Happy 1st Birthday Chance!

This is the reversible Jon-jon that I made for Chance.  I embroidered “I am one” on the front and use a “1” appliqué on the reverse side in polka dot print.  This material is so cute.  It has different sayings on like, like “wonderful one, patty-a-cake, the one and only, peek-a boo i see you, giggle, soft and sweet.  Just cute sayings about your little one year old.  Can’t believe where the time has went.  I also made a bid to match, it was my first but it turned out cute. And it did it’s job-keeping him clean!! I just used the same material, batting, an old hand towel, and grosgrain ribbon.

Anna loves polka dots!

Anna loves clothes! Every time I go to the sewing machine, she asks me what are you making for me?? LOL This outfit always gets attention. She wore it to the movies yesterday, and 4 people asked “where did you get this”. Just wish I had business cards to give to these people. I came home and ordered some online. Hopefully I’ll have the opportunity to hand some out. This outfit is made of cotton puppy dog print material for the top and a coordinating brown/blue polka dot material for the pants. Hope you enjoy!

Chance's 1st Birthday (Coming Soon)



Good Morning! I myself can't believe I am up this early. For many of you reading this you laugh, and say what!! Remember I have a little one, who awakes many times during the night, so my sleep is really limited. Chance, my sweet little boy, is about to have his 1st Birthday in 2 more days. Where has the time went? I am trying to get together his outfit to sew as he has to look cute for pictures! As if I could make him any cuter?? That is mommy talking, can't you tell. I love my babies, even if they are getting bigger. I am going to make him a few things: Jon-Jon, bib, and a "I am 1" t-shirt. Of course it will be matching his birthday theme. Speaking of, looking for material-the new Hancock Fabrics is really nice in Hattiesburg. It has a multitude of choices. So, whatever the reason, let me sew a cute one of a kind outfit for you or yours. I will post pictures when finished to let you see the end result. Busy day and week, so off I go. Hope your day is filled with many blessings and remember to tell those you love "Just how much you do love them". Give your family a big hug and kiss when they walk in today! Jesus loves you and has such a wonderful plan for you life. Talk later!

Sewing for me is a stress reliever. I usually sew when everyone is in the bed and it is quiet. Right now, instead of sewing I am blogging about my clothing. I am hopeful of this business growing. I want to share my creative side and let others enjoy the fruit of my labor. I believe God gives us each a gift(s), and for me I am creative and very talkative. I usually never met a stranger-good and bad in some ways.
I am excited about up-cycling and using what others don't want and making it reborn. My husband asked me what reborn meant. For those of you unsure of the word-it means taking something that is used and giving it new life. Like an old pair of jeans and making them wearable again. I hope you enjoy my creations. I also do make lots of NEW things such as birthday shirts, jon-jons, dresses,pants, bloomers, pillows, and expanding to diaper bags. So hold on for the ride, hope you enjoy the pictures. If you are interested in anything you see or just have an ideal of what you would like contact me and I'll do my best to accomodate your request.
