New project photos as promised!

Here is Ciara's newest pillow! Great for Easter, yet it doesn't scream Easter, so I chose the wording "Happy Spring" and plan to use it for another 6 weeks or so.

Pillow case $10
w/ embroidery $15
w/ pillow $18
This is the first burp rag I've done with ribbon and it turned out great! It also has a strip of ribbon on the back at the bottom.

Embroidery only $8
w/ ribbon $9
For this, the request was for ribbon that was hot pink with black polka dots or vice versa. I had trouble finding 1 1/2" ribbon, so I got creative and used 7/8" and made 2 strips then added the little black ribbon to dress it up more. I LOVE THIS ONE!!!!

Embroidery only $8
w/ ribbon $9 (add'l small bows 50c ea.)
I also made a made a bib to match this (no ribbon)
If you know me very well, you know I'm always looking for a bargain! I found this little long-sleeved t-sirt at Target a few weeks ago for 75c!! I then made it an Easter shirt for Ciara. She has jeans with little flowers all over the front (sorry, didn't think to take a picture of them). Sorry it's wrinkly, she had it on all evening, then I took a picture of it after she was in bed for the night.

Embroidered shirt $8

New room/new bows

In the process of finishing the basement, we didn't finish the backroom, but we did add some countertop and move some cabinets around in the process so we could add shelving in the back.

Here's my machine's new home! The countertop you can barely see to the R is for scrapbooking, bow making, etc.
This is a beautiful medium sized (4") bow in lime green with white polka dots.
Med - $5.00, Large - $6.00
This butterfly bow compliments Ciara's Easter dress.
$3.00
This is a cute little 2" bow made with 3/8" grossgrain ribbon. The perfect size for a girl with only a small amount of hair.
This bow is actually turquoise and was made to match a couple of Jenna's outfits.
$3.00
Don't forget about my Easter bunny bows (listed under Easter to the R)!

New things!

Sorry for the lack of posts! I got really busy working on the basement and haven't done any embroidery or bows in a long time until yesterday.

I will post some new pictures and items in the next couple of days!!
