Folded this origami wood duck to send to a relative who collects duck decoys.

Hope everyone is well and staying warm—it's been very cold where I am, so I'm bundling up and staying close to the woodstove.

Lots of love, and wishing you all a good week!

Fabric / wallpaper surface pattern design for a challenge on Spoonflower themed around painterly florals.

Been a crazy busy week for me so far. Hope everyone's well!

Anything in particular you'd like to see announced from Nintendo partners?

Here is a teaser for a brand new project!

I made this salad for MumBlargh, and she wants me to share it with you all.

Hmm... That's a lot of mouths to feed. I might have to make a bigger salad, huh.
