Thank you so much for directly speaking to the Textile Design community. This is so wonderful and totally appreciated. You have a wealth of valuable information to offer. And you are truly a treasure in the fashion and textile community. This is so appreciated!

So happy I found this video. It is very helpful to understand better the industry. I also think that the best option is 5, to be indepenend freelancer as it also make you feel enterpreneur and I think it is more enriching and empowering experience, but I think before this it is good to gain experience with print studios to learn and gain experience. I love to Karina's story, so inspiring! ❤ thank you for share this video!!👏👏👏

So glad you’re back making videos! I was actually so close to getting my dream textile designing job…I was four interviews in and was interviewing for a month long. Unfortunately it didn’t end up working out. I honestly think freelancing is my next viable option. Thank you so much for the constant insight your channel offers!

[@RachelPJoy]

Is Etsy a good platform to sell seamless patterns?

[@brittanybutts4529]

I don't see a book. Just a video. I signed up for the waiting list. But I was really hoping that there would also be a book. I see that this video is over a year old but still.

[@uusha357]

Hello mam i want to ask u that i draw textile design only on page not digitally. I want to sell it or i want a job. So how can it possible? Can u tell me what should i di?

[@habituscraeftig]

I'm curious whether textile designers ever design woven color patterns or jacquards or what have you. Is it really only prints?

[@SewHeidi]

You can totally design those too!! Print is most common but any textile of course 🥰

[@carolynquan2764]

I’m a textile designer and I’ve designed embellishment layouts for beading, embroidery and sequins, jacquards as well as prints. It’s such a fun job but it is very competitive.

[@habituscraeftig]

@@carolynquan2764 @Sew Heidi: I'm so glad to hear that. I'm mostly interested in fiber blends and complex technical weaves, so I thought I had to go into textile science. This is wonderful!

[@zareicarpet5835]

Hi I am a professional carpet designer and master of carpet design, I feel there is a good opportunity for work with you,

[@SaltLake180]

This should be titled. Why you should not become a textile designer 😀

[@SewHeidi]

Why?
