Tula who?
Who am I? Whatta question. I could tell you where I went to school or recite the high points of my resume or give you a list of people that I have worked with, for or around. I could lie and make myself seem really super fabulous and important… hmmm tempting. Really, I am a designer of the graphic variety with a soft spot for fabric and a childlike need to say things like “hey, look what I made!”
Everything I design starts from a single drawing which multiplies into a mountain of grid paper and pencil lead that seems to trail behind me wherever I go. I often wake up in the middle of the night to the light crunching noise of some forgotten sketch trying to nap under my pillow. I am what some would call obsessive but what I like to refer to as dedicated.
When I set out to draw my first fabric collection, I started with the usual variety of paisleys and flowers, stripes and dots. It didn’t take long for the shapes to begin migrating into a delicate camouflage of hidden creatures and themes. This is what is beginning to define my fabric collections as I baby step into this new career.
So that’s me in a nut shell. Please enjoy my little sanctuary of show and tell.
