More birthday fun!

Brown and Green Banner

2010-11-03T11:06:00.000-05:00

Here's another banner I made for a baby shower! The baby's nursery is brown and green so I think this will look SO cute hanging up--not to mention how cute it looked as a shower decoration!

2010-11-02T11:11:00.000-05:00

I've been really busy with orders lately, but I keep forgetting to take pictures before I ship them off! Here are just a few of my recent orders that I've actually taken pics of!

A new toy!

2010-08-26T16:17:00.003-05:00

Thanks to an outrageous sale at Joann, I am the owner of a Cricut machine! I made my very first birthday banner last week!

I can make these to fit any color scheme also! These are more affordable (and easier to make!) than my fabric banners! Prices will depend on number of letters. Contact me for more info!

new appliques

2010-08-26T16:06:00.001-05:00

New applique font--I generally like do names with 6 or less letters with these types of fonts. But email me if you have a longer name, and I'll see what I can do.

2010-08-22T13:08:00.002-05:00

2010-08-15T23:26:00.004-05:00

I will be taking a short break from taking orders in a couple of weeks. We are about to put our house on the market, so I'm going to be cleaning, organizing, and cleaning some more in my spare time! I'll probably only take a few weeks off, but get your orders in soon if you will be needing them during the month of September!

2010-05-28T13:31:00.001-05:00

I am taking new orders!!

I will only be taking orders for the next few weeks (I want to enjoy the holiday season with Luke and my husband and not be stuck in front of my machine!) so get your orders in! There are some items in my store that I will not be able to do because the time involved, but I'll let you know when you email me.

If you are thinking of holiday gifts, I've got SO many cute things! My favorite gifts are my cosmetic bags (just fill them fun bath things or lipgloss and you've got the perfect gift!), kitchen towels, and coffee mugs! For children and babies, I love giving sippy cups, sleepers, and bibs.

2009-11-14T21:29:00.000-06:00

I will not be taking any new orders for a couple of weeks. I am completely swamped with orders right now. I'll let you know when I'm taking orders again! Thanks! Andrea

Pricing Change:

Applique/name on shirt you send me: $14

I love it when you send me shirts to embroider, but because of the time it takes to put appliques/names on shirts I've had to raise the price. If I already have your shirts, this price change will not affect you! There's no price change in shirts that I provide.

Meet a special family, the Kinards. Eric left for Iraq last week, and he'll be gone for a year. I can't even imagine how hard this is for them. I made this little romper for Marissa to wear the day she said goodbye to daddy.

Amy, Marissa, and Eric

Kinards, thank you for the sacrafices you make every day for our country! You are in my thoughts and prayers!

2009-08-30T05:19:00.002-05:00

Two of my favorite models--Colt and Mason (they're my best friends sweet little boys!)

Both mommies gave me the boys' shorts to make a matching shirt for them.

Carson's Elmo birthday party!Check out that awesome cake!

Henley's birthday party

I also made the birthday bib for her last year!

Here's cute little Charlie on his beach trip!

Here's Colt again in another of my creations! And that's my sweet little Luke with him--and can you believe that my son has absolutely no monograms on him?!! Something is seriously wrong here!
Okay so I had to post a picture of Luke in something I did for him! I added this new "round monogram font" to his jon jon. I really like this new monogram font for boys!

I always love it when my clients send me pics of their child wearing something I made for them! Feel free to email me any pictures you have, and I'll post them on the blog!

2009-08-27T01:17:00.002-05:00

2009-05-28T14:04:00.000-05:00

New fabrics

2009-05-11T15:34:00.005-05:00

I finally was able to take a picture of my new fabrics, but I haven't been able to number them just yet. I only have a very limited supply of some of these fabrics and once they're gone, they're usually gone for good. And believe it or not, there are still some fabrics that I haven't taken a picture of, so if there is a color scheme you're looking for, just let me know!

Birthday bib and hat

2009-05-11T04:50:00.007-05:00

I just made this birthday set for my best friend's baby boy who was turning one! I made the hat and bib to match the color scheme of his party! And both of them looked SOOO cute on him! I can customize the hat and bib to match any theme or color scheme--just ask!

The party hat is the standard party hat size and has ribbons attached so you can tie the hat under their chin. For a girl party hat, I can add a feathery boa around the base! Also, I can put just about anything on the hat--an initial (shown), an applique number, a cupcake. We decided to put an initial on this hat so he can wear it at future birthdays!

Birthday hat: $23

Mason Birthday bib: $15

2009-05-05T11:34:00.005-05:00

I love these new onesie/bib sets I just did! The bibs are the perfect size for younger babies!

Not sure why this picture is sideways--blogger keeps doing that!

