Busy Busy Busy!

This is for a little rock star!

Another Order! I've been busy!

This matches the nursery. The binky clip has the name in light pink but you can't really see in the picture.

You send me fabric, I will make your gifts!

I had a previous customer send me a bunch of fabric and asked me to make all of this for a friend!

Gift Set!

Here is a set I made last week. I was so excited, I found fabric that matches his nursery!

A few things I've been working on!

I love this fabric. It is my fabric and I think they turned out great! I had a special order and they keep coming! I am going to be very busy this summer!

Etsy Shop back up and running!

I finally have some things made to put up on Etsy! Of course I will still do special orders for anyone but I felt like so many people said they went to my Etsy shop and then contacted me to see if I was still making stuff. I am still making stuff, so just email me if you need anything!

My niece is 1!

Kelsey is having a Minnie Mouse themed birthday party. I decided to make her accessories for the big day!

Bib, Binky Clip and Burp Cloth

Her name on the binky clip.

My sister-in-law showed me a sippy cup leash she uses all the time. I looked online for some tutorials and most of them said that the velcro eventually gives out and the design wasn't the greatest. So I thought I would try this tutorial and see how well they work. I made two and had to keep tightening the velcro to keep the cup from slipping out. I will have to see how well my sister-in-law likes them and let you all know!

I added names to both! I also added a suspender clip to the loop so she could attach it by looping it through the arm of something or attach it to clothing or seat belt.

I filled the sippy cup up with water and threw it to the ground several times. Each time the cup fell out, I took it back to the machine and made a smaller velcro loop. It was trial and error with these cups.

Orders, orders, everywhere!

I think everyone knows I am off now and have time on my hands to sew! I have 7 orders to fill by July!

Most of the orders are from people I gave things to as gifts or past customers! I love repeat customers!

The baby Shower was a success!

I'm just going to post some pics! It has been a busy few weeks!

Cupcakes I made!

I hot glued confetti to toothpicks! They came out great!

All of them on my counter!

Cupcakes on display!

Sugar-Free for the Diabetic Pregnant lady!

Cake and Punch Table!

The Food Table!

My Diaper Cakes!

Table Decorations!

One of the gifts another teacher and I made for one of the honorees!

The ladies with their gifts!

Diaper Cakes for work shower!

One coworker is having a boy and one coworker is having a girl. I made diaper cakes to decorate the gift table. I thought it would be the perfect way to distinguish which table was which. I think they turned out cute!

Baby Shower for work!

We have two teachers expecting. Here is the gift or part of it that I made. My will just help cover the costs of supplies. My teammate has the same machine as I do and is making the nursing cover and diaper case to match. We will add that to the basket and I will add another picture of the completed basket and all the decorations later.

I made 3 burp cloths, 3 bibs and 2 binky clips.

Another Order!

A past customer/friend needed a gift for a friend. I'm so happy she came to me! I think they turned out great!

Binky Clips Galore!

I had a request to make a few binky clips. I decided while I was making them I would go ahead and beef up my inventory. I need to get a few things up on Etsy again. Anyway, here are a few pictures of the ones I made. I still need to add the snaps to them. I think that is the most time consuming part and it makes my hand hurt!

I love orders from past customers!

Here are a few things I made for a past customer. She was hosting a baby shower for a friend today. I hope they were a big hit!

Another Baby Shower!

I have another baby shower to go to next weekend. It is number two and another girl, so I thought I would make some things she could use. I will probably buy some diapers and wipes to go with it.

Two bibs and binky clips with her name on them.

Diaper and Wipes Case and 2 burp cloths.

Baby Jackson is here!

My cousin is the proud new Papa to a beautiful baby boy. They will have a baby shower in a few weeks, as the Momma wanted to wait until he was born. So I've been a busy little seamstress getting my gift ready. I made a diaper and wipes case, binky clips, burp cloths and a nursing cover. My cousin is a firefighter, loves to hunt and his wife loves camo as well.

Christmas Gifts #3 (finally finished!)

What a sense of accomplishment I feel right now! I just finished sewing my last Christmas gift. I have been so busy sewing. Here are a few pictures of all of the things I have made.

I finished making the clutch purses for everyone.
Denim with brown, white and blue.


The inside! Complete with 2 credit card pockets!


Denim with brown and pink.


The inside! Love it!


And the first one I made with better pictures!




Now this I made using a pattern from Sew News magazine. It is essentially a garment bag with pockets. Its purpose??? A wrapping paper organizer! My mom saw this in the magazine and mentioned she might like one. So I decided to try it out. It was frustrating at first, but I'm really happy I figured it out and I think it looks great!


It zips open for more storage inside.


And I wanted to see what it would look like filled up. I kind of wish the pockets were bigger. I feel like the picture in the magazine had more room. Oh well, I think it will work great!


I also finished up with my nieces. I made them a bunch of head bands. The middle one, loves head bands, and the oldest is growing out her bangs. So I thought these would be great to help with that.
