It's my absolute most favorite part of business - designing the new mally bibs collection.  I'm just in the early stages of our design process for our next collection: brainstorming, sketching, and drawing in CAD (computer assisted drafting).  Designing an entire new collection usually takes me a few weeks to a month off and on.  I often wait until the creative mood strikes, which is usually late at night when the kids are sound asleep.  I keep a little diary throughout the year to jot down customer requests or to sketch design ideas as I'm inspired by something.  If you have any fabulous design ideas that you would like us to consider, we would love to hear!  Just add a comment to this post to let us know!
