welcome

pattern making is a small but growing community of pattern makers sharing in the felt experience of aligning how we live with who we want to be together through writing and art.

It is also a playful, collaborative experiment in creating more space and infrastructure for our individual and collective shapeshifting. We hope you enjoy and stay engaged!

patterns volume 4 is here! 

We produce patterns twice a year to give you a curated look at the writing and art on this site.
