2021 Update

WHAT. A. YEAR.

I’m not a big blogger but I do write in a journal everyday just to clear my head. But I figure since I will likely never look at that journal once it’s full, I will make an entry here.

We are healthy. Our family made it through the pandemic unscathed so far and most of us are vaccinated now. But not everyone I know is out of the woods and I am sending them love & light today. The kids are back in school full time (fingers crossed it stays) so we are getting back to a rhythm we all love.

On the career front, I joined with White Buffalo Studio as a designer in Oct 2020 and as a Creative Assistant in Jan 2021. Leslie has been an amazing mentor and I’m convinced there are 3 of her!

I’m looking forward to what the year brings and have a few goals in mind.

Please reach out if you think we would be a great fit and let’s make something beautiful together!

2020 Pattern Update

Femi Ford Bedding

If you know me, you know I’m a girl of few words, which is why I live on Instagram. But my website needed a major refresh so here I am…renewing my commitment to my love of pattern! I have a goal of getting an iPad Pro with Procreate, so I’m hoping this refresh helps motivate myself and buyers!

Spoonflower has made navigating my shop a little easier and it seems they consolidated Roostery products within their own site. I’m really excited about the new large format mockup photos I found. It really helps solidify your direction when you see the patterns on product.

Barring any new crises, I will post new patterns to both Spoonflower and Patternbank and sign with a new Rep. I’m setting a schedule to recolor some old work and forge ahead with the new. Stay tuned and stay safe friends!
