I’ve always loved to draw animals. As a kid, growing up in South Carolina, I used to wander around the Columbia zoo, my eyes glued to a sketch pad. Ah those were the days…

Now I get to do drawings of a different kind – ones with the intention of bringing these animals to life in felt form. I’m a sucker for details and so my work is a kind of combination of realistic and cartoony. If I can sketch it, I can stitch it.

One of the products in my shop that has been particularly fun is my personalized dog ornaments. I’ve got to know dogs from all over the USA and Canada.

You send me the photos, I do up a sketch, create a template and start stitching. Add your pet’s name to make it extra personalized. Have it made as an ornament or keychain.

I can do any breed as long as I have clear photos to work with. To name just a few – I’ve done a Retriever, Lab, German shepherd, Westie, Eskie, Corgi, Chihuahua, Leonberger, Pit bull, Cotonpoo, Rottweiler, Jack Russel pug mix, and more.

If you’re a mom-to-be wanting a mobile that celebrates the dogs in your life, I also do a custom dog nursery mobile.

So without further ado, let me introduce you to some of these fun characters I’ve had the pleasure of creating.
