Home Home's Turtle Pennant is a felt wall hanging designed by Jon Klassen and handmade by his mother, Karen, a single green turtle on a heavy wool felt base. The turtle is hand-cut from felt and hand-sewn onto the base, a low green dome on four short legs, with two eyes at the end of its neck and a small red circle off in one corner like a far-off sun. It has the flat, graphic calm that runs through all of Klassen's work. The sun sits behind the turtle, and the turtle is facing the other way. A dowel is sewn into the top edge, with a string for hanging, so it sits flat against the wall. Each is numbered by hand, though the edition is open rather than limited. 18" x 12"Handmade in Canada A pennant makes a good gift on its own, or alongside one of Jon Klassen's books or greeting cards.

Home Home is a collaboration between Jon Klassen and his mother, Karen Klassen. Jon, an author and illustrator, designs each pennant. Karen makes them by hand. He is in one country and she is in another, and the work moves between them, home to home. The shapes and colours hold the same quiet, graphic character as Jon's illustration work, brought into felt.
