I just finished these baby portraits for the moms in my baby boy's playgroup. It was a challenge for myself and a thank-you to them for being a wonderful support for me during these first months of motherhood...us girls gotta stick together

A lovely hand embroidered beanie for my husband's birthday present. Must make sure the boy's noggin is warm and toasty (yes...even in July...in Southern California...geeez) The design is one that he drew many moons ago...long forgotten in a sketchbook...

I just finished the first piece of artwork for my October baby boy's room. It was inspired by the artwork of Yuko Lau. I chose a flying pig because wonderful and amazing things can happen when pigs start to fly!! The frame is an old wood one inherited from my grandmother's "art stash". I cut it down, primed it and painted it with acrylics. The frame was a bit labor intensive, but I think well worth the effort. I have an accompanying monkey king in the works. Will post when he's completed!

I created this duvet cover as a wedding present to my husband. It took me over a year to complete (I have a short attention span...). I had never done a project like this(embroidery/sewing) and learned a lot in the process. Nothing like starting out small, huh!? It certainly isn't perfect but I 'm really happy with the result and my husband really loves it

Let me know what you think. Thanks!
