play ball!

So FIRST I have to admit a friend of mine Melissa purchased a shirt for her son with this design on it and I just had to go and find it! I was so EXCITED when I found it for sale at Applique Market!

I merged in the Max's name using the Millie Font from Jolson's Designs and I just LOVE how it turned out!! Super cute!

a few things for Emery...

Most of these were done a while back and I am just now getting around to posting....

The butterfly design is from Applique Cafe. The shirt and shorts are from Walmart. I purchased a bigger size to cut up for the applique. I just LOVE me some matchy matchy!! LOL

Another little shirt and short outfit from Walmart. I just threw on a little cherry applique from Applique Cafe and wala it turns a dull outfit to super cute!
This scallop patch is also from Applique Cafe. I merged in my daughter's monogram using the Strawberry Font from 8 Paws and a Claw. I got the skirt from Target a while back to make something for 4th of July but I never got around to it :( So I thought I would make this little onesie to go with it for the beach. Emery looked so cute in it! Love me some navy and green!

Just some bloomers with the "E" from the Sunny Font!
I got this dress from Remember Nguyen a while back for 11 or 12 bucks and recently put her monogram on it using the Monogram 1 Font from 8 Paws and a Claw.

I actually bought this off of a friend of mine a while back (she was getting ready for consignment) and monogrammed the "E" on there using the Sunny Font (if you can't tell that is one of my favorite "E" monogram for my daughter).

Another dress I got at Remember Nguyen a while back for like 12 bucks. Monogrammed the "E" using the Happy Holidays Font from 8 Paws and a Claw.

for a friend...

A friend of mine brought me three pairs of shorts for me to make shirts to go with. She told me what designs she wanted and told me to make them cute! I was so nervous because I went out on the search for fabric to match but couldn't find anything. So I just had to coordinate fabrics which made me extremely nervous but I think they all turned out pretty cute! The first design is a bird from GG Designs which is one of my favorites and I merged in Presley's name using the Grins and Giggles font from Applique Frenzy.

The next design is a scallop patch that I have no idea where I got it from and I merged in the P using the Sunny font (or Dollhouse) from Itch to Stitch.
And lastly the little teapot design from Applique Cafe. I merged in the P using the Curlz font from 8 Claws and a Paw.

I was so excited when I gave them to my friend and she LOVED them all! Like I said I was extremely nervous since they aren't all matchy matchy. LOL

Getting Beach Ready!!

Made a few things to take to the beach with us...FIRST up was Emery's tutu swimsuit I got at Target on clearance last year! I put her monogram on it using the Sunny Font but you can't really see it here...will have to post a pic from the beach!

This adorable fishing patch came from Applique Market. I merged the M on using the Whoa Nelly Font from 8 Paws and a Claw.
This adorable blowfish came from Applique Market as well! I just love this design!! I paired it with a little skirt I got on clearance at Target last year too! The tank is from Walmart for a mere $2!! Cute outfit for just a few bucks!! Can't beat that!

Brother/Sister beach shirts! This font is from Embroidery Boutique! I just love how these turned out! These bags were given to be a while back. They came from the Target dollar zone for $2.50 a piece. I threw an E on Emery's bag using the Curlz Font and a M on Max's using the Whoa Nelly Font. These were their bags to put toys in for the trip!

And Lastly their beach towels!!! I got both towels at Kohls for 11.99 I think. I know they were originally 19.99 and they were on sale!

Emery's name is monogrammed on using the Carmen Font from 8 Paws and a Claw.

I actually had Max's ready for his bday party but just now and posting a pic of it!

I monogrammed his name in capital letters using the Scooter Font from Jolson's Designs.

I think I could have made a few more outfits if I would have just had the time....

random sewing...

Haven't been as productive as I would like the past three weeks but have gotten a few things done here and there. This little dress I picked up at Target and threw a little "E" on there in the Sunny Font.

This is a white polo that I merged Max's initials on using the Jolson's font from Jolson's designs. I made this to go with some shorts he already had for his 3 yr photo shoot.
I also made these shorts for his 3 yr photo shoot. I love this little plaid fabric. I actually altered a pant pattern again to make his shorts. They turned out so good and fit him like a charm!

The next two things I made for my friend's little girl McKenzie for her 6th bday present! She is all about peace signs and asked me to make her one. So I made this one from Planet Applique. I used the zigzag stitch. Thought it turned out pretty cute!

And the other shirt I did for her is one of my new FAVORITES!! I love how it turned out. It is a raggy flower from Applique Market. Super cute and super easy!!

Now to do a few things for our beach trip!! Hopefully will have more to post soon!

Max's BDay Shirt

Max had a Sports Birthday Party so to stay with the theme I made him this adorable shirt!! I just love how it turned out! The design is from Planet Applique and I merged in his name using the Tipsy Topsy font from Applique Frenzy!

The 3 is on the back using the applique font Cade from Embroidery Boutique! Max of course loved that he had a number 3 on his back like a sports jersey!!
And of course I had to coordinate it with his swim trucks since we were having a sports party with a water slide!!

a little of this and that

Haven't really done too much in the last month or so...just a few things here and there.

Made this for a friend (will remain nameless). This was a shirt I digitized a while back. Same one I made for Max when we told the news to everyone.

I LOVE this little number I put together for Emery! The little octopus is from Applique Cafe. It is super cute!! The skirt is from Kohls.

Made this little onesie as a surprise for one of my friends. She was taking her little girl to the beach for the first time! The design can be found on SWAK. It is all embroidery.

And another "sports" shirt for my son Max. He has been wanting a golf one with a hole and a flag. The design is from Applique Cafe and I merged in the 8 (his faborite number) using the Millie font from Jolson's designs.

These two crosses were put on tees for Max's end of the year teacher gifts! I LOVE this little cross from Applique Cafe. If you look really close I took the pink cross off of the machine before it was finished. Oops! The heart didn't get the final stitches but it is still cute none the less!

And lastly a little strawberry outfit for my little Emery! I found this fabric on etsy and snatched it up. I made her a little skirt out of it and then tried to match up the fabrics to make a strawberry applique on the t-shirt. The applique is from Applique Cafe (I am sure you can't tell she is probably my favorite site) and I merged in the E using the Sunny font from I don't know where...LOL

I have actually done a few more things but I just realized I didn't take pics of them :( I made some monogrammed towels for my niece's graduation gift and a Spiderman bday shirt for my son's friend Cooper!
