new pattern:)



A brand new pattern today - 'circus friends'. I think it turned out fun! 
In Odessa, the circus posters were everywhere. I think they came to town a few days after us. I meant to go and show the kids, but never got around it. Oh, well. The kids were my own personal circus. It's hard to have a boring moment with that bunch:)

    Wow Helen...did you say something about not gathering artistic inspiration in Odessa? tststs..;)

    If by any chance I should ever have the pleasure of meeting you in person, would you reveal to me your secret of topping each of your wonderful designs with the next one?...:)

    Adore the pattern - my fave bit is the crazy girl on the unicycle. She's saying "ta-daa!" for sure!
