Hollie is a visual artist, a pattern enthusiast, and one of the top selling fabric pattern designers on Spoonflower. On her website she writes, “There is so much to be inspired by in our time. Each of my collections develops from a single idea, color or specific shape and is molded into a cohesive grouping of patterns. Coloring within the collection is an essential component to the overall story. ”

One day Jill decided to change her life. She gave up her 9 to 5, sold everything she owned and flew to India on a one-way ticket. That is when she discovered a world of patterns and color. Today, she lives in the English Cotswolds creating beautiful hand drawn and painted repeats, many times using the flowers from her own garden.

Danika's background is in Interior Design. Decorative Painting led her to her passion of Textile and Wallpaper Design. She describes her style perfectly, "Imagine if Palm Beach and New England got hitched and had a chinoiserie baby." Danika has definitely found the secret sauce thanks to this “classic with a twist” aesthetic and an eye for design.

This seasoned design ninja has found a knack for translating trends and ideas into make-able, sell-able, covert-able products. Michael has worn many design team hats, which means he can work as a team player, team leader, and rogue designer. It must have been those 17 years he spent working in the home decor, housewares, and gift ware industries that prepared him for his ability to create the pretty cool designs we now see on Spoonflower.
