Welcome! I'm Joan—surface pattern designer, singer-songwriter, and crafter. I create from my home office in Iowa and on the road in my pop-up camper. Always by my side is the love of my life, Veylah—the sweetest Yorkie ever. I'm inspired by nature, organic repeating patterns, textures. I'm always drawn to timeless styles like folk art, damask, arts & crafts, and toile de jouy.

Pattern Collections designed for fabrics.


I've been in love with patterns since I can remember. I start designing collections for fabrics by hand and move them into the digital space. I paint, sketch, and carve motifs and then refine them in Procreate and Illustrator.

Feel free to review these selected collections to really get a feel for my work. And of course, you can contact me to inquire about private collections that are available for licensing.

My artworks are full of loosely-drawn botanicals and color palettes that swing between calming earthy tones,  sweetly-saturated hues, and neutrals of high contrast.
