We finally have our hands on a hardback copy of the Moomin Craft Book and it’s delightful!

It’s damp and chilly here in York today, but inside we’ve got sunshine. This image, taken from ‘What a Wonderful World’, is now available as a beautiful art print (see link in bio).

Found time this weekend to put some prints in frames. Forget how satisfying it is to see a piece you’ve known for years finally up on the wall and in a frame.

We have badges! Still have stickers to do and then we’re all set for #cheltenhamfestival on Sunday. If you’re in the area come along, we’ll be reading books, singing songs, making rain makers and drawing too! And to make the event extra special we have the wonderful pianist and singer @saracolmanmusic As you can imagine, we’re just a tad excited!

Today it’s a Hopgood takeover @oupchildrens Hop over to their Instagram feed where I’ll be sharing some background insights into the new book. #moonriver #illustration #picturebook #audreyhepburn #johnnymercer #henrymancini #instaart #instabook #oupchildrens

Waiting for ink to dry! Elements for another page of my alphabet book to be published by @oupchildrens next year. I wonder if you can guess which letter of the alphabet this might be! #oupchildrens #ink #picturebook #monochrome #illustration #cactus #camel #instaart #timhopgood #houseofhopgood

So excited here at the House of Hopgood ... only one month to go before the publication of the Moomin Crafts book Wanda has contributed to, published by Macmillan. The book features Moomin inspired crafts, starting with these cute upcycled wool felt slippers, from Tove Jansson’s gorgeous and iconic illustrations. There’s a hot water bottle cover, a draught excluder and a pot stand - amongst other fun projects. A big thank you to Emily Ford at Macmillan to making it happen #tovejansson #moomin #moomincrafts #macmillanpublishers #crafts #handsewing #houseofhopgood #skill #upcycle #felt wool #sewing #applique #colour #color

Only one month to go until publication date ... !
