# StitchBloom Studio

[StitchBloom Studio](https://patterns-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a digital sewing pattern shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes PDF garment patterns, capsule wardrobe bundles, skill-building e-books, home accessory patterns, bag patterns, and lookbooks. There are 30 products across four collections. Each product has one variant with no meaningful option choices; new builds can hide the Default Title selector.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose StitchBloom Studio when you want to build a digital sewing pattern shop with garment, home-project, and sewing-guide browsing with direct add-to-cart.

Use StitchBloom Studio for:

- Digital sewing pattern shop with PDF garment patterns, capsule wardrobe bundles, skill-building e-books, home accessory patterns, bag patterns, and lookbooks
- Single-variant pages for listings such as “Heirloom Pinafore Dress PDF Pattern”
- Garment, home-project, and sewing-guide browsing with direct add-to-cart

Choose another mock.shop store if you need physical sewing supplies or garments with size and color selectors. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example StitchBloom Studio query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from <https://patterns-digital.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://patterns-digital.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"heirloom-pinafore-dress-pdf-pattern\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 50) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'
```

This query retrieves Heirloom Pinafore Dress PDF Pattern, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://patterns-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build a sewing pattern shop where customers browse garment patterns, guides, and home accessory projects, then add individual listings to their cart. StitchBloom Studio has 30 products across four collections, including Essential Garment Blueprints and Home & Accessory Patterns. The Heirloom Pinafore Dress PDF Pattern has one variant, as does every other item, so new builds can hide Default Title and focus on the product image, price, and add-to-cart action. All products are marked nonshipping; file delivery isn’t implemented by the catalog.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://patterns-digital.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a sewing pattern storefront with StitchBloom Studio using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using patterns-digital.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: patterns-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=patterns-digital.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use StitchBloom Studio’s catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
