Want to flex your creative muscles and whip up some award-worthy textile designs, but need a little assistance as you develop new skills and techniques?
WHAT: We're thrilled to announce a new series–Spoonflower Bootcamp! Each week we'll be bringing you quick and simple tips for learning to design you own textiles and use the Spoonflower site. Having trouble uploading your first design? Need a little help understanding RGB and CMYK? No worries! We'll be sharing all the little tricks you need to know to get your surface design game on point.
HOW: All you have to do is follow along each week to learn a new skill or technique! Snap a picture of your progress and use the #spoonbootcamp hashtag each week to share what you're learning. You can use this hasthag on any social media site (or just hashtag in your heart and keep your drawings to yourself!).

Looking forward to #spoonbootcamp! Right on time for me, as I’m new to having a spoonflower shop and way into making patterns with my illustrations at the moment. 🙂
This could be really great! I have entered a few of your contests and have difficulty choosing a final scale for the prints. Hope you talk about that on e week!
wohoo when does it start and how long for? Where can I find out more info please?
