Spring "Break"

So Spring "Break" 2010 has come and gone for me.... I told everyone I had the week off and I'd "just sew it then", hmmm, no break, but it was so fun to make so much stuff. There will be lots of cute babies from NY to CA to AL...and of course one special baby right here in TN- mine! Even William got a few new things this week! Here's a sample of what I've been up to this week! Busy girl!

Bubbles for baby Leah! Hurry up and get to Mobile, baby James, Katie and Anna want to have a playdate!

A special order outfit...This is a swing top that's gathered under the arms with matching bloomers... they take a little longer to make FYI if you want to order one. They are super sweet on a baby.

Lilah's ready for the Farmer's Market...

Onesies for baby Makenna and friends....

lime green and hot pink flip flops... I hope Abigail is ready for summer :-)

Channeling my inner Citadel cadet...if I had been a boy:-) steel gray gingham and blue- L-O-V-E

baby Adam is set to spit up.

I forgot how sweet bubbles for boys are when they're a size 3mo! Thanks Harlan and Summer....

tooo adorable... pink seersucker and flipflops- this screams summer to me!!!! Where's my sunscreen?

Loving this butterfly applique! A cute seersucker bubble- Thanks Mary Kent!!!

I was just told "pink and girly"... love this set!

Here's the bib... Reverses to pink poodles..ahhhh!

I still heart this alligator and love when people want him ... He was a lime green microcheck.

Twins! I love twin gifts! It's so fun to coordinate, but not make it too matchy matchy.

Excuse the avocado on the shirt...how do you like the new dump truck? He said "yeeeessss" when he saw it. From a 20mo I think that means yeah!

Three sweet golf tees. They also had matching shorts :-) Special order....

See- so cute right??? Thanks Reisha! Great fabric! Baby William needs some now!

Happy first birthday Max! Another special order :-)

A chocolate gingham lab- so adorable!

Baby Chesson won this a few weeks ago in a "giveaway." I should do another game...they're fun!

One of my favorite tee designs...

There you have it SB2010.... William was a champ to take such good naps all week and let mama sew! Thanks again to all of you who are passing on my info and helping me grow my little sewing business!!!! It is more than I could have ever imagined!

Beach towels

How cute are these? A friend bought some inexpensive beach towels and asked me to applique and monogram them for Easter baskets- I think they turned out adorable!

The gators are striped, polka dots, and a micro check- pretty cute I thought!

I'm also doing hoodie towels for bigger kids too ($20) Click here to see an example....

Another baby gift...the brown fabric was baby corduroy so it was super soft!

I thought these tees turned out really well. The mom had blue pants with a gingham trim to match the "S" shirt and pants with little purple bunnies to match the pink bunny tee...fun!

I have a few orders for jonjons, bubbles and dresses to do this weekend. I love making the baby stuff, but miss sewing "clothes" so I'm excited to do these this weekend :-)

This must be "baby shower season"...What a busy, busy sewing weekend. After being knocked out by a massive sinus infection I am finally back in the land of the living...or at least working hard and sewing a lot! Here are a few of the multiple baby gifts I made. I am LOVING the new design with the circle and lower case letter- luckily I don't believe any of these folks know each other so they won't know that I made a lot of the same things this weekend :-)

The back of the Graham bib reversed to green polka dots! The back of the Louisa bib was the pink flowers...

I love these with a reversible bib to coordinate with the burp cloth. blue and green seems to be pretty popular these days- I bought lots of cute green and blue dot ribbon to tie all these boy gifts up :-)

Could this bunny be any cuter???

I heart you bunny! A tee to help a new big sis feel special too :-) I just love this little Jack Russell Terrier- he's in corduroy! One word.... TWINS! I love doing Twin sets!

A baby gift for me to give at a shower for a co-worker tomorrow...along with a pack of Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive- I loved how the little stripe turned colors when they were wet...You know new moms can't figure that out- they're too tired! And those diapers are sooo tiny compared to the size 6 my 19 mo old wears now!!!

This is on the back of a hoodie sweatshirt... so cute for a little boy!

More baby gifts

I made several burp cloths for someone at work last night and thought these new designs looked so cute. Check out the crab...He'd be cute in red gingham too....

I still love this alligator. I've gotten several orders for beach towels with this little guy on them.

This is just a quick shot to show you how ADORABLE this elephant fabric is.... I just love it! I have some more if you want to order something with it/ out of it. Just let me know. I'll probably stop taking orders for Easter outfits next Wed 3/24 - so be sure to email me if you need something!

Keep checking back- I think I've got a cute new applique for t-shirts with a single lower case letter and a name through the middle or under the letter- should be pretty cute :-)

I have been slacking on publishing new things I've been working on, sorry! I really can't believe just how busy I am and I know it's because people are sending their friend's my name- so THANK YOU!!! I just feel so lucky that my little hobby of sewing baby/ kiddie things is taking on a life of it's own. Here are a few new designs. Sorry they are so dark... again photography is not my strong suit. I'll leave that to Sunday (check out her site!)

I made a special birthday bib for a friend's son. His invitations were green and blue with a cupcake... I think it turned out fairly well.... Larger bibs like this with a custom applique are $12

Another bunny tee!I'm trying something new... a hooded towel for a toddler. It's a full size bath towel, so it's probably too big for a baby, but perfect for when your child starts to outgrow their bath towel. I added a cute strip of fabric to this one and monogrammed the side. I think the name would also be cute on the hood. I'm thinking $20.... Let me know what you think about these :-) Thanks to my cute model Braden!Twins! Emma and Ella. These have a sweet pink and green dot or a pink/ green microcheck. I really love the "scroll" appliqued on a shirt with a name....

What a sweet St. Patrick's Day tee...

I think this football design will be so sweet this fall....

Another reversible cupcake dress for a birthday girl!I really like this new stripe-y minky fleece- it's sooo soft for bibs or changing pads, and the sock monkeys? They are always a favorite!

Hopefully this spring I'll be adding some gifts for "Mommy's friends" kitchen and hand towels, koozies, mousepads, etc- just fun little gifts for you to pick up for friends as housewarming or small birthday gifts. I mean, come on, who doesn't "need" a monogrammed koozie for the springtime????
