I have been busy traveling and teaching the last few weeks (hi NY and NC!) and I had so many people say “Oh, if I knew you were going to be here I would have brought my book for you to sign.” (Which is awesome and super flattering. Makes a girl feel loved.) Then I had a light-bulb-moment. I could make bookplates to sign and then I could send them to you, no matter where you are (and you don’t have to remember to bring your book)! This little toucan made an appearance in our Spoonflower Handbook Master Class this weekend, so he seemed like the perfect character to star on this book plate.
If you have a Spoonflower Handbook and you would like a hand-signed bookplate, just send me an email (beckarahn at gmail dot com) and I will mail it to you. I will also bring them along to the events I have coming up (WMQFA University Days, Shepherd’s Harvest) and you can just ask me for one. They are printed on Spoonflower’s woven wallpaper, which is peel-and-stick, so you can stick it right in your book when you get it. I did a limited run of these, so they are first-come-first-served.
I have many things to tell you about classes and events near-and-far, but that will have to wait for another day.
