Though I do think that those little boy outfits that are "trying to look like a man" are cute (vests, khakis, button down shirts, etc), they are too much fuss for a baby. Call me lazy, call me casual, but the tie one piece is just simply the best option for dressing your little man up--it's easy, it's cute, and it always draws a little bit of humor. I finally came up with an option for a girl. A few people had mentioned doing a necklace, but I was scared. I didn't know how to make it look real or cute. I just thought I'd go for it, and I'm glad I did, because now sweet baby girl has a great option to dress up as well, and she'll always have the right accessories.

Baby girl will be looking very put together with her double layered "necklace" one piece accented with multiple attached flowers. It's a chinch to throw on under leggings, a skirt or tutu knowing her accessories are taken care of!

Fall gets me excited! Now that I don't have that dreadful feeling of having to go back to school (I wasn't always a fan) fall means: sweaters, white pumpkins (i love them), warm drinks--mulled wine or cider, and most importantly (to me at least) FOOTBALL. I love the sound of a football game on TV. I love attending football games. I've been too many. many. many. many. The Ravens are my new favorite team, and I wanted a cool shirt for my new cool team. So here it is. I like it because it's subtle. I'm contemplating adding this kind of dramatic silver and faux diamond button for an eye, but I can't decide...eye? or keep it simple without an eye? Happy Fall and GO RAVENS!

I do lots of designs for babies and kids, but haven't done much for older kids. I just got to make a special order for a 10-year-old, and it was really fun to do something totally new for an older kid! I think it turned out pretty cool. There's argyle on the side seam so it will show from the front and back. What's your opinion? Think a 10-year-old would like it?

I partnered with a few friends and new friends in a fun summer boutique tonight. We set up in a gorgeous back yard, enjoyed some yummy treats and drinks, and enjoyed seeing everyone's creativity and meeting everyone's friends! It was great! Thanks to all who came, and we're hoping to do another event (indoors of course) in late fall. Stay tuned!

I love ruffles and I love the Union Jack. I think I offend my English Nana every time I show her something I've sewn with my version of the Union Jack because it's never the "proper" colors. I did it again today, but I love the results (sorry Nana)--I sewed a t-shirt for myself today combining my two favorite things! Cream and navy ruffles on a green and blue tile-patterned ground, sewn to a soft grey t-shirt. I can't wait to wear it.

Personalization was all the rage like 8 years ago...you could buy everything with your initial on it--EVERYthing. I grew really sick of it all, but somewhere inside me I must still secretly love it, because I'm bringing it back. Each time I do one of these personalized letters, I love it. I can't get over them, so I keep making them. I especially love the double-layered single lowercase initial. Check them out, and bring them back with me!

So, I'm the opposite of computer savvy (lots of great stories to back it up), but if you're reading this then I'm getting better! Welcome to my new site. I broke my other one, and though it got fixed by my computer-whiz brother-in-law I decided that I should probably stop bugging him every time I needed an update or a complete fix after I'd break it...so here we are! Thanks for checking it out. There are lots of new and cute designs, and more to come.
