Some helpful software info...

I have had many questions about what software I use to merge appliques and fonts and I wanted to let everyone know that I use Sew What Pro.

You can find info about Sew What Pro at http://www.sandscomputing.com/

They have a trial version that last 30 days that is FREE! And if you like it you can purchase the software for only $65 bucks! It is very user friendly and a very resonable price! Please let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks!

the itsy bitsy spider

Here are a few spider shirts I made for this Halloween season!
This design is from Planet Applique except I deleted one of the spiders and added a name in its place! Got to LOVE Sew What Pro! You can really do all kinds of things with this software! I think it turned out sooo cute!!

These spiders are from Applique Cafe! I love how simple and easy they are!

Close ups of the spiders! I added a little bow to Emery's spider so it would be a little more girly!

I had some cute pictures of the kids in their spider shirts together but I LOST my camera at Priddy Farms Saturday so I will not be able to post any pictures I took from there! So sad! Wish I could get those pictures somehow....

pumpkins and ghosts!

Here are Max and Emery's pumpkin patch outfits!! I just LOVE how they turned out! I haven't tried the dress on Emery yet...only because I am scared it won't fit! I used a 0-3month dress in her closet and made a pattern from it! I could not find an a-line pattern out there anywhere so I just made my own! Let's hope it fits!!! LOL
My friend Heather emailed me and asked me to make something cute for her son and her nephew! I love it when others tell you to do whatever you want! So I came up with these little ghosts shirts! I thought they turned out super cute as well! Simple and Cute! Love it!


It's Been a While!

Well, I am slowly getting back into the sewing world!
Our newest model, Emery was born August 27th at 5:55pm weighing 7lbs 5oz and 19in!
Big Brother Max was so excited!
Life with a 2 yr old and a newborn has been a BIG adjustment but we are loving every minute of it! I have to say we are truly blessed! God is so good!
Emery will be 6 weeks old on Friday! I can't believe how fast the time is going! We are slowly but surely getting adjusted so I thought it was time to start sewing again! It just makes me feel so good that I can make fun creative things for my kids and of course for others! With that being said I am not ready to take on alot of orders from friends just yet...maybe after the holidays I will be back in full swing!
