Humpty Dumpty #1

Who knew there were so many Humpty Dumpty pics lurking in Leslie's books? The sheet includes a paper toy plus instructions. It's similar to this Halloween toy (that includes a short video showing it in motion).

More cute Humpty Dumpty illustrations. There's also a new rubber stamp of Humpty Dumpty.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.

Couldn't put Humpty together again.

My Pretty Maid

"Where are you going, my pretty maid" is a fairly feminist poem for Mother Goose. Here's the rhyme. The collage sheet includes sheet music (that makes a lovely trim to bind the edge of a fabric postcard or ATC) and a few milkmaids.

Here's a close-up.

This sheet is also available in a kit.

My Lady's Garden

This is a half-page sheet (5.5" x 8.5"). It's a good starter/trial size if you haven't used a fabric collage sheet (and the long strips of flower borders are good for binding the edges of a tiny fabric quilt square). If you order 2, you'll get a full-size sheet (with 2 copies of the design)

This is a variation of the "Mary, Mary, quite contrary" rhyme (see below). Here's a close-up. Ribbons that match this sheet are here.

Quite Contrary #1

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row.

Peter, Pumpkin-Eater (Pumpkins)

Peter, Peter, pumpkin-eater,
Had a wife but couldn't keep her.
He put her in a pumpkin shell,
And there he kept her very well.

A few halloween jack-o-lanterns, too.
