A PATTERN EVERY MONTH
CANCEL ANYTIME
CREATIVE JOY
Here's how we spend our month together:
Week 1
Pattern Prompt
Your monthly creative invitation arrives. Something seasonal, sensory, and inspiring enough to take wherever you want to go. An invitation.
Sets the whole month's creative direction and builds the most wonderful anticipation.
Week 2
Pattern Play
Drawing with Bonnie! We sit down together, live. I have my sketchbook. You have yours. I reference you the prompt and then we both create. No polished demos where I make it look easy. We figure it out together, in the moment, side by side.
This will be the creative moment we look forward to all month.
Week 3
Pattern Building
A short, focused lesson that takes the motifs you drew in Week 2 and turns it into a finished, repeating pattern. Built for beginners!Just exactly what you need to finish this month's design, beautifully.
This is a skill-building moment wrapped in something that feels like play (not homework). 📄
Week 4
Pattern to Product
Step by step, I walk you through uploading your finished pattern to a premium Print-on-Demand platform. By the end of the month, your design will be on a product that makes your home (or shop!) more beautiful.
This is the moment everything comes together!
By the end of every month, you'll have something you made, something you're proud of, and something that exists in the world.
For $47/month, you get simple, actionable tools including
eye-catching product mockups, professional business templates,
social media content prompts, and real-world creative briefs for
licensing opportunities with dream brands.
WEEK 1
Pattern Play
Your monthly creative invitation.
Every month starts with a theme. A full, rich, beautifully curated creative world to step into, with everything you need to get inspired and get going.
Think mood imagery. Color palettes with hex codes. Motif ideas to spark your own. A sense of the season, the feeling, the story you're making something for.
One month it might be Heirloom Cottage, all pressed florals and faded greens and the quiet warmth of a grandmother's kitchen. Another month it might be something bolder, something wilder, something entirely unexpected.
You take it wherever your creativity wants to go. The prompt is your starting point, not your destination. That's the whole point.
WEEK 2
Pattern Play
Live drawing with Bonnie
Just you, me and a blank page, my friends!
Can I tell you the best part of Pattern Play?
Once a month, we sit down together and we tackle the blank page. You grab your sketchbook, your pencil, whatever you love to draw with. I reference that month's Pattern Prompt and I just... start. Right there, on camera, with no finished plan.
And you draw along with me. Making your own thing as I make mine.
The blank page is so much less scary when you're not staring at it alone.
WEEK 3
Pattern Builder
Build Your Pattern
From a sketch you drew to a pattern ready for a product.
Week 3 is where the magic happens! You take the motif you created in Pattern Play and turn it into a finished, repeating pattern.
Each month's tutorial is short, focused, and built for beginners. This is focused on using Adobe Illustrator as easily as possible. I'll teach you exactly what you need to finish this month's pattern, beautifully.
Step by step. One beautiful thing at a time.
WEEK 4
Pattern to Product
Your finish line!
Every month, I walk you through getting your finished pattern onto a product using print-on-demand companies we've personally researched and handpicked for you.
No guessing which platforms are worth your time. No wading through options that won't do your work justice. We've done that work so you don't have to.
Step by step, we get your design off your desktop and into the world.
And when it's there, when it's live and available and yours, something shifts. You're creating the beauty you want to see come alive in the world!

Here's the truth
Every week you spend debating your next move is another week your art stays hidden on your hard drive.
Every project you don't share, because you're...
- unsure
- unclear
- or overwhelmed
... is a missed chance to be seen, licensed, and paid.
Let's get your work out there!
Whether you're landing your next deal or dreaming up your first, you're ready to show your work to the world.
You need turnkey, recurring solutions to get out there consistently:
- Tools that save time
- Reduced friction in your business
- A creative rhythm that supports consistency
- A portfolio that wins attention & deals
- A social strategy that actually works
Designers spend years trying to create what Pattern+ delivers every month.
Wouldn't it be simple if all it took was rolling up your sleeves and making art?
Instead, it's easy to get stuck in a cycle of create & wait ... where your art piles up instead of getting picked up.
"If you build it, they will come" only worked for Field of Dreams.
Most creatives spend somewhere between 5 and 15 hours a week spinning their wheels: planning posts, tweaking pitch emails, or researching trends. 🙋♀️
Pattern+ hands you that clarity in one monthly drop, so you can spend your time creating.
It's time to sail through your task list and focus your effort on the art that needs your undivided attention, so you can get your work out into the world ... where it belongs.

Hey there, I'm Bonnie!
I’m an artist, educator, and CEO who built a thriving business from scratch with an Etsy shop and a “10 seconds of courage” attitude. The struggles, the impostor syndrome, the uncertainty. I've been there... but I'm here to tell you: if I can do it, so can you.
I dreamt up the Pattern+ with busy creatives in mind. Its ready-to-use resources are designed to protect your time, effort, and mental energy while helping you get traction in your career.
