Time sure flies!

I know it's not even Christmas, but here is an adorable spring outfit! Spring will be here SOON. A customer ordered this outfit for a Christmas gift for a little girl to enjoy this spring! How much do you love aqua and pink??? Such a beautiful combo! It would also be cute in a dress or shirt and shorts set. Up to you!

Another AU outfit this late in the season??? This is another Christmas gift for a customer's nephew to wear next season. This is going to be the PERFECT gift for these Auburn fans! Thanks Leslie!

Towels, towels, and MORE towels!!!! These are going out the door like crazy! I'll be working on 5 more tomorrow! What a GREAT gift for teachers, in-laws, neighbors, co-workers, dirty santa, etc.!

I said I wouldn't be taking orders after today, but I'll extend that till tomorrow as long as my little one doesn't wake up sick. Ears!

Hoooooot!!

LOVE this owl dress!! It's actually a very pretty aqua color, but my camera stinks, so it shows up dark blue. Your little one needs a dress like this with the most popular animal right now! Owls are everywhere!!

I sadly can't take credit for the pink pants, but I can make a pair just like them. How cute is the bow on the Z!? I think I'll start putting a bow on everything for girls!

I also can't take credit for making this Christmas dress...SAD again, but I can take credit for the beautiful monogrammed "Z"! If you like this dress, I can duplicate it!

Get those orders in ASAP! I won't be taking orders that need to be done before Christmas after this weekend. I have A LOT of sewing to do for my family's gifts (shhhh...)!

Don't forget the meaning for the season....

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." -John 3:16

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!








Gifts!

Need a gift for a teacher, neighbor, etc.??? These are perfect and the name makes them special and personal! I can do something other than Christmas designs if you desire. These range from $12-15 depending on the design you pick.

I WILL NOT BE TAKING ORDERS AFTER THIS WEEKEND!!!! Place your orders now, so you will be able to get them in time for Christmas!

Ho, Ho, Ho and Some Turkey Leftovers!!

I'm sure you are still stuffed but as ready as I am to move on to Christmas!! I've been as busy as an elf working on all these Christmas outfits! How cute is the minky dot outfit???? I know, it's not traditional Christmas colors, but sooo sweet for a little baby girl. I love the softness of the minky dot and also the soft pink fabric I used for the ruffles and the trunk. It is beautiful in person. Thank you Leigh! I know Zadie is going to look adorable! I can do any colors you would like and in any size. The outfits range from $40-$45 depending on size.

Thanksgiving has passed, but I wanted to share this "girly" turkey, another non-traditional outfit! I guess you can put a spin on just about anything! Thanks Kindra! I loved the pictures of Ava!

Please let me know asap if you would like to place an order! Don't forget about hats and hand towels as gifts! Everyone loves a personalized gift! You can pick out everything!!!

The BEST Time of Year!

If you know me, you know I LOVEEEE this time of year! What's better than getting to be around family and friends, shop for gifts, eat LOTS of food, celebrate Jesus' birth, and dress out cuties in the most precious clothes ever! Yes, I know that seasonal clothes can only be worn for a very short time, but they sure look adorable for those couple of weeks! Again, thank you to all my wonderful customers for being patient with me through our move and then AR getting sick. Thank the Lord, she's better!

The outfits below are for a sweet customer, Lori and her little boy and girl. They are going to look adorable in them! Lori emailed me and helped me come up with the idea for these outfits. We thought the reindeer would be perfect for her son and precious for her daughter since the girl reindeer had a bow and pink cheeks! I had a blast coming up with the idea, picking out the fabrics, and putting it all together for her little ones! By the way, these outfits are corduroy, but they can be cotton if you prefer. Thanks girl!

Prices range from $40-$45 depending on size for the two piece girl outfit. The boy t-shirt is $22. If you want to add pants for the boy, it's $38 for the whole outfit. I have MANY more appliques if you don't see something on the right side of this page that you love. I can email you ideas that might work for you, or you can go to one of these websites and pick your favorite.

Settled and Back to Sewing!

Wow, what an eventful couple of weeks!!! We spent one week packing our house, the next week moving in, and then another trying to get back to NORMAL! I'm glad to say that Gulf Shores is our new home, and everything is set up in our house, including my sewing room! I finally have my space back!

I finished a few orders last week. Check them out below. Thank you to all of my loyal customers who have been VERY patient with me during this crazy time!

I had to sneak a few pictures of Ann Reese's Thanksgiving outfit that I made her. I just love this turkey! I am working on a LOT of outfits this week using this turkey. There are going to be A LOT of adorable little turkeys out there on Thanksgiving day! I'll post pics of those soon.

The pink dress was another consignment find that I turned into a treasure for Ann Reese. I LOVEEEE this owl applique, and it would look adorable on any outfit.

I made this farm outfit out of fabric I got from the customer. I picked the black and white polka dot fabric, because I thought it just made the animals "pop". I hope she'll enjoy the outfit at her sister's birthday party! This style outfit makes a perfect outfit for any time of year. It looks precious with a turtle neck underneath on those cold days! Those are very seldom here in Gulf Shores.

The duck outfits are for my cousin's goddaughters who love ducks! I know they will enjoy these outfits next summer!

Big Move!

My husband and I have decided to move to Gulf Shores and stop all this nonsense of driving back and forth twice a month! Davey needs to be on property every day, and this will save us money if we can sell our house. If someone is looking for a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house in Birmingham (Homewood area), let me know!!! We are making the big move on FRIDAY, yes FRIDAY!!!! There is a lot of packing to do, but thanks to my family, I'll be able to get it done! I will set up my sewing machine first thing once we get there, and get all my orders out asap! Get those Christmas orders placed soon!


Check out this adorable owl outfit for a sweet little girl! I can't wait to see pictures of her in it. I took this with my phone camera, so it doesn't do it justice at all.
