Round and Round the Garden: Nursery Rhymes and Songs

Olivia Skelhorne-Gross is an artist and mother living in Hamilton, Ontario. Since 2015, embroidery has been Olivia’s primary artistic medium through which she explores a variety of subject matters, particularly realistic pet portraits and embroidered patterns for clothing. Over the years, Olivia has grown her business through social media, gaining a large and dedicated following of friends and supporters. She has always dreamed of using embroidery to illustrate children’s fiction and was inspired by her two-year-old daughter’s love for singing and reading to create her first book, Round & Round the Garden.
