On my desk...

This is a zipper bag in progress for my almost 3 year old, Wesley. He got really excited about a yellow zipper when we went to the fabric store the other day. So, I'm just trying to cater to his whims here...yellow felt, elephant, crocodile. I hope he likes it.


I have been having fun drawing in my backyard. I bought a bunch of colored pens and a pad of paper that's way too long for my scanner.


I hope to do a better job photographing them later. Maybe I'll get a sunny day for better lighting soon.

And yes, that's a silk screen in the background. Out from under the bed. Ready to go. Let's see what happens...wish me luck!

Happy Fall

Wow, it's been a while. Here's a little felt acorn...it's about 2" high. I'm getting excited about a new project I'm working on. Stay posted!

Baby Bug Shirts

So, I'm working on these shirts for your little ones. For those of us who would like to counter some of the cuteness. A nice way to balance things out.

They are made with fabric markers that use completely non-toxic fabric dyes. The design wraps around to the back.

I have sizes newborn, 6 months, 12 months & 18 months. I'm still working on pricing, but let me know if your interested...more designs to come!

Bearly Musicians

So this is my new series of drawings that will eventually become baby shirt designs. I'm not sure how well the musicians I am choosing will sell. But at least they are amusing me!

Has anyone heard of these guys?

Felting felting

I think I'm finally getting the knack on this wool felting business...

This is the rest of my thrift store purchase wool sweater. Is it still cool enough anywhere to wear wool sweaters? I propose we turn them all into felted wool softies!
I made another awesome purchase...rubber gloves! I found these at World Market and they're all grippy and heavy duty. Now my skin doesn't rub off when I felt! Bonus!

Meet the Shapes!

Here's the newest additions to the Twiggy Squiggy softie family. They're going to be great for a baby's room. I'm going to construct a mobile so they can dazzle fans of all ages.
And I have to send you over to check out my favorite Dallas band, The Shapes!

The number 2

My little boy turned two today. So I made him a "2" softie. Here's my pattern.

And here's the finished product. It turned out a little thinner than I expected.

I think it really has some personality.
