I've had a lot of requests for the pattern for the duck rattle I made a few weeks ago. I have the pattern as part of a kit, but many people already have the fabric and just wanted to pattern itself. Josephine took the duck rattle for a test drive. She really didn't want to…
New Pattern! Safari Hand Puppets
I'm really excited to show you my new pattern! Three safari-themed hand puppets to sew: a zebra, a giraffe, and a leopard. These guys have stuffed and fully-lined heads for a really professional feel. I've wanted to design puppets for a while now and I'm really pleased with how this trio came out. Now I'm…
Lovey Dovey 2nd Edition
Building on the success of my first Lovey Dovey pattern, I've designed a 2nd edition! There were so many cute animals to choose from it was hard to decide. This series began with the owl and then grew from there with a penguin, a pig, and finally an elephant. You could easily turn the penguin…
Magical Molly and Bronco Ben Hobby Horse Pattern
I am very excited about this new pattern. Last summer I made a hobby horse and it has been sitting in the corner of the studio staring at me all this time. I reimagined it as a magical pink unicorn sewn in dark and light pink fleece with colorful polka dotted reins, a sparkly horn,…
Custom Plush from a Child’s Drawing: “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”
I found this excellent drawing in a box of artwork in the attic saved from when Roxanne was four-years-old. I don't actually remember her making this one in particular, but I absolutely love this rainbow guy and the writing, too. A beautiful, fleeting moment in her life. And now we have Mr. Rainbow to hug….

There are no small parts that might come off, even after years of snuggling and play. And make a cute matching blankie, too, perfect for the crib and complete with…
Custom Bear for a Print Ad
Over the winter I got a call from an art director who was making a print ad for a pharmaceutical company. The ad was for a new pre-natal vitamin that helps alleviate constipation and the art director was looking for a custom teddy bear that was, well…constipated. Making this bear qualifies as one of the…
Plush From a Child’s Drawing: Simon’s Snail
Simon came home from Kindergarten with this snail drawing a few months ago. I think it was a pretty slapdash effort, actually, but to me this snail had such incredible personality. I squirreled the drawing away upstairs for a future plush project. I mentioned to Simon this week that I was making a plush snail…
Trixie and Tess: A Topsy Turvy Doll
Aren't Topsy Turvy dolls cool? Sort of creepy, but also sort of amazing! Once I started making reversible toys, I felt like I had to make this classic children's toy. I named her Trixie and Tess. Trixie is a rather stern girl, dressed in deep purple with a severe hairstyle. She is not in a…
