Mother Goose Swap


For the Mother Goose swap executed by Popsicles and Lollipops we were to create something dedicated to our favorite nursery rhyme.



After days of thinking about it and reading every Mother Goose book I could find, I finally decided upon 'Mary had a little lamb'.


Mary is just way too cool.



I love animals, well, cats and dogs. I was never a horse person but a monkey would have been ok.


Now, she had her very own lamb that followed her around.


Just think of all the cool things she could sew, knit and felt out of all that wool!



(check out her new shoes)



And she always had really cute clothes.



So today Mary, her lamb, and the rest of the swap stuff went to live with

I Poked A Badger With A Spoon!

How cute is that name?


Hope she likes it............
