Ice cream cone on a patch


I just love this ice cream cone and I put it on a gingham patch to add more fabric variety and color... Isn't it cute? I couldn't get Addison to cooperate so maybe one day I will upload a picture of her in it. Just as an FYI I did this on a purple gingham set (without the patch) and also the purple double ruffle set (check out the picture)...

Fabric choices



Here are fabric choices for the pale pink double ruffle set and for the pale blue double ruffle set. On the pale pink I will be making a cute purse trimmed with brown gingham and I am still deciding about the blue shirt - possibly a flower or a patch with a monogrammed letter...

Bath Towels for the Kiddos

The kids' new towels up close and personal. I couldn't get a wide shot in the bathroom. How does P*ttery B@arn do it? I am thinking of adding a ribbon or decorative tape to the bottom, but I need to find something that is going to withstand a lot of washings. These are cute, but they are more utilitarian than decorative. I am so tired of "That's not my wet towel on the floor!" -Karen

Chic Kitchen Towels

Kitchen towels embroidered in the Hanna Font. The next time I do these I will use a contrasting color for the animal print since the black got lost in the pattern. I can't wait to see if my friend Elizabeth K likes these! -Karen

Crown applique


Tonight I made two crown appliques for a friend's little girls so that they will have matching outfits. I just love the vintage stitching on this applique...

Cute train bib


Recently I found some of the cutest fabric for a little boy - blue, green and brown stripe and last night I paired the fabric with blue and green microcheck gingham to make the cutest train bib! Check it out...

Wedding frame




This past week we had a wedding shower for one of my co-workers so I made a wedding frame for her and her husband-to-be. I think it turned out great!
