As of lately...

I did a little sewing last week...well, monogramming I guess. I got this cute little blue chambry dress for Avie at the Munchkin Market consignment sale...for like 3 bucks! I appliqued an "A" patch on it, put it with a shirt I got from Kool Kids consignment sale (the 2 sales were on the same weekend...Munchkin Market in West Monroe, Kool Kids in Ruston) for also $3! I bought the little red pants from Wal-Mart for $3.50. Talk about a cute, cheap outfit! I wish I'd done the patch in red/white gingham though...but I didn't have any and I wanted to do it right then!







(back view)...love the criss-cross!



And if you saw my last post with Hannah's birthday shirt, this is her little sister, Ava's, birthday shirt! Her favorite color is purple so I had to do this!

Birthday Tee's...

A friend from high school asked me to make birthday tee's for her girls' birthday party. Her 2 little girls both have March birthdays so they're having their party together this weekend. This one is Hannah's...I'll post Ava's tomorrow.


Appliqued birthday tee----$20




Custom children's clothes...

So my friend, Jessie, asked me to make an Easter pants set for her little girl, Olivia. I love these outfits on Avie...I made her first one Christmas '09 and she's had several since!

Appliqued tee w/monogram + ruffled pants---$40





...or just a tee for $20



Jessie also wanted another tee to go with the pants, so after Easter she could still get some wear out of the pants...they're just too cute to only wear a couple of times!


Is this not the cutest applique?? I LOVE it!
Holiday pant set + additional tee (for after holiday)---$50
CUSTOM...you tell me colors or find something online, I'll buy it and get started!




Long time, no post!!!

Yeah, sorry, I've been slackin' huh?! Well, the business hasn't been! I did SOOOO much work October-December (up until the day before Christmas Eve!) and decided I needed to take a little break in January. I picked back up toward the end of January and business has been boomin' ever since! If you are interested in anything you see, leave a comment or email me at shell_134@hotmail.com and I'll quote you prices!



Here are some things I did for my friends Mandy and Ben Jones...they are expecting a little boy in just a couple of weeks! I love Mandy's style and the things she's picked out for Brooks.





This is one of my favorite new applique designs...I mean, look how cute you can make a cloth diaper look!





monogrammed Paty blankets




minky dot monogrammed blanket...love this fabric, so soft and cuddly!




of course the camo!

Brooks' dad is a big deer hunter...as is Chad...so if we ever have a little boy, we'll have this same stuff!






My friends Kelly and Blake Davis are expecting a little girl, Kami Grace, in a couple of weeks as well, so here are her baby gifts from the Hendrix's!





We hung these little bloomers on a clothesline at her baby shower!















We took Avie to see Playhouse Disney Live back in October, so I made her this shirt to go with her pink birthday pettiskirt!





Ain't she cute??







My cousin ordered these monogrammed, covered photo albums for her girls.
This one is Jadyn's.




And this one is Laurashae's.




And my sister ordered this custom pillowcase dress for her BFF's little girl, Madeline. I made one for Avie out of this same fabric last summer, except it had gingham trim at the bottom...





Also, my cousin who ordered the photo albums ordered this LSU pillowcase dress for her 5-year-old. They just don't have much cute LSU fabric around her so I opted for purple and gold with LSU ribbon!















Ok, you can giggle a little if you want...but aren't these adorable? My cousin ordered these for her soon-to-be sister-in-law back in the Fall. It was her "something blue"!





And my friend, Shannon (I student taught for her and we've stayed close), ordered this photo album as a wedding gift.





My old roommate ordered this for her wedding guestbook. I loved the colors she chose...





My friend, Kara, brought this by and needed a "Fall-ish" applique for her little boy, Bo.

I used the same fabric for the applique on this bib for him...


Kara also needed a couple of burp cloths for baby Bo

...and a cosmetic bag for herself...every girl needs one of these!
