I've been so busy filling orders that I feel like an elf! It's so fun having a hand in making Christmas wishes come true. Here are some recent custom orders.

A Peek Into My Studio

One of my favorite places on earth is in my little studio. It's where I create all of my handmade cloth dolls, stuffed animals, and develop my PDF patterns. I work in a spare room of my house, and it is packed to the gills. It is seldom neat as a pin, but usually at least partly tidy.

Picture

I usually have company, and my company usually brings his toys.

Things get a little stacked up sometimes. It's hard to have room for all of my inventory, ongoing and current projects, fabric, stuffing, packing supplies and everything else in a ten by ten area! But I shoe-horn it all in somehow.

Picture

I am seldom without tunes of some kind (okay, I admit to an inordinate amount of Journey) and I often stare out the window at the trees in my yard when I take a tea break.

Thanks for stopping by the Hen and Chick Studio for a visit!

Come back soon!

The Chaos of Creating

When I start to make something new, I'm usually so excited, in such a hurry to see the end result, that I leave things strewn around instead of putting my supplies away neatly as I go. It leaves quite a jumble behind, let me tell you.

I'm mentioning this as a metaphor for this blog. I hope you stick with me as I find out my stride here. And in return, I'll do my best to give you pretty things to look at and glimpses into my creative process, even if they are less than polished.
