Some new designs!!

I was making my son's Party Favors today ( he is having a Ghostbusters Party and I made tees for each of his guests) and decided to make some new onesie designs while I was in a groove.




I am in LOVE with owls...who isn't right now? So, I just had to make a onesie and add a little Bling! to it!

FINALLY created an Artist Statement


Artist Statement


Sewing is my sanctuary it brings me peace and makes me whole.  I am free and in my element when in my Sewing and Craft Salon.

As a lifelong athlete, sewing was the furthest thing from my mind until I become a mother for the first time. Using skills my mother tried so desperately to get me to love I started to create what I could not find in the stores. The visions that were in my head came to life and what an amazing feeling that was and still is. I started to offer custom work and I now give their visions life. It brings me such tremendous joy to do that for others and see them enjoy and cherish my finished products. My mediums and skills are forever expanding and I will try to breathe life in to any vision that someone may have.

Crayon Aprons!

My cousin emailed me with a link (as SO many of you do) to a Crayon Apron and asked if I could make her a couple for gifts. As usual I said sure, I'll give it a go. I made a test run apron for GFunk, in Monster Truck fabric of course! He thinks it is the coolest, we even use it as a Crayon Roll too.  They are 10 inches wide, 8 inches long, with a 5 inch pocket, 16 crayon slots, and a 44 inch waist band.Here is a picture of one that I am going to list in my Etsy shop. Of course these can be custom made!

Halter Pillowcase Dresses

I had a request for a Halter Pillowcase Dress. Why not?? So, I just took the Peasant Dress pattern and changed it a little here and there and added a ruffle at the bottom. I made one for my littlest one first and it is a GO TO in her closet. So stinkin' cute on!! Here are a few that I have completed in the last couple weeks. Sizes are 6m-8years.
