new fabric . . . boys . . . some towels

Well, hello again.  It seems like the norm will be about one post a month.  I really desire to post more often, it just doesn't happen!  So, I bought some new fabric.  Shocker.  



These last two pictures are fabrics from Hobby Lobby.  LOVE.  Great for my big girl!

And here are a bunch of boy project photos I've been saving up . . .

I did a few shirts for Ethan . . . son of a customer . . .

And I did a few projects for Ethan . . . my nephew . . .

We had specific pants to match, but I don't have photos of them.  Those were all garanimals shirts.  This one was not . . .

This design was an etsy find that someone asked me to recreate . . .

A jonjon for Cooper in the making . . .

Only Cooper's grandmother had sewn it together wrong, so we had to start over! . . .

We decided to add initials . . .

A great way to dress up a basic . . .

And you even get one girl shirt in the post because it was a coordinating brother/sister combo . . .

Love this for older boys or even a mini filled embroidery design on a polo is precious! . . .

And a few simple towels for a customer for gifts . . .

Hopefully, I'll be back soon with all the Christmas stuff I've done!

bags and baby

I've done a lot of bags recently.  First being, a backpack for my own Kindergartener . . .

And then I got to do all of these for a sweet lady in my church and some of her family members . . .

{Ignore that most of the bags are wet from me trying to get the center marks off!} 

I think she got these bags on sale at the Christmas Tree Shops for $1.99 each!!!  I just did the wording, the embroidered designs were already on the bags.

And I did bright pink and turquoise bags for my girls to have as church bags, but apparently didn't take a picture.  They're already dirty now so a picture at this point wouldn't even do them justice. However, I did take a picture of this one I did for one of Evynne's friend's birthday . . .

Again, forgot to take my own pictures, but enjoy some iphone photos of these cute bags . . .

Also from Christmas Tree Shops for $5.99 and $3.99, I believe.  And they are good, sturdy bags.  Not to mention, easy to monogram!

And today we celebrated the upcoming arrival of a friend's first baby.  They did not find out what it is so I had the challenge pleasure of coming up with some cute, gender-neutral pieces! . . .

Since the daddy-to-be is my husband's co-worker as in, they share an office space, we had to do something just to please him . . .

I also just discovered quite a few pictures I haven't posted yet so there will be more coming soon!

OH, and take note, I've been working on updating my applique design pages!  I finally got the embroidery fonts page redone and now you can view all of my fonts.  YAY! {I'm still working on the applique fonts page.}

I've been accumulating pictures of baby items for awhile.  It seems I just do a baby thing or two here and there, but recently I did a pretty big order for a new baby on the way.  So, it seemed like time to post the pics.  New baby also has a big brother and big sister . . .

This onesie is to match something else I did for big brother and big sister too . . .

This onesie was a gift for a friend of mine . . .

New baby's name is Bennett.   You can tell I'm digging the blue seer . . .

 

I think Bennett should be pretty stylin' . . .

 

A basic set I did a while back for a customer.  Sweet and simple . . .

This was for my girls' music teacher Ms. Stephanie.  She is a new grandmother and her grandmother name is "Sassy" . . .

 

This one I did a couple of months ago and had just acquired this font, fishtails.  As you can see from baby Bennett's things, I've used it a lot since I got it! . . .
