Source Fabrics

Design with the fabrics in mind

Instead of sourcing the fabric weeks after your initial design and having to constantly change your concept, design with fabrics in mind from day one. Source from thousands of fabrics, all shipping low quantities in the US.

I initially compared @makethedot to Pinterest, which was a mistake because it’s very different. With Make the Dot, I can create clean-looking boards quickly and easily, without getting bogged down with the overwhelming Canvas options.

I can’t rave enough about how @makethedot is the perfect solutions for fashion teams looking to streamline their creative process. I can create amazing looking moodboards easily, and share that inspiration with clients (who add their own ideas) and get their feedback. I also love an ideating tool, where I can collect all my images and clippings and organize them quickly, without changing software.

I’ve loved the opportunity to try @makethedot :) I love the infinite canvas. The board is so much bigger when I zoom out. It's easy to use on my desktop and to eye drop colours from photos 🥰

I like that I can choose which cards and sections of the board I share, so my collaborators don't see things I don't want them to see.

I like how everything is in one place, which we don't have now. To be able to group and share certain cards would save so much time. I like the commenting. Its like a checkbox for each card.
