Last night after viewing these gorgeous vintage blocks via Deb, a couple of hours later( when I was trying to go to sleep) I suddenly got very excited about the idea of doing my own Animal Alpabet cards/drawings. Thinking through the alpabet my mind racing with words of not just animals beginning with each letter , and I found myself suddenly sidetracked by Ukuleles and Wonky, nude and Oops and other such great words. It's funny how I almost get inspired or excited out something, you know the sort of crazy frenzy that keeps you awake all night.
And the pictures in my head of bears and creatures doing things starting with each letter were far more vivid and exciting to me, than trying to animal to fit each letter, when words were flowing when I had more freedom.
I know it's not the most original idea, but I'm excited, because then this morning I thought this could be my first picture book or zine in the works. And so I had to share it with my peeps. Because I needed to, you know?
( oh yes and above is my (failed) attempt at drawing an alpaca)
Hope you are keeping dry on this cold rainey Friday xo

I know that feeling of being unable to sleep all to well... I am excited to see what it looks like- perfect for your sisters new bub!
yay Jess, that sounds like the perfect thing to be excited about.
looking forward to seeing your developments & great drawings.

sounds like a very fun alphabet!
oh no, now I have llamas on the brain....I wonder if you could crochet a llama, after the alphabet is done of course.
aw he's not a failed alpaca! I got excited as my slow internet connection slowly revealed his cute face, then his sweet cottonwooly body! This book/zine idea is wonderful Jess, I look forward to seeing what you do with it : )
That sounds brilliant Jess! And getting it down on paper is so good - can't wait to see this evolve.xx
As an alpaca-lover I can tell you now it most certainly does look like one! Its so cute!!
I love your idea. Can't wait to see more. x
Totally exciting! Isn't that the best feeling when you can't sleep due to inspiration over-load... so much better than the binary alternative.
I absolutely adore your idea... and I think your alpaca is cute.
