Pincushion Princess
Here are two pincushions I just created. The first one is a detachable froggy on a lily pad pincushion approximately 3.75" X 3.75" W & 1.75" H. The tiny froggy is 1.75" L X 1.75" W at widest point (hind legs). The second one is called "Home is where the Heart is". A cute heart pincushion approximately 3" X 3" W & 1.75" H.

Ella
Deep, deep down in the dark blue sea lives a beautiful mermaid named Ella. A rather curious mermaid with a sweet gentle spirit about her. She always seems to be engaged in some kind of daydream. Though her reality is fully blessed, her enchanted imagination longs for something different.

Kindred Spirits
This is for all of us who love the story of Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. I believe I was 15 years old when I was first introduced to the world of Anne Shirley and her dearest friend Diana Barry. I painted my version of their first encounter on 4" X 4" textured canvas using pastels & acrylic paints.
