A set with typical Australian animals like kangaroo or koala would be awesome!
Your fandom sets are my favorites! More Harry Potter, more Doctor Who… I would love Game of Thrones and Outlander too!

Thank you for your beautiful work!
I would love to see another doodle set about dogs. Something like a dog park, People going out for a walk, playing frisbee with there dog, a dustbin for the dog poop, more trees, a dog peeing on something (street light or something 🙂 )

Hey,
I think a “Einschulung”-set would be great. In Germany we do celebrate a childs first day of school with family and friends and there are special happinings in the primary school as well. Most important for many children is a candy cone, a special kind of gift that is filled with little surprises and sweets.
Would love doodle packs from each state in the US! We have visited each state and I want to do scrap pages about each one. Thanks!

I’d loved to have the whole set of family members up to grandpa and grandma, aunt, uncle,….

Spartan race style with mud, rocks, walls, ropes, fire, weighted bags, spartan medal, headband, etc
A paper doll set, male and female, with various outfits to mix and match. Shoes, hats, glasses, socks, slacks, shirts, tops…

Dress-up/Pretend?
I will be honest- I didn’t read ALL the comments to see if this was suggested. But a few weeks ago I searched the store for a Basketball related kit. Our grandson (age 5) has become quite the baller- and makes hoops regularly- so that would be fun to have a kit to use to record all those new skills! THANKS and CONGRATULATIONS on so many years!!!!

daycare or toddler doodles – I’m a childcare provider with young children of my own and would love and INDOOR play set of doodles.

trains please. I’ve got lots of photos of the children visiting steam trains, going to Thomas Land, and playing with train sets.
I love Doggie Days and My Kind of Dog. Maybe you can illustrate a school package for a dogclass (the name of my class)? Many teachers in Germany has this pet as a mascot . For example – Rules for behauvior in school (whisper, helping each other, give a sign, when you want to say somehting)
I absolutely love the A to Z set as well as the Little School. I follow you on Instagram and love your Harry Potter Journal Designs. So I think a Harry Potter doodle would be the best thing ever. <3
Book fairies-little sprites with book page wings who reward boys and girls who read with books and encouraging words to read more.
I’d love maybe some theme park or fair type doodles.. rides, foods, etc.
I have quickly perused the other comments and yes to a Texas-themed with many of our state obsessions! What I’d also love is a Seniors kit (humorous is fine!), an early 70’s DISCO-themed kit, and hows about a Genealogy kit??? Or an American History kit – I am a passionate reader of it and my 3 most-admired Americans are Geo. Washington, Sam Houston, and Martin Luther King, one for each American century! Thanks for reading/considering! xoxo

Kate, I’d love a package of “golden girls” (those who have entered their senior years with some gray in their hair and some extra ponds on their hips). They should be fun loving free spirited types who wear interesting ” get ups” possibly with a few hats and some comfortable shoes. And, of course some red and purple along with a comfortable well worn bathrobe. Flannel pjs for winter and a mumu in a big floral print for summer. Of course they would need some accessories as well as coffee and chocolate. Oh, and don’t forget some glasses. Hee…hee
Some more animals other than the pets I suggested earlier would be great: kangaroos, koalas, Panda, Flamingo, kiwi, Penguin, and I would love more elephant clipart 😀
Elephants sound good! I love them <3
For social studies I would love some sights of the world like the pyramids, Eiffel Tower, Brandenburg Gate, and whatever else you can come up with 🙂 I know you already did some like the Big Ben and more would be awesome!

I would love a set of body parts, including all the parts you can think of like arms, legs, fingers, and so on.
I would love another science set- looking for themes for my units, ecosystems, matter, space, earth’s spheres! Love all your art!
Australian animals or Australian Doodle in general
I’d love to see some kids in different costumes – like your Halloween kids! Just kids dressed up in all sorts of costumes. Thanks!
I’m branching out this year and giving you a new idea. SUSHI! I can just imagine the best little sushi platters. You would make them so perfect.

I am a teacher and I love your “Wizardry†kit. I would love some more stuff to wizardry and especially Hogwarts and the characters. It would be great! 🙂
Another idea, Madagascar animals – lemurs are so cute. I love your animal doodles.
I would love an all Aussie (Australian) animal kit – koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, platypus, dingoes, etc.
I would love to have a cute doodle set with a Christian theme – not all crosses and whatnot, but more messages about being kind, loving others, looking for the good in people, helping your neighbor in need, etc. I’m thinking like a child helping another child, or a person raking the yard of an elderly neighbor who’s looking at them out the window and smiling. Stuff like that.
I know you have a “Wizardry” kit but having seen your instagram posts of your weekly planner Harry Potter spreads, I’d love to see a pack of HP characters – Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Luna, Dumbledore, Hagrid, the Weasleys, Snape, McGonagall, etc. You’re so talented… I want to celebrate HP love too!

My youngest son is an exchange student in Belgium this year (Charlerois, outside of Brussels), and I would love Belgian themed art. But he has also traveled to the Netherlands, to Paris and France, Germany, Luxembourg, Austria, and will be traveling to Slovenia, Venice, and Iceland at a minimum before he comes home later this summer, so a European themed pack would be lovely as well. I would love to be able to make welcome-home party favors with significant Belgian or European icons from his trip. Have loved your art for so long! (I once made favors with your Halloween Primitives and Day of the Dead art and they were so gorgeous! Wish I had taken pictures!)
Congrats on your anniversary! I would love to see a river doodle pack.
Lock and Dam, pontoon, fishing, bald eagles, swimming, water toys, cabin life, sand, cooler of beverages, boating hat, etc.
