New Work: Picture Book, Fabric, Magnets

MEGALOADDD Haha.  I am excited to share some new stuff.  It's been a busy few months.

Paper Hat Press and my first picture book-Christmas Mouse written by Amy Novesky

This year I got to work on my first picture book!  I worked with some wonderful people at Paper Hat Press to produce Christmas Mouse, written by Amy Novesky.  What a cool project!  It is a customizable book.  Check out the Paper Hat Press website, it is so fun to insert custom cute things to in the book you buy.  And the designer, Sara Gillingham, was such a pleasure to collaborate with.  I really like how the book turned out.  I was honestly wondering what my work would look like in such a sweet setting, you know, minus the bats and haunted houses that I tend to get work for;) The really cool thing is that Pottery Barn Kids is showcasing it for sale as their second-in-line personalization book for Christmas this year.  Such a great promotion!  I am very thankful to have worked on this for this project and also to grateful to have my agent, Abi:)

IPOP:
When I had a booth at Surtex in May, one of the companies I met was IPOP. part of Madision Park Greetings.  They hired me to design some Valentines's magnets for their Spring 2013 line.  We did some Everyday work that will come out in 2013 as well.  The magnets are for sale here, and if you want to buy wholesale to sell in your store you can click here.










Timber & Leaf:

My third fabric collection with Blend Fabrics is comic out in December 2012.  It had a great response at Quilt Market this year so that is really exciting. I want to make a bunch of stuff out of this collection since it is my favorite so far.

  4. Sarah, I just discovered your blog, hunting for the designer of the Timber and Leaf line. The fabric line is gorgeous and I think you're a fabulous designer and illustrator. Looking forward to more collections from you!
