Forest Friends

By Marceline | July 5, 2009

forest friends badges

It’s a new badge set! With all the prototyping and faffing I’ve been doing lately it was great to get something finished. These are all doodles from my sketchbooks and they seemed to go together – I could imagine them all hanging out in a forest together. The little sprite on the bottom left definitely has something Totoro-ish about him; personally I believe he grew out of an acorn. Anyway, if you like them, they are in my shop (and Etsy, Folksy and DaWanda too).

fabric notebooks

Also in the shop are the last two Japanese fabric notebooks – a Fun Bunny and a Happy Day. I’m keeping the rest of the fabric for ME so this is your last chance!

I had a lovely day trip on Saturday out to Inver Cottage near Loch Fyne with Katy of Girl Industries – it was lovely and sunny, we saw some amazing scenery and I even got free pie and mash! I’m not sure how you could make that better. We were out there on Mafia business (complete with horse’s head in the boot!) so I will have more to tell you about that once we confirm things. Yay!

Don’t forget you can name the horse, over at the GCM blog. From what I hear, the prizes are pretty awesome so get to it!
