PBK Penelope Lightswitch Cover
Tuesday, December 27, 2011I started with white for the base color and then used iron oxide brown for the little squiggle branches. The tiny leaves are a light green.
Next, I painted the top bird in pale yellow, adding white stitches around his body and then iron oxide brown, legs, eye, and squiggly wing.
The light pink bird was next, also with white stitches and iron oxide eye, beak, and legs. The wing and tail feathers are Valentine pink.
This was all I had in mind and had sketched for the mom. However, after staring at the lightswitch cover for a few minutes, I decided it needed something a little more. I looked over the bedding a bit more and went to work.
I first painted the moss green stripe on the left. Next, I added the white stitching down the stripe. Lastly, I used the end of my paintbrush for the light green polka dots down the right side.

PBK Penelope Bird Quilt Clips
Tuesday, January 5, 2010The past few months I have had many requests for quilt clips to coordinate with the Pottery Barn Kids' "Penelope" bedding. Well, I finally got around to creating a set, and here they are!
For these sweet little birdies, I used a light pink and dark pink for one, and then light yellow and cream for the second one.
Both birds have white stitches and iron oxide beaks and eyes.
The bird shape was specially laser cut for the Little Elephant Company, and the birds can face either direction.
I can also do birds in more detail to go with the bedding, or even other bird shapes if you don't care if this particular simple bird.
Contact me today for your own set of sweetly tweeting birds! Remember, my designs are available in nearly any type of room decor, not just in quilt clips. So let me know if you are interested in wall letters, curtain holdbacks, wall plaques, or a growth chart, just to name a few options.
