Pattern design

I am a freelance pattern designer. I have designed for fabric, clothing, stationery and tableware.

Illustration

I can create bespoke illustrations for your project, or you can license them from my portfolio.

Branding and graphics

I make impactful logo design as well as brand assets for use on websites and marketing.

Hi, I am Heidi (on the roof of my hand-built cottage)!

I am a passionate designer, who loves making beautiful patterns, illustrations and unique pieces.
My favourite themes are nature; first flowers, then animals. But I love illustrating lots of things!

You can see my most recent art work on my Instagram feed - and the surface pattern designer page on this site.

If you are interested in working with me, please email me with the details of your project.

Testimonials

What my clients and customers say

"Heidi Vilkman is a brilliant combination of creative magic and professional precision. She worked quickly and imaginatively to meet the brief, hit every deadline, delivered on budget and the outcome exceeded expectation. A rare thing indeed to have the full creative package and she was an absolute delight to collaborate with. Will definitely be working with her again and again. "

Helen Meller, Director - Arvon Lumb Bank

“Utterly stupendous as always! All of the things that I’ve ordered are fabulous, even better than I was expecting. Unique and beautiful, simply magical!”

Katja Bergman

“ We used Heidi to design us custom illustrations for our website. The subject matter was pretty technical, but she somehow managed to make it interesting and fun, keeping it looking interesting, yet stylish. We highly recommend her to anyone needing graphics or illustrations on their website.”
