The Perfect Little Girl Purse



I love making these. The prints are so much fun. I could really go crazy at the fabric store. This little bag is perfect for little ones. It is a great size for them and the velcro closure makes it easy for little hands to open and close it. It has an inside slip pocket and a removable little flower. I hope these sell well so I can make more.

Mother/Daughter Matching Aprons


I just made these the other day and am so happy with how they turned out. The printed one is for mom and the solid with lemon accents is for daughter. I may have a wholesale opportunity for them and am keeping my fingers crossed that all works out. I would love to get my items into a real B&M store.

Baby Boy Appliqued Vehicle Quilt


So hard to find great little boy things. I know I have two of them. I just finished this and love the way it came out. It was so fun to make. Can't wait to try out more styles.

New Line of Makeup/Travel Bags


I have been playing around with the design of these for a little while and think I finally have it. I just finished this one today. I am hoping to add a few more this week or next.

Nautical Navy and White Tote



I think making these totes are my favorite. I have made so many that they go together pretty nicely for me now. I need to get around to making myself a new one soon as the summer, and pool season will be here before we know it. My mom actually picked up this fabric a couple of years ago and I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it until now. For me, each piece of fabric kind of presents itself as to what it wants to be. Some scream backpack and others nicely whisper small handbag please.

For Grace



This one is for you Grace. I am just trying to decide which direction to go as far as pattern and syle. Is the color right? Too light? Too dark? Smaller or Larger Print? You hate it? You like it? You love it? I was thinking of a messenger bag. The body of the bag would be in sage and the front of the flap would be the coordinating fabric with some brown, or should it be the other way around? Tell me what you think. You won't hurt my feelings. It has to be perfect.

Use Me Again Cards



So I got the idea for these cards as I was throwing away some really great cards I got for Christmas. I thought, this is crazy. I thought if I put an insert into each card, they could be used again. When I give gifts, I also like to have matching gift tags so include one with each card.

Beach Bags!



I have been working on my summer line of beach bags. They are so functional with an inside zipper pocket and two large velcro pockets. I also love that they are machine washable. These are my newest.

What I am working on



I just started working on this quilt and I am loving it so far. The material is so much fun. I think I am going to make it baby size. I still havn't decided if I am going to yarn bind it or hand quilt it.

Under the canopy


This was my little one while we were at the festival. I am thinking of using it on some of my photo cards. I love the blue of the canopy.

At the festival


Two summers ago I took my little boys to a local festival. I just found the pictures and thought I would share.
