Monograms

A good friend and neighbor of mine does monogramming too. She was working on a few things for someone else and her machine began to mess up. She called me and I finished them up for her. Here is a cute minky dot dress I added the monogram too. I love the green with the hot pink!

This is the one my friend was working on when her machine messed up. She did the flowers and the swirls. I went back and added the letter "E" in the middle.
This is a simple appliqué. The person she was doing these for brought her the fabric for the appliqué, so they must have pants to go with it. I love this fabric and this is one of my favorite letter appliqués!! I use it a lot.

National Champions!

This is my last post about football - at least until the fall! I grew up with Alabama Football engrained in me by my Dad. I have been going to games for as long as I can remember! So I had to post our victory!! We have season tickets and decided to order some to the championship game just in case we went. My husband met a long time friend and had a blast!

The kids and I stayed up (my daughter made it to the 4th quarter) and watched. Here's the kids this morning at my in-laws. They went to Academy Sports last night after the game and got their shirts and my son's hat. We stopped on the way to school to get them so they could wear them to school!

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:)
