spring has sprung . . .

and around here, it already feels like summer! So, it's time to kick it in to high-gear and get the short sleeves done!!!



Love this design I found to match this skirt from Chez Ami. This one is for a friend, but Evynne has one too and I love the way it turned out!







A painting birthday party shirt . . .



Coordinating dresses for twins.





And a few things for my girls . . .

This one goes with some capris my mom made out of the fabric that's in the "E".

You gotta love it when you find a $7 dress at Walmart and can make it cute . . .

It is adorable on her too!

I got a few garanimals shirts at Walmart, too. This one I made to go with these knit Hannah Anderson capris I found at a consignment sale . . .

These are going with lime bottoms . . .



Love. These.

And the last is another Walmart shirt from the "big girls" section. Tear. My big girl is getting SO big. This is going with some little yellow knit shorts from Gymboree. I think that made the whole outfit like $7 since I got them at the outlet at the end of the season. Yahoo! . . .

Kelly's Kids and Cooper

Recently, I did a few Kelly's Kids things for one of my customers. The patches were already on these shirts, but I added the initials to them . . .

I also just added initials to these Kelly's Kids dresses . . .

And a name on this appliqued top . . .

And I've done a bunch of things for Cooper lately {the grandson of a sweet friend} . . .

I suggested adding red buttons to the center of the wheels on this dumptruck and she did. It looked super-cute that way!

Cooper's grandmother sews, so he has pants to go with all of these tops. I thought this choo choo turned out pretty cute to go with his black/white check pants! . . .



And this sweet varsity applique font is really one of my favorites . . .



And this is the beginnings of his reversible birthday longall . . .



Happy Birthday Cooper!

And just a random project, but it was for my Kelly's Kids rep so it sort of fits . . .



I have so many more pictures to get posted soon!

new year. new babies. new fabric.

So, it seems like it's been awhile since I've had a lot of orders for baby gifts, but apparently, the new year is a time for showers. I've done several burp cloths lately.



I love this little fancier girly one I did. Except for that it is off-center. And I'm a perfectionist. Even if it is just for a baby to throw up all over. I'm having trouble in my 4x4 hoop because the design usually can't be moved around at all because it maxes out the space. I think my needle may be off-center because no matter how much I work to get the item centered in the hoop, it is always off. I need to get it checked out.

A few pairs of bloomers for a third girl in the family of one of Evynne's friend's.

And I hit Thimbles today for 2 spools of thread and 2 fabrics. This is what I got in addition to my list . . .

I've said it time and time again. I have a problem.

Is anyone else loving this fabric as much as me?! . . .

How precious would this be for a skirt or capris with a turquoise shirt for the spring/summer?! I love you Fabric Finders Fabric.
