My story...

I have two little boys.



Little boys are super-cute.



Most of the time, their clothing options are not.



I decided that the gaping hole in this market needed to be filled. So my parents helped me buy a machine, and I am now obsessed with making anything I can. I'm having fun, I'm creating things, and I'm Thread Serious.

Lately...

A few things that I've been working on lately...

Please excuse the picture quality--my good camera was being cleaned, so I had to settle for my iPhone to take pictures. 
Love the dinosaur applique.  Sam's name lent itself to a great dinosaur name--feel free to come up with a dino name of your own.



Sam had a fireman birthday party theme, so of course I had to make him a fireman shirt. 

.
I did these little ruffled shorts to match an applique t-shirt.

Another jumper dress in the striped cherries fabric.

Tie closure

Rectangular patch with monogram
Watermelon applique--this is really cute with matching ruffled shorts

I've also bought a ton of really cute new applique options that I'm dying to try out.  Keep in mind that the following are just outlines to show what choices you have.  All outline colors, fabrics, etc. can be changed.  I've invested in some really awesome software that lets me do all kinds of neat stuff, so if there's something you'd like that you don't see, please ask!  More than likely, I can do it. 
These are mini filled designs--they're about 1-2 inches high, and could be added as an embellishment to a beach towel, etc.

Cotton boll patch.  This would be really cute with a green or blue gingham background outlined in brown.

Cupcake alpha--Every letter of the alphabet on top of a birthday cupcake.  I also have a birthday balloon alpha that's really cute.


Golf alpha--again, every letter of the alphabet in a golfball shape. 

Posh circle alpha

Topsy turvy cake

Crawfish

Baseball diamond

Baseball and mitt

Golfball on tee

Hayride tailgate--the colors can be changed to accommodate any school.

Lobster

Necktie--I think this is hilarious

Peace, love, baseball

Fish on a line

Train

Zoe alpha

Circle Monogram applique
