Filly and Foal Update

I'm working real hard on getting stuff for sale online for those of you who don't live in Toronto, but first I have to figure out how to properly photograph everything-- jeez Louise! Until then, here are a couple of bad iPhone shots of what's to come.

What A Doll

Earlier this summer I spent three weeks in Logan, Utah with my family. We spent our days eating sno-cones, running around like maniacs, watching Lonesome Dove, and visiting my favourite antique malls. I ended up carting home a bunch of books, like this one from 1969 about doll-making. Maybe someday I will get around to trying to make one, but for now it makes a pretty good/weird picture book!

This is my friend Ruby, and her little son Casper. Ruby lives in Australia, and until recently I had only known her as my facebook pen pal, and through her amazing blog. But when the chance came up to drive to Montreal this weekend to meet Ruby and her little family I had to take it! We spent most of the time sitting in the park with our mutual friends enjoying/complaining about the heat and watching the babies be cute. Maddie is almost exactly a year older than Casper, but since they are both the same size, both smiley, happy, and adorable, we've arranged a marriage.

It was so lovely to meet you Ruby, Steve and Casper. Come back soon! xo
