More 2-Piece Outfits









The ladybug 2-piece outfit is handmade with the applique included! The pants in all the other pictures are handmade as well.
These are just a few ideas, the options are endless!

Recent Projects

Some cute Christmas ideas! The ornament is so cute to do for girls or boys! I love the bright Christmas lights too- no need to stick with just red and green!


I think the crown is perfect in this fabric, a pretty pink and brown damask print!

















Thomas is spelled in my new font, "Whoa Nelly," which I am obsessed with! It looks so cute for kids!










Cooper is in Amelie font with the precious excavator- perfect for boys! I hope you are not having any trouble checking out my new design links at the top... you do have to have a snapfish account, but once you have one, you can check them out any time!

New System

I am trying to figure out how to display all of my designs since Blogger "eats" them when the page gets too long. I put up links above to all of my designs and fonts, but I am not sure if all can view them. They are Snapfish albums, so you may have to have an account with them to see the pictures. Please leave me a comment to tell me if you have a problem with it or if you have any suggestions of how else to display the designs. Thanks!

Some More Applique Designs















































Some of these are no help to you now that Halloween is almost over- but at least I can have them on here for next year's ideas. The acorn, cowboy hat, guitar, football helmet, and airplane are must haves for a little boy!
You can count on Kate wearing the ornament and Christmas lights on something too!

Christmas Dresses and a Fall Special


Some sweet twins will arrive VERY soon to go in these matching Christmas dresses! Welcome Blythe and Joy! These are the basic a-line dresses with the circle script monograms and the diaper covers are "Curlz" font. Time to order for the holidays!
FALL DEAL- From now until November 15, monogram and applique t-shirts are buy 2, get 1 free!

Hairbows and 2-piece Outfit







I am making hairbows now. I can do alligator clips or spring clips- whichever hold your girl's hair the best! The smaller ribbon (like the orange bow) costs $3 a bow and the larger (like the brown) is $4. I can make the little baby bows too, they are just not pictured. They are $1 a piece. I can do any color and can easily look for patterns, like the polka dots, so just let me know what you would like, and we will make it work!
This 2-piece girls outfit is so cute on! It is a dress-top, so it can be worn with a long sleeved shirt and tights, or with the matching pants. The pants can be worn with a plain top also. I made this for Kate and got a light pink top and put her name in brown to match the pants.
There are a lot of precious coordinating fabrics out there, so if you tell me a color/pattern you would like, I know I can find it!

More Recent Designs

I love the acorn applique- it lasts all fall, as opposed to a pumpkin, and it looks great for boys!


This was a new circle monogram font I tried, and it is cute for boys or girls! I am adding my new fonts to the sidebar on the right.








More applique designs. The football and top of the acorn are a lightweight brown corduroy, so it adds a little texture to the designs. I LOVE the stocking, it is getting me ready for more Christmas designs. It is not too early to place Christmas orders- be on the lookout for sales!

Applique Designs and a Romper

This is a romper I made for Blake recently and it turned out to be one of my favorite patterns yet. It just seemed to fit him better than some of the other ones I have found. It has a snap crotch and two shoulder buttons. This is the shortall, but I can do a longall also.










These are some outfits that had previous monograms on them that were bought at consignment sales. I wanted to give you an idea of what we can do to remove monograms or cover them with a patch and monogram.
I love the turkey applique! I have done a multi-colored one (feathers are 3 different fabrics and the body is another fabric) and several single color ones. This and the pumpkin have been really popular... now is the time to order for the fall!









These are a few more applique ideas for diaper covers or burp cloths. I love the simple lowercase letter applique on the diaper cover. I also think it is neat to do some different fabric choices for the car or other commonly used designs.

This t-shirt is such a great way to tell friends or family your big news! (No- this was not for Blake!!!) This shirt was made in a bigger size to tell the family now and to also wear when the new baby arrives.

Back to School Specials







These are some examples of a girl's jumper that I can make- with a monogram or not. I have several fabrics to choose from or you can pick your own and I will discount the dress price. I will post pictures soon of the dress with contrasting pants for the fall. These dresses work very well with a shirt and some leggings underneath as well for the fall and winter.
This is Kate's backpack for Mothers' Day Out. It comes in pink or blue and I can do any monogram or font or applique design on the flap. I love it that the backpack is plain to start with- you can do so much to make it your own!

Update of New Applique Designs

I should have added the summer ones a while ago, but I just forgot... so I thought I should get a head start on showing you some fall and winter designs. They can be done with any fabric and I can adapt some too. For example, I can remove the smiley face from the pumpkin and insert a name. These pictures are not exact ones I have done, just the examples of how they look finished. Hope you enjoy these!
