Quick 'n Cute Coasters

I had some leftover Liberty print fused to wool felt from a project and realized I could turn it into 2 coasters. I found the right sized round template and traced it onto the felt, then cut around the circle with scalloped pinking shears.


Some contrasting top-stitching around the edge makes the coasters complete.
Fun little project to show off special prints :-)

We need a tree!

Things are running slow here in southern CA - we need to be like The Mousekins and get our tree! Next I'll post the new ornaments I'm working on...

Lamby Love

I've been away a long time but here's a sneak peak of my next book - just working up the dummy now but it's all written - a very simple concept story. I'm having a lot of fun with the sketches and can't wait to paint! xo

Paisley love


Yesterday I received the sweetest email from the mom of this adorable munchkin named Paisley, who loves my book of the same name:

I wanted to drop you and a note and let you know what one of your books means to my little girl. My three year old, Paisley, wants to read your book "Paisley" every night before bed. I even hear her in her room during the day reading it to her stuffed animals. Her favorite line is "the Earth shook."
She loves the book and also that the main character has the same name is her. It is really sweet to see her love for the book! She can "read" it verbatim because we have read it to her so much. I got her the book before she was born and it was always a sweet sentiment and so special to me, it's so nice to see that it is for her as well.:-)Hope this note gives you some encouragement. 
Thank you for writing this special book!

Yes, it certainly does give me encouragement - more than she can know.
One can feel small and insignificant in the book world, so a note like this means so much.  
Her mom really made my week!
