ETSY

I added more appliques to my ETSY shop yesterday...here they are.











These are ready to be ironed on....how simple is that...or after ironing on they can be hand or machine stitched to add a little something to it. I love the E & H material...so great for Fall. Look back later in the week for a little something for the spooks.

Groovy Stripe Airplane Applique

Appliques

Wanted to post some pics of some appliques I have been working on for a customer. So Chrissy if read this I will be sending you a email today.

She ordered the E and I for her children and the K for her niece. I threw in the lower case letters for FREE...see you never know what else you might get when you order from me. It's just a little way for me to say "Thank You". I love the colors!!

Next up... I have started making for my nephew whose due date is in January.

I guess you can tell he will be named Lee... ;) I still have several other items I am working on for him and more for the etsy shop.

I know this will be random but I am thinking about putting together a Craft Fair. This is something I have been thinking about for some time now and since a local club is not having Autumn in The Park this year I thought it would be great to have it around the time of the Christmas Open houses on the square. This is just a thought...but if you are reading this and would be interested in participating please contact me. The show would probably be held on Friday afternoon and Saturday November 13th and 14th.

I hope everyone has a wonderful week!!

BLOGAVERSARY + 100TH POST ='S FREE STUFF

I can't believe this is my 100 th post and also my 1 year blog anniversary was in August. I have had such a wonderful time making new blog friends and seeing so many awesome blogs.

This started out as a way for me to display my photography, talk about my family, and showcase my jewelry. Who knew that in a year I would have people in other states and countries purchasing my jewelry. It just blows my mind!! I am truly blessed beyond measure!! I am so blessed to have a husband that supports me in my ventures (even though he might make some comments about my spending sometimes). This is a way for me to create and a stress reliever.

Just recently I began making appliques and bibs (I will post pics later this week) and now have a little something extra to add. BANNERS...Happy Birthday, Baby shower, Holiday...whatever you want! So to celebrate my 100th post I will be giving this away.....

This was so fun to make...my first one to make is for my son's 2nd birthday coming up in November and I really wanted to be able to make something special for my Sister In Law's upcoming baby shower. It will be really cute...I am having a relative help me with it...She is very creative. I really love the bright, fresh colors and the funky designs on the paper. How cute would this be at some little girls birthday party...and it is FREE to one lucky winner. All you have to do is.....
