Victoria Stitch after universityĪfter my degree I continued to work on Victoria Stitch in my spare time. This was one of my favourite Victoria Stitch images from the book I created on my degree. I was pleased with this book at the time and I showed it to quite a few publishers, but I was always told that Victoria Stitch was too mean, too adult, too spiky for a children’s picture book. Poor Pink Rabbit! (He is much happier with Isadora Moon now but shh don’t tell Victoria Stitch that!)

You can see she was still quite an angry, spiky, mean character – because that’s just who she was by then. Victoria Stitch evolved over time into this second incarnation. I had cured myself of the pink hair phase (by dying my own hair pink for a while and then getting bored with it) so Victoria Stitch had also got bored of the pink hair!

By that point she had changed quite a bit and grown with me. Three years later, on my degree, I redid my Victoria Stitch book. I ended up writing and illustrating a picture book about her on my foundation course for my final project. She was (and still is) very special to me. So I channelled all these energies into Victoria Stitch and she became like my alter-ego.

She first came into being during my Art Foundation course ten years ago.

That name may sound familiar if you’ve checked out my Blogspot. Victoria Stitch is one of my favourite character I have ever created. The story of Isadora Moon begins with a character called Victoria Stitch. I can’t believe there are now six Isadora Moon books available! The story of Isadora Moon starts about ten years ago! It seems like a good time to retell the story of Isadora Moon and how she came to be. I can’t believe there now are six books in the Isadora Moon series. It’s only four days until Isadora Moon goes on a School Trip is officially out. What is the story of Isadora Moon’s creation?
