My show at Young Blood Gallery in Atlanta with the amazing David Hale opens next week on Saturday night, March 7. I will be there and if you are in the area, I hope you will, too. I'd love to meet you. I have made 17 original soft sculpture birds for this show, my most…
Lila: A Cloth Doll
I couldn’t resist making another. This is Lila and she is a little sweetheart. Her dress is a piece of vintage fabric from my rarely opened box of purple fabrics. And it is adorned with two vintage garter buttons. She is up in my shop now. Roxanne and I took part in a kid’s ATC…
little lark
I made another little lark, this one for the shop. I hope you'll check it out. My mom is visiting this week and we are on school vacation so not a ton of sewing going on. But fun projects are in the works for next week. Looking forward to seeing you then.

A little spring lark for a special project.
Zoe: A Cloth Doll
Last night I couldn't resist the urge to make a doll. Meet Zoe. I first drew up the pattern for this doll nearly two years ago and I always liked her. What a fun project! I love picking fabrics and embellishments for dolls. The choices are nearly endless. Zoe's dress is a lovely green vintage…
An Owl for Lisa
Today I finished an owl I made for Lisa. About a month ago Lisa took more than 300 amazing photos of my birds and I made this owl for her as a way of saying thank you. I hope she likes it. Besides being a incredible photographer, Lisa now has her own Etsy shop where…
woodpecker
With spring on my mind I made a little woodpecker. She is affixed to a little wooden plank. I drilled three small holes at the top, as though she has already begun her work. She is now listed in my shop. There are lots of birds available, and many with new lower prices. I hope…
a pea chick
Let's see. This bird started out as something else entirely (this is often the case with me). I saw a little prop in a photo in a catalog a few days ago (was it Urban Outfitters? Anthro.? I can't remember now). A little quail-like bird with no feet. I clipped it out and then dug…
crows and a close
A murder of crows. There are two more in flight above them. These bring me to the end of my work for Young Blood. 18 birds made over the last four months. This is our dresser this morning. Wading birds waiting to be affixed to their driftwood bases. Owls and a peacock looking around the…
Pink Bird
My sewing machine is fixed and back home where it belongs. And it works so well now! Wow. Smooth operating. I hadn't even realized that it needed to be cleaned and oiled. Last night Charlie was out late at a meeting and I made this bird. I have been using the same color palette of…
