Mommy and Me

New Jewelry set's for Mommy and Baby!!

Tie one on

I just added these little tie onsie's to the shop. They are made with vintage men's tie's and cotton Gerber short sleeve onsies.

I know your saying , " But, Ive seen this before!"

But what makes these different and special is that not only do they have authentic recycled Tie's but only the top is appliqued leaving the bottom of the tie loose and cool!

Birds & Babies

There's just something about birds. I love them, especially as part of baby motifs. A couple of years ago, I made some great bird/branch mobiles using a pattern from spool sewing for some friends that were expecting their first little bundle's of joy. They turned out really well and everyone loved them. Making the mobile balance though was a "pain in the kiester"!
This year I decided to do my own spin on it . I started making this one for a friend to take to a baby shower, but decided half way through that I loved it so much I needed to give it to my sister instead. She's expecting her first girl! Don't worry about my friend though. I didn't leave her hangin. I sent her with some great red sweater booties.
I wrapped and wrapped and wrapped with yarn and then used the "bowdabra" my mom gave me for christmas for the bows ( If you dont know what a "bowdabra" is, look it up. It's pretty hillarious. And of course, useful mom, I love it.)
I'm sending it to my sister as a surprise!! Don't worry though about her finding out by reading this blog. I'm the only person who actually reads this thing, unless I post a link on facebook! (Prove me wrong, and leave a comment and the end of this post and Ill send you a surprise!)

This is not one that I made, but the original idea from spool.
