  20. Helen, I have found your art work through a friend of mine. You are amazing at everything you do, and I hope I can work with you some day. I see some people would like to have some stained glass work of your patterns, and I can do that for anyone who would like it, as long as it's ok with the artist.

    BTW- my 2 year old daughter has seen this ornament and loves the "pretty pink happy face".
    It's also my birthday today, so this would be a great gift!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh that would look PERFECT on my tree! Last year I started buying only special one of a kind ornaments - I think your's fits the bill! Thanks!

    I used to live in Ottawa - oh so long ago;)
    Now I'm in Stockholm, and my daughter will be having her first real xmas (I don't think it last year counts as she was just 3 months old). We'd love hang your ornament on our self-fashioned recycleable tree - the Treearoo. I am postive she'll love it!=)

  62. As much as I'd love to have a piece of your artwork, there are more deserving people to get your work as I just found your blog today.

    If you don't mind me asking, can you give me a brief ste by step on how you made this. I'm a children's book illustrator, and I'd love to learn how to make plush dolls of some of my characters...Any info would be greatly appreciated.
