If the shoe fits.....


I have been sewing today. I actually did two shirts today while all my children took a well needed nap. It was so nice and quiet-I just had to sew. I was asked the other day if I had any Halloween things in the making. I thought we'll I better get busy, can't wait till the last minute. I made this pattern on a black t-shirt. It is with witch feet with the saying "if the shoe fits...." Too cute if you ask me! How many times do we really "wear these shoes"? Hope not many times as everyday people are looking at us to know if we say we are different (Christians) then we better act different. Hope you enjoy this design. If you would like something that is just "FALL" then let me know and we'll find the perfect design. I can also do treat bags with canvas. Great not to have to store a big pumpkin basket or other large item, and we can personalize it to your liking. Costumes are coming soon, I hope. Just need to sew every night for about 3 hours, but really prefer sleeping instead. Good night!

Wild, Wild West!

It has been so long since I have blogged about sewing. My machine has been in the shop for 4 weeks! That is a long time!! So, no sewing for me. However, got it back 2 days ago and I have made 2 shirts. The designs are Cowboy and Cowgirl. Anna Laura and Kolby picked these out online.
Anna Laura's shirt is cowgirl boots which is appliqued. It can be made for girls or boys depending on the fabric choice. She now states she "needs pink cowgirl boots". She has already asked her Granny for them. LOL! This design can be made in 4x4 or 5x7 and wording can be changed as well.
Kolby's shirt is a pair of guns appliqued. This would be cute for any western theme outfit or party shirt. The material used for the guns was a metallic silver, making them more realistic looking. The handles were made with cow print, which could be changed to any material, depending on your desire. This design could be made in 4x4 or 5x7 and wording can be changed as well.

Now, get to work on one for Chance. I'll post that one soon. Hope you enjoyed the shirts. These designs can be put on a variety of items. If you are interested in any cowboy theme item, let me know how I can help make it "SEW CUTE".
