New patterns

This past weekend I started working on my Christmas stocking pattern and I think it came out pretty cute considering it was the first one I made.

I think I'm going to modify the pattern some for the next one I make and see how that goes. I absolutely love how the applique with the pocket on the front turned out though! I thought it would be a good addition versus just a regular applique since you could use it for gift cards, candy canes, etc...

I'm also going to be working on some orders for appliqued holiday tees this week so I should have some photos of those up by the weekend or first part of next week. Hopefully I'll be able to sneak in a couple for myself...!

I've been working on some infant/toddler gift sets as well and hope to have those up by the end of the month (if not sooner). I've been working on a new pattern for the bibs so if all goes well, this new style will be included in the sets.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Getting ready for Christmas...

With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, I know it's time to start figuring out what to do for Christmas. I'm not sure how everyone else is but, I'm notorious for being a last minute shopper/crafter when it comes to presents. So this year, I decided to get a bit of a head start and purchase some new Christmas appliques.

How cute would it be to sew up some Christmas stockings with some of these designs? Or hand towels... or t-shirts?? I could probably go on and on but I will leave the rest to surprise as I plan on working on some of these ideas this weekend... *fingers crossed*

As for Thanksgiving, you still have time to put in any last minute orders for t-shirts, bibs, towels, etc. Cut off to ship via priority mail will be next Friday, 11/19. For locals, you can schedule a pickup/delivery up until Wednesday, 11/24. Please remember to allow 5-7 days for handmade items. If you already have something and you'd like it to be monogrammed/appliqued, please contact me to schedule a pickup.

Have a great weekend!!

November

Trying to figure out what you want to do for Thanksgiving? I know I am! With work and everything else going on, I usually never have things figured out til about the week before. But I figure if it ain't broke.... well, you know the rest. lol

The hubby and I had a great vacation over in California... so much that we really didn't want to leave and head back to Florida! We will definitely have to go back as 6 days just wasn't enough...

In CN news, I have some new Thanksgiving/Fall applique designs up and ready to go! There are so many things that these designs would look good on that I'll have to narrow it down and make up a few samples for everyone to see. I will also probably be making up some new bib and burp cloth sets along with some onesies and tees for the holidays. So if anyone has any suggestions/ideas of what they'd like to see, please send me a message!

I'm still working on getting some add'l designs for Christmas so please check back in the next week or two to see what's new.

Have a great week!
