Meet the Artist: Debby McLaughlin

Published by NannetteD on 20th Feb 2024

We are thrilled to introduce Debby McLaughlin, the artist behind Cat Spring Art and the "Morgana" floral design collection now available on The Textile District! This floral themed collection features eight designs in three colorways each including rich shades of greens and blues, plum and purple, and earthy warm shades of golden mustard, dusty peach, and rusty reds.

Each custom print on any base fabric you choose so you can create the fabrics you need to fit your style and project needs. "I am a mixed media artist and surface pattern designer based in Texas. After a successful career in the tech industry as a software project manager, I have transitioned to a role of hands-on creativity. As a surface pattern designer I have combined my love of design, color and textiles with the technical skills of digital illustration.

Debby learned to sew in the 1970's, and made many of her own clothes in high school. She is also a quilt enthusiast, and loves to collect patterns, create sample blocks, and has a hoard of fat quarters.

Debby McLaughlin Sewing demo 2023 SFA She is a living historian and demonstrates hand sewing and discusses women's fashions in the 1830's at a state historic site. She volunteers at several Texas Historical Commission State Historic Sites, and some other sites that educate the public on Texas history: Fanthorp Inn SHS, San Felipe SHS, Stephen F Austin Statue, and George Ranch Historical Park.

We've presented each design and their colorways below so you can shop the entire collection from this post. As an extra bonus, we have included a section featuring "outdoor pillow inspiration" to illustrate how beautiful the colorways mix and match to get your creative juices flowing!
