Tie onesie 1st attempt

I absolutely Love this blog. Trey and Lucy She has the most amazing stuff, and is such a crafty person! I found her template and tutorial for the appliqued neck tie onesie. I fell in love. Only problem, all my friends are pregnant with girls. FINALLY, one of my friends got pregnant with a boy (Hallelujah!) So I finally got to give it a go. I downloaded the free template here from her blog. It's not perfect, but pretty darn good for my first attempt. And by the way, onesies are SUPER hard to maneuver around a sewing machine. The mommy loved it, and that's all that matters!

 I decided it was a  little plain.. I put a "W" on it, for sweet little Wyatt's name. And I attempted to make some shorts to go with it. I will try them again, because well, as you can see, they won't quite fit HA! I instead gave them to my daughter, and she put them on her American Girl doll. Fits perfectly!

Now, I need to find a template to make some little boy bloomers. I thought I could just "wing" but, apparently I can't. HA!

White is so unforgiving...

Before I get to the one I finished tonight, I better put the one from last night on here. It was another same design I did last week.

Black towel vs white thread.... not fun. A deputy of mine wanted a black towel, with a "M" on the towel. He basically wanted the same exact design I had done before with the "J" Same fabric etc. This one was a toughie. I am not sure what the deal was, because I have been flying through them like crazy, but this one, I had to sew, rip seams out of the places I messed up, etc. And when it was all said and done, the velcro was crooked. I am just going to have to leave it, because I sewed the velcro on with black thread, and couldn't tell what was thread, or what was towel. Oh well, maybe she won't notice. You're your own worst critic eh? Anyhow, here it is.

Towel dresses for summer

Ok, here's my newest little idea. I've been seeing the towel wrap dresses coming out recently, and They are ridiculously high in the store. So I am going to make trendy affordable for everyone. I can do them in any color combos, and applique almost anything you want to it. For my daughter's "sample" I used the initial of her first name



I'm super proud of how they turned out, and they can only get better!!! Look forward to more pictures, and maybe I will get enough orders to make plenty more!!!
