Rompers and a Two Piece Set

I ordered a couple of short sleeve rompers that need a buyer and an applique or personalization. They are both 18-24M. I wanted to see if they would sell before I order more.  These will sell for $25.

I also have this turquoise and white set that is a girls 18-24M. This set will also be $25.

This would be cute with an Easter applique.

If you are interested in ordering, please leave a comment or follow the link  at the top to my Facebook business page. There you will find all of my pages of designs and samples of my work under the category photos on the left side of the page. From there you can access my information including my email address. If you are not a facebook user, I'll be happy to work with you via my blog.

Here are a few designs that I think would look cute on the rompers. The fabric choices will vary from this photo. Again, visit my FB page for more choices.

Bow Holder and Initial Shirt With Name

Today, I downloaded and tried out a new design...a flower bow holder. Someone had made Addison Claire something similar but with a ladybug when she was a baby. I've always liked it but had no idea I could totally make in my embroidery hoop. Here's how it turned out. I am selling these for $12.


My second project today was making Addison Claire an initial shirt with her name going across the initial. I used a pin dot fabric for the initial and a light turquoise thread as the accent color. These shirts are $22 with name or $18 with just an initial. You can choose from the pin dot fabric choices or any of the fabric. Leave a comment if you are interested in any of the items.

Fabric Choices

Today I worked on photographing fabric so my customers can now have a visual of the choices available. This is not all of the choices but gives a good variety to choose from.

Where Did The Week Go?

Wow! This past week seemed to fly by! I didn't make many new shirts this week. I did make a Minnie Mouse birthday shirt for a cousin.

I also worked on some bag tags that were fun. The first one is a simple flower that can be personalized with a name or initials. I can do these in all different types of fabrics so I can see lots of possibilities for this one.

The second tag I worked on was a dinosaur bag tag that took a wee bit longer than the flower. I've decided I have to charge $8 for this little guy. This would be cute added to a diaper bag for a shower. Again, I can add a name or initials.

I also made an airplane tag but this one took way too long. It was the most involved out of the three. I know now to look for very simple designs. Anyway, here's a picture of how it turned it out.

Next week, I hope to get back to my clothing appliques. I ordered Addison Claire some cute skirts and can't wait to make her some tops to go with them.

Landon Alphabet Applique Shirt and More Bag Tags

Between my own daughter and my niece Sarah, they are going to be set with spring/summer attire. Sarah's shirt was made using the Landon alphabet applique. This is the first shirt I've done with this font. It turned out really cute.

I also sold my first two custom bag tags. Thanks Janet! I'm hoping these will be a good seller. They are totally made in the hoop and finished off with a satin stitch for a very nice look. I've got some really neat fabric coming in for just tags. They require a bit heavier type of fabric to allow for stiffness.






Here is a little sneak peek at some of the cute fabric I've got coming!

Aprons!

I added Easter aprons to my site today. I started making aprons in December when Addison Claire kept getting so many birthday party invitations. I decided these make super cute gifts and are personalized which everyone seems to like. Along with the apron, I put a cookie mix and tie the bag with a cookie cutter and ribbon. Really makes a super cute gift. The apron with personalization is $18.

Hair Pretties and Bag Tags

This week I've added some new items, hair pretties and bag tags. The hair pretties are very simple but so cute. They are made using felt and made in the hoop. They have an attached alligator clip on the back. So far, I've only got two designs for hair pretties... a bunny and flower with initial of choice. These can also be used for party favors and pencil toppers.







The bag tags are made out of fabric or felt. The possibilities are endless with these tags. They can be used for diaper bags, lunch boxes, gym bags.....etc. I have ordered some clear loops for attaching. They should arrive soon! I plan to add these tags to my Etsy shop.
