Thanks so much Donna! I want to try and start creating my own characters too, I think I just need to let myself doodle. I imagine all these little animal characters, in outfits, living their lives!You do the cutest characters - and calligraphy too! Very nice work.
I'm also going to make cards of the crochet I do to go with them. My "creative spark" has been ignited here! 

the plan is to make a set of a card and crochet toy to match ..
but maybe I could make my own superhero animal crochet and picture.. mmm
food for thought. Thank you so much for the encouragement!!! 
.. that is you. Get to it.I want to try and start creating my own characters too, I think I just need to let myself doodle.
