Busy, Busy, Busy

One week until my annual craft show. One day I'll start getting ready for it more than two weeks in advance. Right now I'm knee-deep in colored pencils and cardstock, mostly because I've decided to give my Moo's Angels card line a complete makeover. I'm retiring some old designs and drawing a ton of new stuff. As soon as I'm satisfied with the Christmas cards, I'll start reworking the regular designs. We'll see how far I get in a week. And I'd really like to have some designs on shirts and baby onesies again. I've got a LOT to do, but then, when do I not?

I've been struggling with figuring out how to actually sell the cards from my website for years now and had a forehead smack moment last week. I created an Etsy shop exclusively for Moo's Angels. I think it'll work out well- I can list current inventory and custom orders there and payment can include credit cards. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed. Well, when they aren't otherwise occupied with a colored pencil. Or a one-year-old.

Babies and Bunny Ears


My grandma let me borrow the pattern for these simple dolls recently. She and her friends make them for charity. I changed a few things about the finishing details and added a tiny bunny to match each one. I'm still in the process of making pocket pillows that will be each doll/bunny combo's bed. So far, of those that have been given as gifts we're two for two on "delighted little girls." Hooray! I'm also loving that they make a great way to use up small bits of cool fabric that I seem to have in endless amounts.


These were specifically requested by one of my favorite mommies for her girls. I was more than happy to provide, because honestly, what's cuter than a kid with bunny ears?
