Creativebug & Spoonflower Offer a New Video Series on How to Design Fabric with Expert Designers
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) March 13, 2015 -- The perfect print, the perfect color, the perfect fabric for home, quilt or clothing. Now everyone can make it a reality with Creativebug’s Fabric Design Series, a step-by-step series of video classes.
Creativebug (http://www.creativebug.com/), the leading to source for online arts and crafts video classes, has partnered with Spoonflower (http://www.spoonflower.com/welcome), a leader in custom fabric printing, and creative rock stars Denyse Schmidt, Heather Ross and Lizzy House, in this comprehensive and refreshingly straightforward series. Each artist shares her own design process – from inspiration to creating repeating designs, working with color and much more. Plus, Spoonflower and industry experts share insight and candid advice on breaking into retail fabric design.
The five-week course begins with understanding fabric design and repeats, then goes into detail about the process of designing repeats both by hand and digitally. Design enthusiasts then dive further into color theory and developing a palette for their designs, with loads of tips and advice from the designers and industry experts along the way. They will also get the chance to hear directly from each designer through weekly live chats.
Plus, the first 500 to register using the promo code “Spoonflower” will get a two-week free trial to Creativebug.com and credit for a free fat quarter of fabric from Spoonflower.
“We’ve watched as fabric design has become more mainstream than ever, with more and more people wanting to understand the basics of designing patterns. It’s an exciting and creative area – and these three designers have decades of experience between them. Anyone can learn from this series, whether you aspire to become a fabric designer or just want to pick up snippets of inspiration and ideas from expert designers,” says Kelly Wilkinson, VP of Editorial for Creativebug.
“We’re thrilled to work with Creativebug on the Fabric Design Series.
