hooray forever : all things melissa dettloff in one handy place

Hello, my name is Melissa.

I live in Ypsilanti, Michigan with my dog-friend Miguel.

I sew, I draw, I take photographs. I design and build clean and friendly websites for small businesses and non-profits. I have worked as a web designer & developer, project manager, photographer, pseudo-librarian, and stitch maker.

By day I am a full-time web developer at a community college, and by night I do freelance web, illustration, and photography work for local clients; sew, run & read; and work on many of the projects seen here. I ran my own business making clothing for four years. Twice a year I help organize the Shadow Art Fair, an art event in Ypsi. I am featured in the book, Handmade Nation. Sometimes I make stuffed severed unicorn heads and monster costumes.

Want to work with me on a project? Say hello!
