Last Minute Creative Vibes

So many last many things to do for the Beehive Bazaar! So excited to get them finished... Lots of anxiety. If I could leave the world behind (kids- husband) I could be finished in 2 days. But since I can't do that (in more ways than one) I will be working up until the last minute. I have to say my little sister Andrea is an angel for helping me with the kids this last week & hopefully this next week

*enjoy these pictures I took of these cool modern homes in Kansas City, MO

100th SALE!

I had my 100th sale on etsy the other day. I know that's not actually a lot but it is for me! I have a hard time getting my stuff listed on there for some reason . It really is so time consuming. I'm going to start selling supplies in my Etsy shop. Supplies seem to do really well. I guess we'll see....

Moustachio Pillow

I've been dreaming about making these for some time now (over a year) I just never made the time do so, but now they're here. Moustache pillows! It's actually really hard to stuff little places on pillows. I found this out last spring when I made my dove pillows. The curl on these pillows is a really small area so I had to get creative.

They will be available at the Beehive Bazaar which is only 2 1/2 weeks away....

Dress design for Shabby Apple dresses

Dress design for SHABBY APPLE DRESSES

leave it to me to find out about this at the last minute & of course have a crying baby all night didn't help me get it finished.

i'm pretty sure i'm too late but i thought i would post this anyway. shabby apple is/was having a dare to design contest & so here are my designs. you'll have to use your imagination quite a bit since my drawing skills are very limited...


imagine this first dress with a super soft flowing stretch knit- i was inspired by the pink striped material i have (second pic) doesn't this look comfy? the large ruffle reminds me of mexico & the elastic waist band attached breaks up the dress for those of us who need a little help in looking leaner. i would add a cap sleeve under the ruffle to make it a bit more modest. ;) ;) nudge, nudge...




the top of this dress is a comfy t-shirt (stretch knit) material with the sleeves a tiny bit puffed. the shoulders have a bit of a rouched look and the cuffs on the sleeves are about an inch long. the skirt & belt are attached & is a little high waisted. the zipper would come up the back maybe even sewn on the outside for a little edgy-er look to this dainty looking dress. i love when stripes are sewn to look the the old chevron signs. i'm thinking white on top and navy blue in the stripes & maybe a red or navy blue belt or flip all the colors around. anything works for this.
