How I Design

Finger Paint

               Sometimes I don’t know what to design.  I sit and wonder, what should I draw next?  How am I going to arrange pieces this time?  What look am I trying to get?

                Then, all of a sudden, an image will pop into my head and I’m off and running.  The image can be something as simple as a shape to experiment with.  Or the way I need to work around a fabric’s particular design.  Sometimes I’ll suddenly know how to use and arrange the amount and size of fabric I have on hand.

                With any of these scenarios, a completely new design can come to mind.   And they can happen at any time.  That’s what keeps things exciting.
