Our display at Kailhofer’s Fall Festival

Most people came early as rain was on the horizon. Both Rebecca and I had early sales.

We look forward to our next sale on October 8th at Seymour Community High School.

Thank you to all who stopped and purchased. Also, thanks to those who stopped to talk and admire our work. We appreciate your kind comments, too.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Meet my king and queen

My picture book, All the Queen’s Crowns, has two main characters, the king and the queen. The king expresses his love for his queen by giving her a new crown every day. In this illustration from Prayan Animation Studio, we see the young couple without any background.

Digital illustrations come in layers. This does not show any of the things surrounding the characters, but it will when the illustration is finished. Later I will be able to share more of the completed page.

The object of my book is to show different ways of expressing love. Giving too much, as the king does, isn’t always the best, but it does lend itself to humor. Eventually, you’ll see the fun that occurs when the king’s gifts get crazy.

Remember, the book’s title is All the Queen’s Crowns and I hope you’ll tell all your friends about this forthcoming picture book.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A winter project

I walked outside to get yesterday’s mail. It is 37 degrees and windy. The driveway was plowed but now very slippery. Next time I’ll have cleats on my boots.

So came back inside to work on my winter project. I’m cutting up Bob’s old clothes to eventually make a quilt.

I started this last winter so don’t expect a completed quilt soon. More cutting to do.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm

A special bouquet

Here’s a special handmade gift I received.

If you are looking for something handmade by a Wisconsin artist, I can recommend this. The large flowers are made of wood! Sectionals can be found on sale in Bria Bella.

Check out Bria Bella on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/briabellaco/ and the internet, https://www.briabellaco.com/.

Just thought I’d share this today.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.
