Hello World!
I have been quiet for many months, but I have not forgotten you. As a matter of fact, you have been on my mind more than ever. I read your blogs and your comments with great interest. You see, I have been learning about pattern making, grading, technical writing, fashion illustration, cad drawing, and running a small business. Can you guess why?
Did you guess that I decided to start an independent pattern company? If you did, you are correct! At first, I wanted to wait until I had a full collection of patterns to offer, but I am too excited to delay any longer. Soon, I will release my first patterns. Here are a few sneak preview illustrations:
Hello Debra, missed you!
ReplyDeleteWhat exciting news! You definitely don't need to wait until you have a full line.
Looks great so far, I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
Thank you, Becki.
DeleteI have so many ideas :) - so little time! Like you, I love the MARFY designs and I am greatly inspired by them. I incorporate curved darts and seams in my designs and give instructions for achieving a custom fit!
These are fabulous! Good luck with your new venture.

Thank you. I am very excited :)
DeletePS - I love the little corduroy jumper you made for your grandson. The striped cotton made such nice piping. It is adorable! He must be getting BIG. What have you been sewing lately?
Fabulous! Now when can I place my order?!
ReplyDeleteSoon, Erica. :) I am doing everything myself and have a few more details regarding the on line shop to work out. Stay tuned for a blog post announcement :)
DeleteYou HAVE been missed! This is fantastic news!
ReplyDeleteAngela, Thanks for the encouragement! You look so fabulous in everything you make. I can't wait to see what you will do with one of my designs!
DeleteWhat exciting news! I hope this new venture goes well for you!
ReplyDeleteDixie, Thank you so much :)
DeletePS - I like your jacket and would LOVE to see it on you. I am overdue for a trip to SB.
How exciting!! I can't wait to see! The sketches look great.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Katie! I did the sketches myself in Adobe Illustrator. I have been learning SO MUCH about every aspect of this endeavor. One of my favorite new things has been fashion illustration. I hope to get much better at it with practice.
DeletePS - love the puppet theater! Will there be characters as well?
Congratulations Debra. These styles look great. They're really sleek and chic!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to pattern test these for you :))
Great news! Just grading a pattern makes my head spin so good for you for designing. Looking forward to the patterns.
