I am attaching a picture of your Mouse King that I ordered from you last summer or fall to make for my daughter that collects nutcrackers and I paint two a year for her! I got it done in time for Christmas! She has quite a collections now! I enjoyed painting the Mouse King and your directions were easy to follow. Thank you so much."

"I really have had an enjoyable paint & pencil time. This technique is fun and easy. It kept me focused until I finished the work. It's a fun-easy way to introduce these two mediums into decorative painting.... did I repeat fun and easy? Each tip in the pattern packet is worth it!"

"Hi Erika,
I just received your newsletter. I painted 4 of the cat nutcrackers one Christmas. One for each of our children and one for me. I love mine so much I keep it out all year. They were fun to paint and we all have cats. I don't know if this was a pattern packet but I painted it from Paintworks I believe. I have four of the mouse nutcrackers started but had to pack them up for now because we will be moving. I can wait to paint those."

"Hello: Just wanted to drop you a line and tell you that I bought your pattern "Green Eyes" at the SDP convention in May. I finished it and entered it in the Kansas State Fair and won a second place on it. I just love it and have had many comments on the piece. It was a nice pattern and I hope to get more from you." Sincerely - Nancy from Derby, Kansas Green Eyes Pattern >> |

"Dear Erika,
We have a yearly bazaar for our sick and retired sisters each year. This year your Nativity Puzzle was a big success. Our little group consists of nine sisters ranging in age from 66 to 85. One of our sisters did the baseocat, another the painting, and another the finishing. We made six and they turned out really nice, if I must say so myself! We sold one to an older mother who had her first child last December. She was so excited that her little boy could hold the figures and place them in the manger and she could tell the "story". Another set was bought by the principal of the "The Sister's School", which is a school for the inner city children, and the other three were purchased by an alumni. Hope this little bit of information warms you heart as it did mine."
