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.

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!

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!

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.

I have been very busy the past 2 weeks!

First off, I received a special order. I whipped these up yesterday. I already had the fabric cut out, so it didn't take very long. I will have to ship these tomorrow.

Last weekend, I started this little project for Christmas presents. My nieces love to play dress up, they love frilly things and they love pink and purple. I used this tutorial. They were super easy and only took about a half hour each from cutting to tying. I used about 3 rolls of pink and 3 rolls of purple tulle.

I have also been working on this gift for Kelsy for the past 3 weekends. I was told she could really use some new bibs, burp cloths and her binky clip I made was looking pretty ratty the last time I saw her. Plus, she is always wearing the same one. A girl has to accessorize you know?

So here are 6 bibs with matching binky clips and burp cloths.

Navy and Red

Black and Hot Pink

Pink Flowers

Pink and Brown Dot

Pink and White

Hot Pink

Target had towels for $1.49 on Black Friday, so I picked up a few for gifts. I decided to make the girls personalized towels as another Christmas gift. I made them all the same, so no one would get upset about what color their name was in!

Up next, I'm working on a wrapping paper holder from Sew News magazine. My mom saw it and really wanted one. I am also making clutches for all the adult women I need a gift for. I'm also making the girls headbands. So stay tuned for more next week!

Another Etsy Order!

I was pleasantly surprised when I received an email stating I had an Etsy sale today! One of my binky clips sold and she wanted a bib. So I made the bib to match the binky clip. They turned out Super Cute!!!

So much to do, no time to do it!

I've been extremely busy with work, family, life etc. I don't think it will ever slow down until Summer! It has been nice to find a little time to sew. I've had a few orders, and a few gifts to make. Here are a few pictures of some of my recent projects.

I had a housewarming party to go to and thought the kids would like their very own towels.

I made 4 burpcloths and 3 binky clips for a gift.

A friend sent me some material and I made her some burp cloths. I had a little extra fabric and made a changing pad with it.

Camo anyone?

So my dad asked me to make a few things for one of the guys that works for him. They are having a little boy and due in Sept. I said, "sure, no problem!" I asked what they were doing the nursery in, or what he wanted. He said "Camo." I said, "great." Not my style but what can I say, they call this guy that works for my dad "Redneck!" I guess camo is very fitting then! I have lots of fabric left over, so if you are interested, let me know!

I made a diaper/wipe case changing pad. 2 binky clips, and 4 burp cloths.

A little personality!

I've been busy personalizing some things with names!

More binky clips!

I made a few more clips. My sister-in-law actually asked if I could embroider a name on them. She wanted a few with a name for the church nursery. I thought it was a great idea and it worked out great. But I forgot to take a picture! I will try to get a picture tomorrow when I go back over to see them.

I can embroider a name on the following clips.

Binky Clips and a Bib Clip

Here is a bib clip. You can use this to clip a paper towel or dish towel and use it has a bib. Or you can use it to clip a blanket around you while you are breastfeeding.

I used 2 suspender clips, 12 inched of ribbon, 2 buttons and around 10 inches of thing ribbon. I sewed the suspender clips to the wide ribbon making sure the decrative side is facing up. I then sewed down the thing ribbon perpendicular to the wide ribbon. Burning the edges so they don't fray. Thread the ribbon through the button holes and tie.

Binky Clips: I used the same process as above on the one end. The other end I sewed a nice edge, then added a snap.
