Elephant

Had a "Sewing Sunday" yesterday and came up with this sweet little elephant. I used some neutral organic chenille for the body and ear, the On A Whim 2 blue cats for the body and reverse ear, the squares from Animal Party for the tail, and the Creatures and Critters dot fleece for the back of the elephant's ears.  Click on the pictures to see enlarged photos.

Love these!

Saw these last night on Etsy - love this shop.

Baby Gap

I went shopping last night for a baby gift and walked into Baby Gap. I was pretty surprised to find this - it was one of the very first designs I ever sold. Sweet.

Little Girls Big Style

I am sure by now you know about the new book "Little Girls, Big Style" by Mary Abreu. It is getting really good reviews and filled with gorgeous photos of gorgeous outfits worn by her gorgeous stylin' daughter.

Sunday Sewing

Spent this past Sunday sewing a couple of girl's tops with Animal Party Too.

Bookworm Journal

I illustrated a journal this past year for Potter Style (a division of Random House). It is a sweet little journal to encourage reading for kids.
