It's about time I posted again!

Whew! I can finally breath again! I had a CRAZY past 4 months! The holidays kept me very busy on my sewing machine and painting. I have started wearing this awesome thing to paint in again:

Except mine is Pink and Gray! Very fashionable, right?!

So why am I wearing this?? I am pregnant!!

I am about 11 weeks at this post. Over the past 4 months, I have been pretty darn busy and sick...BUT I am feeling MUCH better now....thank God! The 2nd trimester is just around the corner.

Anyhow, I have been doing a lot of birthday orders and shower gifts lately. I hope to really start working on some cute spring clothes soon too! So keep an eye out for that.

Here's a few things I have done recently:

And here is the handsome birthday boy wearing some of his outfit:

I also just wanted to add this bow holder because I personally just love it.

A cute little Bird and a Pumpkin!

I finished up an adorable set for Miss Natali. She wore it yesterday and got so many compliments! I never knew black could look so cute on her!

And now the Pumpkin/ Kitty Top. I will be making either a tutu, skirt, or ruffles pants for the girls to wear with this. When I get a little more painting done over the next few days, then I hope to get that finished plus a cute bow for each girl. So please check back!

We have another Owl!

I just finished this up in between doing some bow holder orders. The nice thing about sewing is that if I have to stop in the middle of it, I can easily pick up where I left off with the kiddos running around. It's not so easy to do that with the painting. Once I mix my paint up and get started, I can't easily take a break with the girls in the house. Thank God for Mother's Day Out 2 days a week!

Anyhow, here is our 2nd owl. I decided to do this one in blues, greens, and browns so that I could show it without a bow for boys and with a bow for little girls. I hope you like it! I think it turned out really cute, but I am not the best photographer and it is rainy and dark outside so I apologize for the not so great pics.

First, the "boy" owl. I don't know if you'll notice, but this owl is considerably smaller than the orange owl.

Now, add a bow, and we've got a girl owl! This is the same owl even though this gives it a totally different look.

The size that I did this owl in works best for the little ones under 2. The orange owl size is good for bigger shirts and even adults.
