Drawing inspiration from the imaginary worlds of children's literature, Simone creates a beautiful sense of whimsy and innocence in her characters. Her work can be seen in many magazines including Mollie Makes, Better Homes and Gardens and Bustle and Sew UK, her sewing patterns are sold around the world and can also be found at MayBlossomStore on Etsy. Simone lives with her husband and four children in Melbourne, Australia.
