Roll Tide!!

Baby gifts

Here are the items I did for a girl in my Bible Study group. She is having her third baby, her 2nd boy in a few weeks. So I did her a burp cloth, bib and a blanket. I couldn't decide on the blanket if I wanted to do the cross or an appliqué letter. So I did both on opposite ends. It turned out really cute!

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year!! I hope this post finds everyone well! I don't know about you, but I am sooo ready to get back to sewing and monogramming! One of my resolutions is to regularly blog and share what I am working on and hunt the blogs I follow for new ideas! So, if you have a blog, please respond or email me and send me the link!

The past 7 months have been tough for me, but are finally looking up! Short story - last month I was diagnosed with Epilepsy. It is a mild case but I am on daily medicine. I have only had one "real" seizure thank goodness. That was the end of October. The biggest relief is an answer to some "spells" I started having the end of May. I actually had these "spells" 16 years ago and then went into remission. These spells are "simple partial seizures". I am on Keppra and if you are on Keppra or you know anyone on Keppra feel free to email me! Luckily I had met someone who is now a good friend that is on it and it was a huge help having someone to ask questions and talk with while adjusting to the medicine.

Ok, enough of that, I'm off to work on a baby gift for a girl in my Bible Study group. I'll post pictures later.

Happy Monogramming:)

Hodge Podge

Here are a few more shirts I have done this week. I love this 3 Christmas tree design!! And I used some of my new fabric:) The flower with the "M" is a good multi purpose shirt that can go with lots of stuff. I absolutely love this snowman!! And again I used new fabric! I am going to make one of these for my daughter!
Here are a couple of reindeer I did for a friend. She used these for their Christmas card picture. She has a cute skirt she found at Target to go with them!

Fall Leaves and New Fabric!

It has been crazy around here! First of all Roll Tide!! We are huge Alabama fans and go to all of the home games and occasionally an away game. The late night games are really tough though! I also help out at my children's school a lot and that has kept me busy too.

I always have time for appliques and monogramming though! Several people have brought me lots lately - so more pictures to come.

Here are some leaves I did for a lady for her nieces. She wanted to match a onesie for the little brother. To be honest, at first I thought that won't look cute at all. But I must say they turned out really cute and really looked great with the onesie! I love seeing other people's ideas come together!

I read on Facebook about a fabric store called Sew Close to Home in Harpersville. Last Friday I was in Chelsea and decided to ride on out to Harpersville and check it out. Sue, is super nice and I love all of the their fabric!! I also went to another new store called The Sewing Room. It is close to me and wonderful! I just hope these small businesses stay in business!!

I can't remember which fabric came from which store but here is some of what I got! I can't wait to use it!

Christmas Trees

Here's a few more items I have done for doo dads & designs. More to come:)
