Creations...

So I have been playing, to perfect my "crafting" and to work up some samples/items to put up on my etsy store.  Figured I would share a few of them here...more to come I am sure...as I really am getting a kick out of this.
a baby beanie for my "niece" Addison...

A first inital shirt for my "nephew" Zach...
A fun toddler flower shirt (for sale it is a 2T)...
Close up of the flower...
I haven't decided what my preferred method of stitching is yet...I like the edge stictching on the flower becuase as it washed the edges will fray and fluff and really add to the look of the flower.  But I am not sure on my "personalized" shirts what method I really want to use...so I will continue to play and practice...

  1. I love these. Awesome. I've finally been able to do some sewing this weekend... it's so much fun!!!

    Kudos on the etsy shop, too! I'm hoping to kick start one soon that will sell a lot of the vintage jewelry we're digging out of Hastings. I'll send you a link... :)

  2. Thanks Noelle. I really should talk to you about stitching...I have been back and forth on methods and really debate what the best way to stitch just enough to add a touch to the item and help reinforce the iron on interfacing really is. If you have suggestions, I would love to hear them. :)

    Let me know if you do start and Etsy store, I will heart you and pass info on to friends and whatnot. :)
