Mark Cesarik is a designer and artist in New York who collaborates regularly with Freespirit Fabrics on fabric collections. "I'm very happy to be partnered up with Freespirit — it's a great outlet for people who love sewing and quilting but also have a higher fine arts sensibility. My background is fine art, illustration and design and I'm not a quilter or sewer, but fortunately my wife Cara is really locked in to whole craft/DIY thing."

In the images above, Mark shares a preview from a forthcoming collection inspired by the colours and activities of Summer Camp. "My design process starts off in a sketchbook and then is brought into illustrator for vector and repeat creation. It's a really enjoyable process."
