I spent much of my childhood either elbow deep in the dirt or the craft drawer, as my family moved all across the U.S. My college years took me to Savannah, Georgia where I acquired a BFA in fibers. Now I’m living in Vermont with my favorite guy and our sweet little girl. I spend my days designing, making, & being a part-time children's librarian. Open for commissions + collaborations!

Veggies! 🥦🍅🥕 pattern is inspired by what I’m working on as part of the @makeartthatsells My Toy Pitch Class. Swipe to see the pretend play set concept! (and a photo of some plush carrots I made a few years back for a sewing pattern I wrote—imagine how cute the beets, radishes, tomatoes & broccoli would be in real life like these!)

Take a peek!!! My sketchbook from the last five weeks! I’ve just wrapped up the amazing course, Illustrating Children’s Books (from @makeartthatsells).
Such an adventure! I’m most proud of my daily practice in this sketchbook.
