Game Day fun~

Labor Day Projects

With a Monday with noone having to get up early, I took advantage of a late Sunday night of sewing! Besides a few baby gifts done, I did a few new designs:

This is a crown that is a little different than others because I can change out the little tiara fabric!

A sweet little pumpkin truck for all my nephews!

I finally had a request for something Auburn....

Revving it up

Here is a motorcycle I did for a friend. I am making all her dad's grandchildren a motorcycle shirt to celebrate his birthday:

At market I lucked up on a TON of makeup bags. I have made myself one, the girls one for their bows when they travel (yes, their bows have their own bag), and trying to decide on what to do with the rest. Here is a makeup bag I monogrammed for Harper's nursery worker, Miss Angel:

A few new designs

I bought a little dress at Market that I know both girls could probably wear now. With leggings, they both can share a TON of dresses. So, I didn't want a monogram on this dress, so I went with a little flower power-

My new software continues to amaze me. I found 8 of this similar style of frames called calligraphy. This is probably the middle of the road in the calligraphy set as far as ornate-ness... if that is such a word. This is for a friend's Sunday School bag:

I had to make Sophie and a few classmates tote bags to bring their work folder home from preschool. I think it turned out cute!

New Fall design and Font

On my new machine I received some new fonts. Below is one I particularly liked, called Fairy Font. Way cute for girls! Also, a new pumpkin design. I think that if I keep making Fall designs the weather will magically change where we can actually wear this stuff...

A Big Weekend for the Hobby

So, lately I have been doing a LOT of sewing, and my machine was NOT wanting to do that much sewing. It worked great when I did one or two things a day, but expecting it to do 15 things a day was not happening. So, Lee and I bumped up my machine power. I am definitely in this hobby now! I even have sewing capabilities, which is comical if you know my sewing ability. Although people have always told me the reason I was terrible at sewing was because of my sub par equipment. We will see... I do have lessons lined up soon! No lessons required for embroidery, though. It is so user friendly and I feel myself speeding up my work soon!

Here are a few new designs I sewed on the new Cadillac of machines:

This is a cute little googly-eyed monster for a little friend. I have about 8 different monsters, little girls included for matching stuff.

Cute little witch.

Cute little witch with a patch. The back of this girl has lots of thread, so sewing it on a patch then putting it on a shirt keeps little witches from having the itches! :)

By the way, I don't know where all the Auburn Fans are this year, but I have about 22 little Alabama Elephants to sew so far, and no requests for AU stuff. Any suggestions for something cute besides the normal megaphone and football patch?

Market Totes

When I was at Market I picked up several of these Market totes. I was hoping to be able to do something a little different than the normal monogram... I think they turned out cute! I am already out of these, but am going back in September to Market to get a few more!
