Artist Roll-ups

Crayon Rolls are the perfect thing to take with you to the doctor's office or restaurants. Small enough to roll up and tuck in your diaper bag or purse, the crayon roll is sure to help you keep your little artist busy!


Visit the shop to order a Crayon Roll today! They would make great stocking stuffers!
You might also be interested in marker rolls or pencil rolls...I make those too! :) I've got you covered!




The Pencil Roll could even be made into a crochet hook roll...hmmm...lots of ideas!

Sunday Diaper Bag

I made a Sunday Diaper Bag using Cara's pattern (a friend from SewForum). The Sunday Diaper Bag is a small diaper bag big enough to hold a few diapers and wipes and a bottle...basically all you would need for church on Sunday. It's a great little bag for a quick trip when you don't want to lug around a diaper bag full of all of those "just in case" things.

Monogrammed Pillowcase Dress

Every once in a while I have to sew a dress to get the pent-up "girlyness" out of me...hopefully we'll remedy that someday soon! Here's a monogrammed Pillowcase Dress I made for our sweet friend Sydney. Pillowcase Dresses are wonderful because they can be worn as a dress and as the girl grows they can be worn with shorts or pants when they get too short. You can definitely get a lot of wear out of a Pillowcase Dress!

First Birthday Set

Sweet Audrey looked so cute in her personal 1st Birthday Hat & Bib! Her mom wanted something to put in her keepsake box for her 1st Birthday. She wanted a bib, but I thought she needed more than just a bib. She loved it!

Monogram Hand Towels

I had an order for monogram hand towels for a wedding gift. Look at how crisp that monogram looks against the black towel! I will admit, I thought about going and getting black towels for my half bath after this...and now that I'm posting the pictures, I still think I might!



I love monogrammed towels! It's a perfect gift for weddings!

Burp Cloth & Bib for Autumn

Forgive the terrible lighting in these photos. I was having some major camera issues this day! A repeat customer ordered some burp cloths for a little girl named Autumn. I chose a stacked name in curlz font. The colors are pink and green...not that you can really tell with the terrible lighting!


Burp Cloths for Aiden


A friend of mine ordered some burp cloths for her daughter's teacher. She let me have freedom with the designs. Since I knew it was for a first grade teacher, I knew Humpty Dumpty would be a hit. For the other burp cloth I did a stacked name and used train fabric...All Boy!



I heard back from my friend that she loved both of the designs, but especially Humpty Dumpty! It must be a teacher thing!

Coffee Cozies









Meet the Coffee Cozy...

Want to save the planet in style? Jazz up your java!



This coffee cozy is lined to protect your hands from the warm cup. Designer fabric has been chosen to give your coffee a one-of-a-kind look so no one will pick up your coffee by mistake! An elastic band and button make this totally adjustable for any size cup. It is compact enough to stick in your purse, glove box, or desk drawer to use when needed. Coffee cozies make great gifts! Pair it with a gift card or a package of fresh-ground coffee for any occasion! Secret pals, teachers, coworkers, or for your own little “happy” present…the possibilities are endless!


All coffee cozies are made in a smoke-free, pet-free home. Fabric placement may vary a bit as I tend to make several cozies at a time from the same fabric. Occasionally, I will place a coordinating fabric on the inside if I am running low on the outside fabric. I take great care in choosing buttons that match the fabric, but they may vary a bit from the picture depending on what I found in my button jar at the time.


Want to make it extra special? Add a monogram for an extra $3. Please convo me first and I will set up a custom listing just for you.
