T-Shirt Quilt: Highlands Ranch Poms

This quilt included a great deal of hand sewn badges. 

These dance uniforms were completely reworked to create a quilt panel.  

This quilt's finished size is larger than "brag blanket" and includes a double ruffle.

Knitted by Katrine



A dear friend of mine is going to start listing a few of her knitted items and original knitting patterns on my Etsy site. So, those of you who know me and know I don't knit, don't you worry... she DOES.


Watch for these in the shop and also the appliqued tea towels I made to match them. A great gift set for teacher, don't you think?

Custom Order: Henry's Debut

I've had a very special assignment, sewing the outfit worn by my newest nephew on the day his parents introduced him to their church and the world.


I only wish I could have been there in person and not states away to see him in this little suit.

I followed an older Simplicity pattern. I wouldn't call it vintage but it was a reproduction. I used basic white Oxford weave and made the pin-tucks with contrast red thread. I haven't had much success with a snap setter, so, I sewed plastic snaps in the legs for easy diaper changing.

The buttons on the front are for show and feature little red rocking horses. Basic clear acrylic buttons make the opening in the back. The pattern called for shorts, but it is winter, so I lengthened the legs to make trousers. Happy with the result.

Still Deluxe

Remember the Deluxe Yoga Duffel Bag? Well, I'm still making it in custom orders. Here's another version -- custom request -- and one of my favorites thus far.



Thanks to all those clients who have great color combination ideas. I'm taking Christmas order, now. Don't delay.
