Ashley's Order...

This order was done a while back too!! It was a very fun order!! My friend Ashley brought me blank shirts and pants and told me to do whatever I wanted!! Seriously!! So much fun!!
First outfit was for her daughter Kate! I had the matching fabric so I made her a name shirt. I used the Anna Kate zig zag applique font from Applique Momma! 

Second outfit was a slight challenge. I couldn't find any fabric to remotely match at first. I finally found some light blue cord that I used to go with some other fabrics that matched the pants. This raggy flower applique can be found at Applique Market!! This turned out to be one of Ashley's FAVORITE outfits I made!!
Next up...some Christmas shirts for her twin girls!! One loves pink and the other loves purple! A cute little tree design from Stitch on Time worked out perfect!!
Christmas shirt for her son Reed!! You can find this applique at Applique Cafe!! 
Another slight challenge with this next outfit...they don't make the fabric to match these pants anymore. However, I did find something very similar to try and match it up!! You can find this football design at Applique Cafe!!
A birthday shirt for the BIRTHDAY boy!! Simple and cute!! The applique number 2 from the Aiden font from Planet Applique and I merged in his name using the Tipsy font from Applique Frenzy!
This next outfit turned out pretty cute!! You can't really tell from the pic but the bottom of the pants are red seersucker so I used that same fabric for the part of the rocket. This design came from Applique Market. I did delete one of the steps at the end so the rocket would look similar to the one on the pants. 
And last one was this cute train applique from Embroidery Boutique!! I happened to have the exact navy cord to match the pants she brought me!! Love it when that happens!! 
And LOVE when I give all the things over and I have one HAPPY customer!! Thanks Ashley for this FUN order! Hope your kiddos are loving them just as much as you did!!

name shirt!

I whipped this up the night before Emery's one year photo shoot with our friend Julie (117 photography). I had some water shots of Max in his name shirt and shorts I made him so I decided I wanted something similar for Emery! I really didn't have time for shorts and ruffles so I went with a skirt.

I LOVE how the name turned out. It wasn't the easiest thing to do since I was putting a 5x7 hoop sideways in a 12month tee but it turned out super cute! I used the anna kate applique font from Applique Momma. I did layer the letters some so that they would fit in the 5x7 area and I made them a bit smaller.
Here's a close up! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!

name shirt

Made this cute name shirt for Max last night. It took all of about 30min to make! I love when they are quick and easy....especially right now as my life is a little hectic!

This cute applique font is the Cade font from Embroidery Boutique! This was my first time using it and I LOVE IT! I actually used the zig zag stitch but there are other stitches to choose from!

I tried to get my little model to smile but this was the best I could do....it was early this morning when I tried to get a pic....he is NOT a morning person...LOL
