I have been slacking on publishing new things I've been working on, sorry! I really can't believe just how busy I am and I know it's because people are sending their friend's my name- so THANK YOU!!! I just feel so lucky that my little hobby of sewing baby/ kiddie things is taking on a life of it's own. Here are a few new designs. Sorry they are so dark... again photography is not my strong suit. I'll leave that to Sunday (check out her site!)

I made a special birthday bib for a friend's son. His invitations were green and blue with a cupcake... I think it turned out fairly well.... Larger bibs like this with a custom applique are $12
Another bunny tee!I'm trying something new... a hooded towel for a toddler. It's a full size bath towel, so it's probably too big for a baby, but perfect for when your child starts to outgrow their bath towel. I added a cute strip of fabric to this one and monogrammed the side. I think the name would also be cute on the hood. I'm thinking $20.... Let me know what you think about these :-) Thanks to my cute model Braden!Twins! Emma and Ella. These have a sweet pink and green dot or a pink/ green microcheck. I really love the "scroll" appliqued on a shirt with a name....
What a sweet St. Patrick's Day tee...
I think this football design will be so sweet this fall....

Another reversible cupcake dress for a birthday girl!I really like this new stripe-y minky fleece- it's sooo soft for bibs or changing pads, and the sock monkeys? They are always a favorite!

Hopefully this spring I'll be adding some gifts for "Mommy's friends" kitchen and hand towels, koozies, mousepads, etc- just fun little gifts for you to pick up for friends as housewarming or small birthday gifts. I mean, come on, who doesn't "need" a monogrammed koozie for the springtime????

New designs

I have added a ton of new designs...Yeah! Some were suggestions of things people saw at Planet Applique, and others are ones I've had and just hadn't used yet. I can't decide what's my new favorite... I love when people ask for a design, don't hesitate :-) I think some of these would be cute in the larger size on a beach towel, or even on a bathroom towel with a name underneath...maybe I'll make some samples this weekend...

The first two are called "Scrolls"- there's fabric appliqued on and then monogram on top. So fun on a onesie or a tee!



This is a plain tee that I used an applique called "Baby Bet"- it's all lowercase and the letters are about 1.5 in tall. I'm trying to make William some "big boy" outfits for the summer- cute shorts and matching tees. I have visions of potty training...I can dream he'll be ready, right? :-) I may start selling shorts- let me know what you think about them.
A new Easter design....
Another tee design- the shark is adorable with the gray gingham underbelly... It matches blue and green check shorts, that's why his name's in green....
A good friend from Windy Gap asked me to make a dress for her daughter's first birthday- it reverses to a pink and white strip with her name in hot pink, and of course I had to do a matching bib to protect the dress from cake time.
I am in love with this alligator. This is what I think I'll put on a towel first. he'd be so cute with hot pink spines!

Isn't this monkey sweet??? How can you not love the gingham feet?This golf cart onesie was a suggestion- the dad's a golf pro. It's hard to tell from the picture, but I must've been channelling my inner Payne Stewart- it's all different colors of ginghams and plaids.The chick is on a pin stripe jonjon for Easter and reverses to a blue plaid with a monogram.
I made this for a student's sister. She's a teen mom and doesn't even have a nursery for the baby- I think all babies deserve sweet things. Hopefully she will spit up joyfully on this burpcloth!And lastly, I just couldn't resist this sweet picture of my little William..... :-)
