I'm still crafting!

Athough I have loved having a break from customer orders, it hasn't kept me from being super busy with embroidery work. Now it seems there are tons of birthday gifts, teacher gifts, baby gifts, and things for my kids to work on. Here are some of my latest creations!

Burp rags for my sister-in-law's soon to be baby! 

I actually made other items for her but forgot to take pictures of them. 

A summer outfit for Carter. 

He LOVES finding "squirmy wormies" so I just had to make him a worm shirt. 

Personalized cups for teachers at Cooper's school.

This week was teacher appreciation week so we gifted Cooper's teacher a gift every day!

I think she was SUPER surprised when he brought her a gift each day! 

Beach towel and beach bag for Cooper's teacher. 

Dish towel set for Cooper's teacher. 

Beach towel birthday gift for a little girl!

I packaged it in a beach bucket with a shovel and thought it turned out so cute! 

A scripture tote for Cooper to bring to church. 

Nothing cute, but he loves to bring his scriptures to church  and so he was really excited to see his name on his very own scripture tote!

Ribbon name towel

A cute name towel for a little girl's Baptism with the date of her Baptism on the bottom!

I picked  up this ribbon up at Hobby Lobby because it was 100% polyster just like the thread  I use so if you like to use bleach on your towels it's okay because the ribbon and thread will keep their color. And yes, I tested it out. I bleached the ribbon twice and it stayed true pink and lime green.

Name and numbers are in the Kwekel font.

More Beach Towels

This beach towel was for Cooper's teacher as a present. By the way today was Cooper's last  day of school,but I let him skip, so he officially is out for the summer!! Woo-hoo!!

And a sneak peak for Jen (the winner of my giveway)!  I am eventually going to get it to you,I promise!! LOL :)

Beach Towels

Every year I embroider beach towels for the boys for the summer.  It keeps them from fighting over which towel is theirs.  This year I found these super cute beach towels from Wal-Mart for only $5.00.  Can't beat that.   I just added their name since the towlels already had such cute designs on them.  I love these towels and think they look similiar to the pottery barn kids monogrammed beach towels for a fraction of  the cost!

Towels for Coopers Class!

Cooper's class is having an end of school party and for the favors I was asked  to do name towels for  the boys (someone else is doing the girls).  I was going to use the same color thread for all of them, but decided to use 3 colors instead and love the different color variations.  We are going to put the rolled up towels in sand buckets with a few sand toys for them to take home at the end of the party. So cute! Now they will  all be set to enjoy their summer at the beach or pool!!

Font is one of my new fonts that I really like for boys things.  It is Whoa Nelly from http://www.8clawsandapaw.com/.  She has a monthly subscription club for $20.00 and you can download as  many fonts as you like for the month.  That means over 350 fonts for $20.00.  Fabulous!!
