Another blanket

2010-03-14T19:52:00.001-07:00

I love these blankets and I am excited to start using up my collection of fabric! My mom got me the 3 prints in this blanket about a year ago and I have been just waiting to use it. Now I just need a little girl....wait, I really will be ok. I love my boys.

Strip Blankets - $50

2010-02-14T20:23:00.001-08:00

You have probably seen my strip quilts before. I LOVE them, but they are really pricy for me to make and extremely time consuming. I just made this little lovie blanket for my good friend and I really enjoyed making it and because it's not quilted it was much less time consuming so I can charge a lot less. My strip blankets have cotton, chenille, minky, corduroy, faux fur, and other fun fabrics to give your baby a great sensory experience. They are all backed with the softest minky. The blankets do not have a binding but instead they have rounded corners and I double topstitch it on top for extra durability. I can add a ruffle silky binding, but it would be extra. The blanket is about a 36x40. I also can customize this to you. Just let me know the colors and even if you have a particular fabric line you are interested in.

Baby Paper - $4

2010-02-03T20:15:00.000-08:00

I have been wanting to make this for over a year now and I finally got around to doing it. Have you ever seen that cute play paper for babies? It's the best because babies love paper, but you don't really want them sucking on it. I made this with the really soft minky towel like material that your baby will love. I made this dumb little video so you can hear the sounds.

NEW Binky/Toy Clips: 2 for $5

2010-02-03T15:05:00.000-08:00

So I just made a ton of the binky clips. I think I have an addiction to buying cute fabric, so I decided to start using it up and made about 50 of these. If you want any, let me know. $3 a piece or 2 for $5. They are great because they work with all types of binkies (soothies for example) and you can even just use them as a clip to clip a toy to the stroller or blanket to the carseat so it doesn't fall out, etc. etc. Check them out. I have other designs too I will post later.

Your Favorite Recipe Books - $30

2010-01-03T19:11:00.001-08:00

I started making recipe books about 2 1/2 years ago for people as gifts. When I did the craft fair in Omaha I sold 17 books. I was shocked. Since that time, I have sold 41 in less than a month. It was a crazy month with a lot of cutting and stuffing, but it was fun too. Since I have realized this is an item people are interested in, I thought I would update a post about them with some pictures of the different albums I can use for you. (most styles of albums come in red, black, and brown)

The books have slots for 200 recipes and have the following categories: Appetizers & Desserts, Breakfast, Breads, Soup, Salads, Sides, Entrees, Cookies, & Desserts. Included in the book are about 125 of my very favorite tried and true recipes I have collected from family and friends and trying things out. They are good....believe me. Anyway, the recipes are really just an added bonus, the book is what is fun. I don't glue in any of my recipes, so you can easily remove them and insert your own. Make this book be your only recipe book. That is why I put these together. I was sick of having a million pieces of paper and 10 different books. I combined it all, typed them up and put them into this book. It's perfect too, because they are in plastic which helps when you are cooking and things tend to splatter.

I used stylish scrapbook paper and an assortment of fonts to make this book not only functionable, but stylish too.

I am selling the books for $30. They make a perfect gift, wedding presents, or just because YOU want it. Email me if interested and include the book you would like along with a 2nd and 3rd choice in case I can't get it anymore.

Bibs & Binky Clips!

2009-08-06T06:36:00.001-07:00

I have just started using some of the fabric from my quilts to make matching bibs and binky holders. The bibs are quilted. Below is a picture of a bib up close so you can see the quilting. I am selling the bibs for $10.

I only have 6 of the binky clips here, but I have one or can make one to match any of the bibs. The best thing about these clips is they work for all kinds of binkies (even the soothie ones) and they work for toys or other things. The binky clips are $3 unless you want it to be dual colored (I can make it use both colors in the bib, the green one has this on it) for $4.50.

If you want to purchase a quilt, I will throw in a bib and binky clip for free.

For Sale

2009-04-03T13:55:00.000-07:00

Here are the newest ones finished. All are for sale. If interested, please email me.

TAN - My mom found this piece of fabric and I loved putting this one together. The back is a different backing than I have ever done and it is so soft. It is a cream plush and there is nothing like it.

BROWN/WHITE: I found this brown monkey print and had to use it! The back on this quilt is a brown dot minky. ZOO PRINT: This has such a fun zoo print and a super soft green minky on the back. Double click on the pictures to see the fabrics up close.

PINK/GREEN/BROWN
This is one of my favorites! It has a fat satin binding, with a swirl minky back (SOOO soft!) Any little girl would LOVE this! Please double click on any picture to see up close.

PINK/BROWN with Satin Binding: This has a thick pink satin binding and a pink twisted minky back (SOO soft!). This has some really cute pieces along with quite a few minky strips and a brown fur strip.

ROOSTER QUILT:
This is courtesy of my mother. She saw this fabric and loved it. I think it would work for a boy or girl and it has a soft dimple dot brown minky backing.

PINK/BROWN w/ no visable binding: This was a tester one and it turned out really cute. Rather than doing a satin or fabric binding, we sewed it inside out first and then just flipped it out so it has a nice clean edge and then we used a wavy stitch to sew it together. Since there is no binding, I am selling this for $100. This blanket has a fun long fur, chenille, and satin.

I have many more coming soon. Please let me know if you have any requests.

The Example

2009-02-28T10:05:00.001-08:00

Here is the first quilt I made. I love how big it is. It fits perfectly over the car seat when we need to go out in the cold or in public. It is about 1 1/3 yards in length and about 44 in. in width. Here is a close up of the fabric I chose. This section has a couple of fabrics and flannel prints as well as 2 blue and a brown minky strip, a silky polka dot, and the fur.

This is the other half of the quilt up close. It has some very fun textured prints (the white on the very far left and right in the middle is a checkered blue chenille fabric). I love these pieces! I also love the brown and blue polka dot minky.

Here it is all together laying flat.

I didn't take a picture of the back, but I always like to use a very soft minky or plush. If you customize your own instead of buying one I already made, I can give you color and fabric choices.

Do You Want Your Quilt Customized?

2009-02-28T09:56:00.000-08:00

If you want a particular color scheme I do not have pictured, I can customize one for you for an extra $15. The reason to charge is because it will result in making a trip to the fabric store instead of using fabric I have on hand. I'd be glad to do it, however.
