<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A little while ago I put together a presentation to submit to a contest held by a company that made some pretty nifty bespoke home decor items; retro foot stools, lamp shades, pillows, fabric and wallpaper. It was an open call to license designs by new designers and pretty much my dream gig! Unfortunately, after all the submissions were in, but before announcing a winner, the disappointing news came that the company decided to call it quits. No matter, there will always more opportunities in the future, and in the meantime, here's some of my stuff for that project...</span><br />

My pattern, Dottie Blooms, will be printed on <a href="https://www.surfacepatternprint.com/" target="_blank">SPP</a>'s cotton calico fabric, and since I've already uploaded my design, it's just a matter of time before I have it in my hands!

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Hi Everyone.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">So sorry for my long absence. Despite
being busy and connected in other areas of my life, and maybe because I've yet
to get the hang of any kind of rhythm or content balance here, I've had a
difficult time approaching my blog since my last post.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">As it happens, 2016 was a year of
tremendous loss and transition for me and my family. My dad spent February to
May in the hospital where he passed, just a few weeks shy of his 80th birthday.
Admittedly, I have the desire to share details of the story but I'm also at
odds with what is appropriate to the occasion. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Maybe I should just say that my dad
fought illness and complications due to illness for the better part of 30
years. With my mom at the helm, it brought us all closer together, and my dad
not only survived but thrived between each crisis. He was heroic. He never
complained. And he was our rock and safe haven always. It's a tough pill to
swallow that he's no longer here and the world surely seems a little less bright.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">No doubt, as many of you may recognize
the feeling after losing someone you love, the months after his passing felt
surreal. How can the sun still rise and set every day like nothing happened?
But the world does march on and we're left trying to figure out how the pieces
fit back together, knowing some of the original ones will remain missing. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">In retrospect, I do still have some positives
to take away from last year. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">I tried so many
times to post before now, never managing anything that sounded normal to my ear.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> They'll be for future posts. In January I wanted
to send you all greetings for the New Year, but I just wasn't ready yet to let
go of the last one. It felt like letting go of my dad all over again. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">But the time has come. If you've read
this through, thank you so much for listening. I wish you a beautiful 2017, a
year that's happy, healthy and full of all the things success looks like to
you.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Dad, if you can hear me somehow, I'm
dedicating this year to you. You deserved so much better than you got. Thank
you for teaching me to cherish the little things, and thank you for making me
the luckiest girl on the planet. Honestly. Best dad ever.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hi again!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This must be a record number of posts in a short period of time! I guess you can tell life feels exciting. Late yesterday afternoon, quite by chance, I happened upon another feature on the <a href="https://makeitindesign.com/blog/2016/01/07/pattern-design-showcase-part-1-module-1-september-2015-class/" target="_blank">Make It In Design Blog</a>, my Twinkle pattern! It was the first of 4 showcases of patterns created by alumni of the module 1 taken September 2015, and there's plenty to see other than just mine. In fact, it's a great idea to keep popping back there for the galleries to come, so much talent and so many fun designs to check out!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks for sharing in my experiences!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hey everyone!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />Seems I'm ever apologizing for the long delays between posts! As usual, it's been busy, but the new year is almost upon us and I just needed to reach out 1 more time. For me, 2015 was both challenging and wonderful. Most importantly, it felt like a breakthrough year. I discovered <a href="http://www.rachaeltaylordesigns.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rachael Taylor</a> and <a href="http://dowhatyouloveforlife.com/" target="_blank">Beth kempton</a>'s</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Surface Pattern Design courses online and a whole new world opened up. After participating in their </span><a href="http://makeitindesign.com/design-school/" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Make It In Design</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> summer school, I decided to invest in the first</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> 3 modules and I haven't looked back! In October I completed module 1 and I can honestly say it was the best decision I've ever made. My work has improved dramatically, my confidence has grown, and I'm appreciating the whole design process in a way I never have before. I'm feeling the joy! