Welcome to Flying Spider Monkey Design

I’m Heidi and here you’ll find my surface pattern designs, illustrations and creations. As long as I can remember, I’ve loved making things. From quilts to candles—jewelry to websites—handmade greeting cards to inspired, original recipes. As a graphic designer for over 30 years, I enjoy immense pleasure and satisfaction in arranging elements, connecting things and realizing creations never before in existence.
