Creating a Pattern Collection: Sharing Your Work
I am always looking for fun approaches to sharing my work that will help buyers imagine using the patterns I create on different products. You cannot always have your new designs made into something right away. So, creating a way for customers to see your designs on various products, so they can envision using them, is important for helping your designs stand out.
Ways to showcase your pattern collection could be photographs of your printed swatches from Spoonflower, prints of your patterns, mocking up your patterns, creating a portfolio book, connecting with makers, and making fun DIY projects with your pattern fabrics.
There are a lot of ways to showcase your pattern designs, but in this blog post I am going to talk about using mockups.
I get most of my mockups from Creatsy and my friend Jenny at Jenlynn Stock Shop, along with a few other places here and there. Below are a few of my favorite mockups from both of these mockup creators.
Dotted Minky Blanket Mockup from Jenlynn Stock Shop

Bath Towel Mockup From JenLynn Stock Shop
This is another beautiful towel mockup with my Orchard Park florals. I am also partial to this mockup because this is actually my master bathroom shower!
Pillow Mockup from JenLynn Stock Shop
I love using this mockup in my Etsy graphics shop.
Bathroom Wallpaper Mockup from Creatsy
This is such a wonderful bathroom mockup where you can really see a pattern design come to life on a product like wallpaper!
You can find this bathroom mockup here in Creatsy’s Creative Market Shop
