**black cat signature iphone case**

I was desperately hoping for like 2 years that everyone would forget about the black cat pattern, because I do a ton of other things and everyone always wants to talk about the cats, but now I'm just embracing it as my thing. If I ever accidentally become a real fashion designer, there will probably be one thing every season with this print.

I set up a little shop on Society6 primarily to sell iPhone cases and immediately ordered this one for myself. And it's great! It's a lot thinner and sleeker than my old case, and the print quality is really nice. I've listed a dozen different patterns in the Society6 shop, and if you see pattern you want as a case that isn't there now, just let me know and I can put it up!

    1. I know, I love their new Shop interface! I've considered it, but I already sell yardage through my own shop upon request, so I think I'm going to hold off for now.

    1. I use a bunch of different printers, depending on what I need, but if you're just starting out with digital printing I'd recommend Spoonflower.com. Their interface is really easy to use, they're prices are reasonable and the quality is great. Hope this helps! xx

  6. You should consider adding your bear print as an option! I would buy that in a second. So obsessed...I already have a dress in it!

    1. I know, I really want to put that one up there! It's sort of tricky because on the fabric the bears are spread out a lot, and the phone is such a small surface. I'm going to move them around and figure it out soon. So glad you have the dress too! xx

  7. Good post. Can you do some other designs as well? What kind of adhesive did you use?

  8. Leah,

    Do you think you'll have more cat dresses on Etsy in the near/distant future? I love all your other patterns, but as I cat lady, I would love love LOVE to own a cat dress (as opposed to the bear dress).

    Thanks much,
    A

    1. Hi Alice! I do still make the black cat dress upon request, I just don't have it listed right now because there's a bit of a wait list. Can you contact me on Etsy for more info? Thanks! xx

  9. Oh my gosh! This is so cute. Something about your ability to take a "cutesy" concept and make it so geometrical and structured it really brilliant.

    I work at Anthropologie, and one of the managers just told me about you. Now I'm just so jealous of your talent and entrepreneurship. Your cat dress is a major hit.

    1. So sorry you are having a bad experience with them! I've always felt that the cases are great quality and been very satisfied with their customer service. I'm sure if you contact them they will be able to help you out with your missing case.
