A customer ordered these personalized pillowcases as graduation gifts. She requested black and white letters with red (crimson, actually) stitching to match their new college colors. I really like the 3-initial monogram, but a first name would be cute here too. The cases fit a standard size pillow.
Another fun chocolate brown, lime green and pink combo. Ella's name is also on the back of the onesie but I didn't get a good picture of it.
I decided to go "green" for our teacher gifts this year. Our family is trying to be a little more eco-conscious to make up for the bajillion plastic water bottles and Wal*Mart sacks we've contributed to the landfill in recent years. The reusable shopping bags are everywhere right now. I keep a few in my car to use instead of the plastic grocery sacks, and (when I remember) take them to carry my purchases in. ** Tip: they don't work well as library book bags. Trust me on this. 
The letters of Finley's name are a light pink gingham, although they look a little washed out here. I LOVE this preppy polka dot beach towel with the full name appliqued on the edge. Please be aware that the beach towels are subject to availability, so I can't guarantee an exact duplicate (but I promise I'll try really hard!).
This special little boy is known as "Baby Walker" around our house, but since he's about to celebrate his first birthday, I don't think we can label him a baby anymore. He's grown very quickly into the cutest, spunkiest, fastest little toddler we know. Happy 1st Birthday, Walker! 
This dress doesn't photograph as well on the hanger as it does with my adorable model wearing it (see here), but she was unavailable for this photo shoot. 
I never did find more of the favorite boy fabric I ran out of, so this is the new favorite. It's a very similar color palette with a little wider stripes. Let's hope Joann ordered plenty of it this time. 
These pictures aren't great because it was late at night and I was getting ready to leave town, but I wanted to post them because they're a new item. I embellished waffle-weave hand towels for my mom for Mother's Day. It was intimidating to give the person who taught me to sew something I made, but I'm choosing to believe that she probably didn't inspect each hem and gathering stitch to make sure I did it just like she taught me. Surely she just appreciated the thought, right, Mom?
This onesie was purchased by a customer as part of a store-bought outfit. We added the initial and name on the back so it works with the coordinating dress or all by itself. After having a slight panic attack that my embroidery machine might revolt and chew up the fabric (it happens occasionally) I was relieved that it stitched out okay and I didn't have to frantically search for a replacement yellow onesie.
Another baby girl set, this time in pink, green and brown. I love the color combo and the name Henley. Speaking of names, did you notice my new addition? I have custom labels!
A fun group of classroom parents got together to give their kids' teacher a baby shower for her soon-to-be-born baby girl. I went with a pink and black color scheme and made a custom set including a lovie blanket, name pillow, initial onesie with bloomers, burp cloth and reversible bib. Since she's expecting her first little girl, I thought she should be introduced to lots of pink! Congratulations, Mrs. W! 
I've wanted to be a mom for as long as I can remember, from the moment I could carry a baby doll and push a stroller. My 3 beautiful daughters are the greatest blessings I've ever received and I've never taken the privilege of being their mother for granted. They inspire and humble me daily. They are the reason I started sewing, and they're also the reason why I can't get as much sewing done as I would like!
This was for a special friend celebrating her 7th birthday. Her mom bought a very fun turquoise tutu and leggings to go with the funky t-shirt. I hope your day was extra special, Miss S!
The colors are a little hard to read here, but the tutu is a combo of hot pink, orange, turquoise and lime green. And you can't use those colors together without throwing in a little zebra for fun!