I made this little romper for a little girl whose daddy is being deployed in a few months.

More cross towels!

I'm back!

2009-04-15T06:29:00.007-05:00

I am happy to announce that I am taking orders again! It took me a while to get into the groove of things as a new mother! Here are some of the things I've been working on the past week or two!

Kitchen towels:

This is a new kitchen towel I am doing. The fabric is sewn on a waffle weave towel. This one isn't monogrammed--if you are anything like me, I have TOO MUCH stuff in my house with our monogram on it (can't imagine why!) so these towels with add a punch of color to your kitchen. I am working on some more color schemes right now, so stay tuned! Email me if you have a particular color scheme you are looking for! I have a ton of fabrics!

Bibs:

I love these new fabric bibs I'm making! I've already made 6 of them for Luke! You can order these with or without a monogram. I can also make a matching burp cloth for the perfect set! And of course I can use any of my fabrics! These bibs are backed with a really soft minky dot fabric. The bibs pictures are smaller--perfect for babies 0-6 months! I also have another size that would be perfect for older babies and toddlers.

My friend, Carrie, sent me all of Colt's summer shorts for me to make matching shirts. He's going to be one good looking kid this summer! Here's what I came up with! (sorry for the terrible pictures! I was trying to get them taken while Luke was in his swing--and he hates being in his swing for very long!)

2009-03-01T18:30:00.010-06:00

I made these cross shirts/tanks for my friends for Christmas! These are some of my newest fabrics that I picked up when we were in Texas! They look adorable on the tanks!

More kitchen towels!

The price of these kitchen towels (with the whole last name) varies based on number of letters in your last name.

These have definitely been one of the most popular items in my store! They make such great gifts!

I made these next few things for Luke. I know it's crazy that I didn't personalize them with his name! I had to have a few things that didn't say his name on them!

Fabric panel burp cloths--I really like these not being personalized because they can be reused for the next little one in the family!

Some of my newest orders

2008-10-18T20:35:00.010-05:00

This is a new cross applique that I have now! I can put either cross on a shirt or kitchen towel. I also just made the cutest matching mother/daughter cross shirts!

Here are some pictures of things I've been working on! Stay tuned for MORE pictures-I'm making new things everyday!

This is a new Thanksgiving kitchen towel I can make-$10.

Fun for a black and red kitchen!

Enclosure cards and business cards!

I actually made the baby and wedding closure cards back in the Spring out of necessity because of all the showers I was going to--I couldn't afford to buy $5 cards for each one, so I just attached one of these enclosure cards to the gift-cheap and adorable!
(Not sure why the chapter and verse are left off of this one card! Oops!)

I made these business cards for my best friend's mom who is selling her beautiful photographs and photo notecards (check her out kaykards.blogspot.com).

I've posted this bib and burp set before, but this time I made a matching nightlight! I just got this pink and brown gingham fabric!

This was for a baby whose mommy doesn't like pink, so she is decorating her nursery in pbkids yellow and black bedding! I like the uniqueness of it!

Monogrammed bibs and shirts

2008-10-14T20:54:00.003-05:00

Here's a couple of orders I made last week. I love the little airplane applique!

Personalized Halloween Towel

2008-10-05T16:15:00.003-05:00

I made this for one of my best friends as a hostess gift! Now I just need to make one for myself!

VOTE!

2008-10-05T16:11:00.004-05:00

For the little Republican in your family! I also have the Democratic donkey!
This design can be put on just about anything--shirt, onesie, bib, burp, etc...
I think this is the first design I've made that my husband has actually been excited about--I just had to make this for our little baby on the way--even though he can't wear it until next year!

Cross shirts!

2008-10-04T11:35:00.005-05:00

Look at these beautiful models!!

I have seen shirts like these at different places online, and I made one for myself last year because I thought they were SO cute! Then one of my best friends asked me to make one for some of the girls in her family! So here's the ones I made for my friend, Carrie. These make such great gifts too! And you can choose from any of my cute fabrics!

Personalized nightlights!

2008-10-04T11:31:00.003-05:00

I made this nightlight for a customer to match this baby bedding! How cute is that baby bedding too?!

More new items!

2008-10-04T11:21:00.008-05:00

I love this new little bib and burp set for baby Emma. This is also one of my new fabrics!

Black tote bag with matching burp cloth

Here are some of the shirts I made for Colt for the fall!

Lingerie bag and personalized notecards

Off to school!

2008-09-14T20:44:00.003-05:00

Here's a picture of sweet little Colt on his first day of "school"! I monogrammed the shirt and the lunchbox for one of my bestest friends, Carrie! I don't have any more of the lunchboxes, but I will keep my eyes and ears open for more!
