My Little Friend Salem

A few months ago I received a special request from a little girl named Salem. It was for an elephant. Not just any elephant. It was to be purple, pink, sky blue, with plenty of flowers. It was a tall order! But I loved the challenge of making all of those colors work together and to meet her very high expectations. One day, while out hunting for fabrics (always on the prowl...) I came across this purple fabric that had everything Salem was looking for -- all in one!

Miss Salem was so sweet, and sent me a beautiful card. It was adorned with her own artwork (her mom is an amazing artist too) on the cover, and a thank-you note that was precious. I keep it up on my clipboard in my studio. I love the little hearts and stars coming out of the trunk. I think I hit the mark! ; )





Dreaming of a special elephant to call YOUR own?
