Feeling incredibly honored to have partnered with Historic St. Mary’s City on such a meaningful and adorable project! 🐮✨

I had the absolute joy of creating custom handmade Red Devon cow plushies for their newest additions, Jumbles & Rosie — two living pieces of colonial history. This collaboration brought so much heart to life, from honoring agriculture’s role in early America to seeing little ones light up while hugging their new crochet cows. 💛

This project means the world to me — not just as a maker, but as someone who believes in the magic of preserving history in creative, hands-on ways.

Huge thank you to the team at HSMC for trusting Amos’s Cozy Creations with this special moment. Your support helps keep handmade art and heritage alive 🧶🧡

📸 Be sure to check out their sponsorship program & meet the herd!