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />So, a day away from ringing in 2016, I'm feeling super positive and hopeful about what's to come. Here's sending those good vibrations out into the universe and wishing you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All my best,</span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So sorry it's been so long since I've posted! To explain, I've been very busy creating designs for a new personal portfolio and it's definitely a ton of work! I admit I go between feeling like I may never be done and feeling so excited I'm busting at the seams! I've also decided it's the perfect moment to hone my skills further and learn as much as I can of what's going on out there in the pattern design world. To that end, I've been challenging myself with courses from an awesome site called <a href="https://www.skillshare.com/" target="_blank">Skillshare</a> (go, go, go check it out!), and doing the <a href="http://makeitindesign.com/" target="_blank">Make It In Design</a> Summer School</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. The summer school creative briefs are pretty outside my usual realm but I'm toasting my glass of Sangria to leaping outside my comfort zone! Here's some of what I've done...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext;">So hard to believe how fast the time
is flying by and before we know it, the holidays will be here. Yikes! Well, to
perhaps help you get into the spirit of the season, I’m very excited to share
with you today the awesome creations of Gail Gallagher of Gailigami @</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/Gailigami"><span lang="EN-US">https://www.etsy.com/shop/Gailigami</span></a><span lang="EN-US"> and </span><a href="http://gailigami.weebly.com/"><span lang="EN-US">http://gailigami.weebly.com</span></a><span lang="EN-US">. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext;">By
happy chance through my Etsy shop, I had the good fortune of “meeting” Gail,
who’s the first person I’ve come across to create origami sculptures from
digital paper. I admit I found that to be incredibly novel and intriguing, and
I just really wanted to know more. I’m thrilled to offer you here a bit of insight
into Gail’s craft, her process, and her fabulous creations!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext;">G- I had always wanted to do
something creative with my hands. My father did woodworking and model
ship building. My husband also does woodworking</span><span style="color: windowtext;">.
About a year and a half ago, I had been looking for a wreath for my home and
came across one on Etsy. I was about to order it, but then wondered if I could
make one myself. I started searching the internet and found instructions, and
the rest is history.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="Body" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">G-With the help of a lot of
instructional diagrams on different websites and many YouTube videos, I started
doing origami as a way to relax. As I began showing my wreaths to
friends, I found that they really seemed to like them. I started getting
requests to make personalized ones as gifts and for holidays. That led me
to opening an Etsy shop.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">G-</span>I have made traditional Origami
animals; cranes, dogs, bats, fish, etc. I have the different kinds of wreaths
as in my shop and I have also made a few “sculptures” using the basic wreaths,
but in smaller sizes. I make paper lucky stars which I put into glass jars, as
well as paper boxes and business card/cell phone holders. As for inspiration, I
get a lot of feedback from customers for customization of the wreaths. My boss
asked me to make one for her son’s girlfriend’s birthday using a picture of her
son and their dog. I have donated a pet themed wreath to a local animal
shelter. I made a customized one for my hairdresser, and another using my
dentist’s logo and one of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/ToutAimee" target="_blank">ToutAimée</a>’s patterns for his office.<b><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Seems like ages since my last post (perhaps because it's been ages?!). Well I'm back and very excited to introduce some new textured papers I've just listed at the shop. I've been meaning to start adding some for a while and I'm glad to have finally begun. There's definitely more on the way but if you're looking for something in particular, feel free to offer suggestions. I'll see what I can do.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Happy Tuesday everyone!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today is the start of our latest <a href="http://www.etsydigitaldesigners.com/" target="_blank">Digital Designers</a> Facebook Hop Event with a summer picnic theme. Above is my Freebie contribution which you can pick up <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ToutAimee/app_246431335442257" target="_blank">Here</a>. There are 32 participating designers in all and every one has offered something different and equally fabulous.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My confession... admittedly, I loved the summer palette so much, I felt compelled to add a bunch of new design groups to my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ToutAimee" target="_blank">Etsy</a> shop in the same colors. I hope these inspire your own creations!</span><br />
