Summertime

It has been busy around here!  As I am sure it has been everywhere! We have had VBS, camps, gymnastics and baton.  As well as making time for the pool!

I have done a little work though.  I added this bee on a couple of outfits.  I had just the front to applique, which made it much easier!  Afterwards she was going to finish putting the outfits together.  I'll post the finish products - a john john for the boy and a jumper for the girl - if she sends me one.

This is a doll from Applique Chick.  It is so cute and easy to make - although there is a learning curve:)   For a limited time she offered it for free but asked you to send one to her for a mission project.  It would make a great baby gift for a little girl.  She also has a boy doll.

 This is Vera Bradley tote bag I monogrammed as a graduation gift for my cousin's daughter.

 Here is a beach towel that I did for my daughter.  I love the sparkly thread!  I did one for me too out of this thread!

Keeping Busy

Since school has been out it has been non stop around here!  This has nothing to do with monograms or embroidery but I thought I would post this.  This is my neice Lanie and her new husband Britt!  They got married last weekend.  It was a beautiful outdoor wedding. The weather was perfect:)

 Here I am with my family.  My daughter was a junior bridesmaid and my son was an usher.  I almost cried when I saw him in a suit!  He has never worn a suit before.

 Here are two cute little furry puppies that have kept us hoping since school was out.  They are 7 weeks old and just as cute as can be!  Bella is on the left and Cooper is in the container.

bibs, burps and summer

I did these a while back and couldn't remember if I had loaded them or not.  I did a bib, burp cloth and blanket for a friend in my Bible Study.  

I posted earlier some items I did for a friend of my niece's that had a baby.  Here is a burp cloth and bib.  I absolutely love this crab!!

This is another summer favorite of mine!  I love this beach umbrella!

And you need flip flops to go with the umbrella!  I put these last summer on a cover up for my daughter.
