This is my latest Copy Cat, made for a friend of mine to give her sister-in-law, whose kitty had passed away.
This was one complicated kitty. And whether or not you can tell…
I do try very, very hard…
to get all the patches and stripes and colors to match the real kitty…
as closely as I can.
I hope it brings a little speck of happiness and comfort while she’s missing her sweet little friend.

I love Easter. I love all the things that shout Spring, newness and light.
All the symbols of Easter, the tulips, the eggs, the bunnies, the baskets–sweet and happy for sure…
but my favorite has always been the little white lamb.
After all…the Lamb of God is what it’s all about–isn’t it?
Take away the miracle of Easter morning and nothing else really matters.

It all started with these pretty little flowers. I’ve used these cute things for many years. They’ve been baby hat accents. They’ve been hair clips. They’ve been key fobs.
But this time, I have bigger, better plans…
that include a bunch of green leaves…
and some colorful baby birdies.
Put them all together…
and you get
the sweetest little Spring garland that you’ve ever seen!!
Happy Spring everyone!!
Here are my latest Copy Cats!!
This is Eva.
And here we have…Thor!
Eva and Thor are on their way to Portugal this very minute as a birthday surprise to my friend Teresa’s son. Sweet Teresa is the dear friend who sent me a Seed Fairy many years ago. It’s hanging in my house still.
I sure hope she loves her kitties!!
Making them was a labor of love.
Ever since Lily went to Cambodia on a service trip…
she has been crazy about elephants!
Their sweet flappy ears…
their funny little toes…
and that crazy trunk!!
So, of course she needs an elephant snuggy for Christmas!!
I hope she loves it!!
