Luggage tags

A customer of mine bought her daughter luggage for Christmas and asked if I had any cute luggage tag ideas. Here is what I came up with...



Her name and address are concealed inside the tag so people passing by can not read her info. You have to open it up to see it.

End of the season sale!

Can you believe it is almost Christmas? I have a very limited number of keychains left in stock. I will be selling these for $3/each. They are normally $5. Let me know if you would like any of them for stockings, teachers gifts and such.

One last Thanksgiving post

Here is another outfit I made for Caroline's first Thanksgiving. The bib is reversable and is pink with her name monogrammed on it. The ribbons on the side serve 2 purposes. On the turkey side it is his feathers (or hers since she is pink) and also Caroline loves to play with tags.

ps...this was taken with my 9 y/o's camera. Our wonderful Canon Rebel is being serviced. :(

Happy Birthday Parker!

Don't you love this fabric? I do! Bought it in the girl version (pinks and oranges) to make my sweet Caroline one for her birthday too.

Can Coozies

Wouldn't these cute coozies make a much better stocking stuffer than a new toothbrush? What about teachers gifts? Nothing says, "I took the time to pick out that special gift for you" like a personalized/monogrammed item. While you are at it get one for yourself too.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Here is a t-shirt dress I made this morning while my little model took her nap. I love my new serger!

Up close of the fabric. Got it at Joanns over the summer. Got to love thinking about the holidays when it is 103 outside.

My sweet girl (10 months old!).

hand embroidered wool hair barrett by Turtlebees...so cute right!

I know this isn't about sewing but...

Guess how much I paid for these 4 bottles of shampoo... (look under the picture)...

$0.59...yup, that is it! 59 cents!

I LOVE COUPONS!

Things I made for my girls room

For Emily I made the curtain, bedskirt and headboard. You can't see it but the headboard is monogrammed with her name.

For Caroline I recovered a rocker and ottoman in pink chennile.

I also made matching pink chenille curtains for the french doors going into her nursery.

I made these pillow cases and pillow invitations for Emily's 8th birthday slumber party.

I thought I'd start by sharing some of the things I've made and/or monogrammed in the past few years.

New to blogging

Well, it is time I took the next step in my internet filled life. Here is my new blog. I hope to get the hang of things quickly and share all that is my monogramming/embroidery/sewing life.
