Baby Gowns

I volunteered (and was strongly encouraged...love you mom) to sew Christmas pajamas for all my mom's grandkids...I'm nowhere near close to being done, but last week I started with the youngest in our family. My brother's wife just had twin boys so we got knit gowns for them. After I finished the super cute applique, I decided that it needed a "little" something....and I LOVE how it turned out. I added tiny rickrack to the top. I'm sure this has been done by someone before, but I love my craftiness:)

I mentioned them to two people who needed baby gifts and they took me up on it. So, I ordered several (it's more like a lot) if anyone needs a gown.

Monag White Gowns

Applique or Monogram

Rickrack color options: lime green, grass green, baby blue, red, light pink, hot pink, yellow

Oh, and don't you love my clothesline:) I thought taking my pictures with more natural light would be nice (plus I'm tired of seeing my armoire in every shot). I have an old door and would love to hang twine from it, but I'm not sure that my husband is ok with an old door sitting in our backyard indefinitely:)

One last pictures....here's a little gift set someone ordered. It's shipping out on Monday:) It's one of my favorites I've done so far! LOVE the whale!

Holiday Outfits - Boy

I just finished and mailed these two outfits for a little boy. When the mom dropped off the fabric she said she wasn't in a hurry since they were for the holidays...then we both laughed because the holidays are quickly approaching:)

-- the snowman is done out of minky dot so he's a little furry if you look close:)

Boy Appliques

These are for a little boy who was born the day before Emily Kathryn! His mom always asks for my sewing machine appliques. I LOVE the fabric (especially the owls).

Girl Items

Here are a few new pictures. I made the ruffle pants in the first picture and did the applique on the shirt. I think this mom is planning to use these same pants with a Christmas tee down the road. I love gingham and corduroy pants...they are so versatile!

The two rompers were purchased by a friend at a consignment sale....we ripped out the old monogram and added a patch with her daughter's initials and name. Super cute (and super great deal on the rompers)!!

SEW Excited!!!

I have some exciting news to share! About a month ago I was blessed with a monogram/applique machine! It was an amazing gift and something that I'm "SEW" excited about! I've spent many hours practicing thanks to some sweet friends:) and decided this morning I need to just take the plunge and update my blog:) Here are a few things I've done and I have lots more coming! You'll notice I have slideshows of the appliques I have available. I will update soon to show you my monogram fonts.

Until then email me if you have any questions.

I think this penguin fabric is super cute....I love the orange polka dot straps with it:)
