I have been waiting.....

to post pictures of this great bag I custom made for Lisa! I wanted to make sure she was able to see it first before I showed everyone else on here! Lisa contacted me through my blog about possibly making her a custom bag. She is a Wedding Planner in Puerto Rico!!! Her job sounds like so much fun!!! Here's her blog: Puerto Rico Wedding Planner
She told me the things that were important to her and after emailing back and forth for a bit we settled on some design ideas and fabrics. She wanted a tote to carry her laptop, keys, emergency wedding kit, water bottle, cell phone, etc. So she ordered a lg tote, cosmetic bag, & key fob, all monogrammed with her business name. She will look fabulous going to her meetings and weddings. Lisa was so sweet to work with and so patient when there was a delay in getting her bag to her, I included a spcial gift for her, a wallet. Oh and check out the matching pens!!!

Something new and my first GIVEAWAY!!!

I've seen these little card cases/mini pouch and thought they were so cute and functional. You can use them to store your business cards, carry your credit cards and use them to present a gift card to some lucky recipient. I finally made my first one yesterday. And made two more! These are so fun to make! All three of these are made with Sis Boom fabrics by Jennifer Paganelli, such fun, pretty fabrics! I will definitely be making these to put in my etsy shop. I'm also working on coming up with a smaller wallet with card slots and a coin pouch.
And now here is the GIVEAWAY part! Leave me comment and let me know which of these 3 card cases you like the best and what you would use one for. Next Sunday(8/31)at 10pm(CT) I will draw a winner to receive their favorite one!!
Thanks for looking and have a GREAT week!!!

PAJAMA PANTS!!!!

We spent our on and off rainy day sewing!
This is another SEWSENSIBLE pattern, BOUTIQUE BOTTOMS FOR TEENS & TWEENS
This is a very versatile pattern! Makes great pants as well as capris, pajama pants and probably shorts!
I made younger DDs pants with the pink camo frog print she picked out!
Older DD made her pants pretty much all by herself! She used the Disney fairy fabric she picked out.
She is 10 and has done some sewing before but this is the first garment she has made! She loved doing it and was a super easy project for her to start on!

Boutique Bottoms for Teens & Tweens pattern by Sewsensible

I was finally able to get these made last night! I just had not had time to get them done! This is a pattern designed by Aimee' of Sewsensible. This is a new one, actually she has this pattern already but in the smaller sizes. I was able to test this one out for her. The top was a McCalls pattern.

My review of this after testing it is that the fit is GREAT and it could not be easier to make!

BOUTIQUE BOTTOMS FOR TEENS & TWEENS
A few months ago I made her FAITH TOP for my younger daughter and it too was very easy to make!

Cool towel & tote!

My oldest daughter's friend had a pool party yesterday, so I made her this towel and tote bag for DD to take to her. She was glad to have a towel that nobody else could borrow!











I made this tote for a birthday gift for one of DD's good friends. She likes blue and brown, so this was perfect for her. I also made her a pillowcase with her name appliqued with these same fabrics.

A few new towels!

I just finished up these towels for a friend. She had me make the two beach towels for her nephews and the two hand towels are for her parents. I love the way they turned out, I may have to make a hand towel similar to that for our powder bath.

FUN baseball purse

This is a fun baseball purse I made for my neighbor! Both of her kids are now playing baseball, so she thought it would be cool to have a purse made with baseball fabric to tote to the many games! I thought it turned out really cute!
This was my first purse to do an enclosed zipper pocket!

I made her a matching key fob also!
