More from the World of Illustration

I've been hurrying to complete projects as my due date quickly approaches for baby boy #2.

While there has been a lot of sewing going on, I've also been up to my eyeballs in some illustration projects. I wish I could share more, but for right now, I'll give you a hint that one project involves fabric design for someone else and another is some possible book illustration...I couldn't be more excited about these opportunities!
I CAN share what Kerri and I have been up to lately as she is getting ready to set up a new website for her fabric shop, Sew Deerly Loved. Kerri has had all kinds of positive words to offer as I joined the quilting/sewing community, so when she asked me to design some graphics for her new site, I was more than excited.

Here is the latest "Little Red" illustration that Kerri asked for. (In the appropriate colors of red, pink, and aqua, of course!). She will be offering this design (minus my shameless plug text) on fabric very soon...you can visit her blog for a glimpse.
I would love to make some additions to my etsy shop, Pocketful of Pinwheels, in the near future. Would you like to see something specific? I've been tossing around the idea of fine art prints and notecards for awhile...what would you like to see??

Little Red is so cute. I have loved all of your drawings. I can just imagine them as prints hanging in a nursery. The possibilities with your talent are endless. Also, I am getting excited for you about your new little guy's arrival. Take care.

I love your fabric designs so much! Especially the raccoon... I wish so much that you could get your designs picked up by a major fabric label, because I really dislike the quality of spoonflower fabrics... have been very disappointed with the stuff I've bought from them... but i would SOOO love to have some of your little designs in my collection... have you approached some of the major companies? if not, you totally should!
