Cute new Onesies

I made a couple of fun onesies for a friend, and think they turned out too cute not to share! There's an adorable tuxedo onesie for dressy occasions and a playful onesie for that football-player-in-the-making. On the cherry onesie, I love how the bright colors coordinate with the cute flowers on the pacifier strap.  :)

(You can custom order any of these items in my shop.)

State Fair Entries

Sometimes I think there is only enough time in my day to make a craft or blog about it:), so recently I have been busy making all kinds of crafts!
I just finished my three projects for the NC state fair.
I love entering projects in the state fair and have entered projects/crafts since 1998!
I really enjoyed making this fun bird wall hanging! Since framing in embroidery hoops is popular right now, it was fun to work with that in mind and create this project

 

This is the dress and matching purse I made for the state fair. For this dress I had so much fun designing the modern look I wanted with pink and orange and I even put a black fashion zipper in the back for extra flair.

Fun gold sparkly shoes!

See fashion zipper pictured below!

Cute matching purse and striking rosette detail.

Zebra nail art

 My sister Rachel and I saw this girl on a commercial that had super cute nails with zebra
nail art on them.
Then Rachel had the great idea to use Sharpie to do the lines, so we had to try it!
All you do is pant your nails light green let them dry then draw squiggly lines on with a Sharpie!
And enjoy the cuteness!
I love how mine turned out!

Cute Tile Coasters

I saw this great tutorial for making tile coasters...

...and it was so fun and easy I had to try it out!

The glitter in this paper adds a fun sparkle (and hides any imperfections!), 

but you can also use fabric and even add initials or designs.

4" tiles will hold even your biggest mug of a warm winter drink!

Can't you just see a set of these in complementary colors in every room of your house?!

Twins are Twice as Cute!

I made this collection as a gift for a family that just had twin girls!

Matching hair rosettes for the babies...

...and a bigger one for Big Sister! (instructions here)

Simple skirt with elastic waist and tulle overlay in adorable girly multicolored butterfly print fabric 

and rainbow ribbon casing.

Pink Tutu Skirt

I made this fun pink skirt as a custom order for a friend. It is a pink butterfly-print cotton fabric with tulle overlay and a ribbon casing. I had never made this pattern (Simplicity #1816 k5) before so I was a little nervous, but I think it turned out perfectly, and my friend was thrilled!  

Embroidered Blanket

I embroidered this super soft blanket as a hostess gift for some sweet friends. 

I love how it turned out!
