 designs and then will create a cheater quilt/patchwork print.
    • She'll use the patchwork quilt as gift wrap! What a great idea!
  • Raspberry Creek is another fabric print-on-demand site.
  • Benjamin Moore and Pantone have colors of the year to help you find the colorways for trends.
