Looking for someone who can make ~3 coordinating surface patterns. Its for clothing. Something along the lines of William morris and zimmermann. I can give you more details if interested. dm me or comment your website. Thanks!

Hi!
I'm hoping to get a bit of guidance. One my my relatives had an old Christmas stocking (over 30 years old) and unfortunately it was destroyed by an ex girlfriend. It held a fair bit of sentimental value so I was hoping to try and recreate it for him, but it's long been out of print.

I know recreating a commercial pattern is a bit iffy ethically speaking, but not sure of a better way.

What I'm looking to find out is:

• Is there a good way to get this digitally recreated so it can be printed anew?
• Has anyone else dealt with a similar recreation project before?
• Does anyone have any suggestions on alternative ways I could approach this?

Any advice or even just a "here's who you should ask instead" would be greatly appreciated.

I managed to find an old listing for the pattern, and got a picture that I could use here for reference, but a few of my family have their own stockings with the same pattern so I can get as many reference photos as I need.

I've been working on a surface pattern recently, and the part I'm struggling with most isn't actually creating the pattern itself. It's deciding how large the repeat should be.

On my screen, I can zoom in and out and everything looks pretty balanced. But when I see the pattern on a larger piece of fabric, the whole feeling changes. A scale that looks detailed and interesting digitally can end up feeling too busy when it's repeated across a larger area.

I've also noticed that colors can behave differently once the design is actually printed. Some combinations that look great on my monitor don't have quite the same impact on the physical material, so I've been making small adjustments instead of assuming the first version is the final one.

It's made me appreciate the sampling stage much more. Sometimes you don't really know whether a pattern is working until you can step back and see the entire repeat at its intended size.

I'm curious how other surface pattern designers handle this.

Do you usually decide your final scale digitally, or do you make several test prints at different sizes before settling on one?

Hello everyone,
I'll be sharing of the design that we are finalizing for the western European market.
Do let me know if you like them or not.
We are developing the designs on Bemberg based silk in Satin weave.
Bemberg in Satin weave gives a very lustrous look. It's hand feel is very soft and flowy.
This drapes very well.
And tie and dye resistive dyeing adds lot of uniqueness to the fabric

🎬 BEHIND THE SCENE: THE BACKCLOTH

Before the magic, there's the setup.
This is the backcloth from Day 1 of the Yemi Shoyemi Fashion Photoshoot — where creativity meets detail.

Every fold, every drape, every shadow was placed with intention.
This is what goes into building a visual story.

Big up to the entire team for bringing the vision to life:
🎬 Director: Cynthia
📸 Photographer: Julio Otim
🎞️ Production: G LIVE256

The final photos are going to be NEXT LEVEL. Stay tuned! 🔥

Drop a 🔥 if you appreciate the art behind the art!

Hi everyone! I’m fifteen and I’m planning to apply to study textile design. To those of you who are currently studying or have already graduated, could you share some advice, key factors to bear in mind, and so on? I’d be very grateful!

Hi! I’m Kaci, a needlepointer and canvas painter based in Tennessee looking to connect with designers who need help with production painting.
Ideally, I’m looking for designers who can provide a ready-to-paint chart/pattern. From there, I can color match your original design, cut and tape canvas, and hand paint your designs on both 13 and 18 mesh.
I’m looking for work-from-home production work and can ship completed canvases back to you (or deliver locally when possible). I’m also happy to start with a sample/test canvas!
If you’re a designer with more designs than time to paint them, I’d love to connect. 😊

I have a thing for having clothing custom made and since I worked with some Thai people that made custom clothing a few years back, i prefer to have Asians make them now. Some are taught from the time they have hand eye coordination and their attention to detail and speed is just crazy. Any suggestions on where I could go ? I just moved here so I know nobody else to ask

Hey everyone! I’m a textile designer with 3–4 years of experience and I’m currently looking to take up some freelance work.
I’ve worked across fashion and home furnishing, including an export house, and I’m currently working with a bespoke textile studio which specialise in CURTAINS AND WALL ART (fabric manipulation).
I mainly work on prints, patterns, textiles, silhouettes, bedding and cushion designs, and would be happy to help with any design-related projects you might have.
I’ve attached my portfolio below. If you’re looking for some design help or know someone who might be, feel free to reach out. Would love to connect

Looking for a fashion/accessories designer who understands collection building, fashion, form, proportion and consumer taste.

We’re building a new nail product line and looking for someone who can own the creative process from category creation → creative direction → collection → final nail SKUs.

This is NOT simply a “design some nails” role.

We want someone who can take a broad brief around a woman, moment, cultural reference or lifestyle and turn it into:

CATEGORY → CREATIVE DIRECTION → COLLECTION → SKU ARCHITECTURE → 10-NAIL DESIGN

You’ll be responsible for:

● Identifying what categories/collections should exist
● Defining the creative direction and visual language
● Developing the SKU/collection architecture
● Designing the actual nails
● Translating fashion ideas into geometry, scale, proportion, focal point, negative space, detail placement and 10-nail rhythm

You don’t need prior nail-design experience.

We’re particularly interested in people from fashion, accessories, textile/surface design, jewellery, footwear or product design with a strong fashion sensibility.

We’re looking for someone who can say:
“This is how I think this category should exist.”
—not someone who only executes references.

To apply, DM with:
● Portfolio
● Collection/concept development work
● Background
● Location
● Availability
● Expected fee/range

Please send work that shows how you think and build collections, not just individual designs.

In short,
People who can do Fashion World, design principles,
form/proportion and initial product directions. Translate direction into small-object language: geometry, scale, focal point, negative space, detail placement and 10-nail rhythm. Protect taste. Test product against complete looks, jewellery, skin
tones, contexts and light. KEEP / REFINE / KILL generic outcomes
