We made it......

Strut your stuff for february has begun, I'd love it if you stopped on by and voted for your favorite(s)

chirp, chirp, chirp

I'm working on a new item/set for the shop,

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Here we have 3 little birds ~

pictured with two different nest options

with the cloth nest shipping would require for me to fold it then it would need to be reshaped

with the crochet bag version it's flexible and a to go bag to bout

I'd also love to hear how much you'd pay for a set like this.

Wk 7 of 52

I picked up the skirt fabrics a few years ago with the intention of making a quilt,

then a bit over a year ago I worked on a collab with a few other wahms to make a complete baby girl gift set with about half. A couple of weeks ago I scored on a huge bucket of quilting fabrics, inside there was this great pink that matched perfectly.

Today I'm proud to show you a size 6 two piece set, top and apron skirt.

~*Available $30 shipped

custom "pink" fairy

She was done up during this past week,

ordered by a hubby in Kuwait to be sent to his fairy collecting wife

"Catalina" ruffle neck dress

Just finished and snuck in pics before the rain started.




Here we have these Catalina prints done up in a ruffle neck, roomy, twirly dress.



These colors caught my eye instantly when I walked into the quilt shop a few weeks ago.



listed twice, once for sale and once as a custom slot

Simple & Sweet

I found these two fabrics and only bought alittle of each,

thinking of Spring I knew I wanted to do just something with it.

Here goes a 2T top with cordinating shorts.

~*Available*~ $20 plus shipping

Please meet....

Bubba "Daddy" Doll



It was such a pleasure to make this special guy,
he went home to be loved and hugged by an 18mon old boy who's about to experience a deployment.
He is custom made to look like Daddy even down to his clothes which are upcycled from an old ABU top.
Being an Active Duty Military family this just tugs at my heart and it was such a great feeling to send him home.

*Warning* if you're in the Valentine Contest with me on CraftForum don't look below*



So as posted above, my challenge/project this week came from a Valentines Contest I'm entering. My inspiration was the SweetHearts candy. Now I didn't go and write on a whole bunch of hearts but instead I made their box into a pillowcase.




We have the front of the box



the back of the box



a touch of detail on the top, quilted strips, ruffle & ties to secure the pillow nicely


and to top it off, it already has a home to go to, ds1 is gifting it to his gf for their second Valentines Day.

(tutorial to come in a few days)
