One new example...

This is a stitched out example of the "Nate" romper.  You can see the girl counterpart, the "Natalie," under the patterns link.  I made this one for Alex to wear during football season. It's a little big on him now, he is 19 months, but I made a 2T so that he would have plenty of room.  I can do this in any fabric.  This particular example is $45.  I can always switch up material for any team--It would be cute in blue gingham with red gingham tabs, for Ole Miss, you can add a monogram, etc.  Anyway, my model didn't stay very still for me, and my camera fogged up at first, so I must ask you again to ignore my poor photography.

You may not be able to see it very well, but the main fabric is a very narrow maroon and white chevron.

I have a new applique for the state of Mississippi, and I'm working on some pillows.  Be on the lookout for those!

Getting ready for fall orders...

As crazy as it sounds, football season is just around the corner.  Make sure to go through the applique folders and search for anything you'd like.  Of course, I have plenty of MSU things, but I also have paw prints that can be used for LSU or Auburn, and I even have an elephant that can be used for Alabama.  For Ole Miss, ANY of the patches can be used, or I can embroider "Rebels" on anything.  There is also a grove applique available.

I have plain white bloomers in several sizes that can be monogrammed with something on the bottom.

Material-wise I several ginghams--red, navy, blue, orange, green, black, and maroon.  I have quite a few chevrons, also.  Some of them are a bigger size--about 3/4 " in width, and I have some others that are less obvious--much thinner white on a colored background.  I'll beginning working on things for my own boys, and starting on some samples for girls.  I've also got a few things that I'm testing for myself for football season.

As for patterns, there are shorts, elastic skirts, jumpers, swing tops, jon-jons, bubbles, ruffle bubbles, etc.  If there's anything else you're interested in, just shoot me an email.

I can also monogram polo tops with initials, a paw print, or a cowbell.

Again, I apologize for my lack of photography prowess. 

Boys' summer things...

My oldest will be 5 in May, so I'm trying to find some ways to have more "big boy" things without completely throwing in the towel.  I've found these cutre "Ringer tees" which I think are a great option for something a little different.  These come in boys' sizes--S, M, L, & XL, and I'm offering them in red and navy. 

For just the tshirt with initials, they're $16.  If you'd like to do an applique, they will be $20.  I think simpler appliques will look best with these.  For an idea on sizing, I got a small for Sam, and he is a tall almost-5-year-old.

You can do the straight across monogram or a stacked style.  I haven't tried a diamond style yet, but I'm sure it would be cute. 

Another option for the bigger boys--monogrammed cargo shorts.  These have a single pocket on the front leg, but I can also do a pocket on the side.  These are $20.

And some examples of appliques I've been working on.  Remember, I can change the materials and colors on any of the appliques. 

Toolbelt--$18

 

 

Canoe--$15

 

 

Baseball diamond with monogram--$18

 

Monogrammed sunhat for babies--$15

 And lastly, I'm not ready to offer this for sale, but just to give you and idea of some things that can be done for the older ones, I'm working on this pattern--a short-sleeved-patterned shirt with monogram.

And I made Alex a "Taylor bubble" to match!

 

 

I haven't forgotten the girls! I'm about to start working on some things for them. 

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Finally!

My machine has been in the shop for servicing and adjustments for almost 2 months, but I got the call tonight that they have it ready.  (Thank goodness.)  I'm about to start cranking up for spring!

Orders...

I've got to take a temporary break to catch up on orders. I've got a backlog right now, and I don't want customers to have to wait long periods of time between order placement and receiving. If you are interested in placing an order, please shoot me an email; I will put you on my waiting list and contact you as soon as I am accepting orders again.

Thanks for your patience!

Materials, etsy, and examples...

FYI--For fall and winter, I have lots of corduroy for pants, jumpers, and jon-jons.  I have lime green, brown, baby blue, red, maroon, bubblegum pink, and royal blue.  Perfect for a monogram or applique.

Lately...

Quick update on what I've been working on these days.  I'm in love with all of the chevrons this fall, and I've been using them a lot.

$20 on long sleeve

 

Soccer ball applique

Obviously, this picture didn't upload in the right direction...

(small appliques work best)

 

Zig-zag football patch

$15 on short sleeve

$20 on long-sleeve

(shown in lowercase "Bailey" font)

 

Ruffle-bottom pants

$22

(These pants are actually a lime-green gingham.)

 

LOVE this.  A friend of mine wanted a jumper for her little girl to wear to Ole Miss games.  I think it would also be really cute for Christmas with an applique or green name. 

A-line jumper $25

A-line jumper in chevron material $28

 

 

Bubble-leg baby pants--$22

This pattern leaves plenty of room for those still rockin' diapers.

 

I'm not currently offering this jacket, but I was so excited about the way it turned out, I had to show it off.  Sam loves it, it's completely reversible, and it's going to be a great light jacket for milder winter days. 

Bubble-leg jon-jon in chevron material

$38

I made this one for Alex with a front pocket.  I thought it might be more versatile if I could switch out what was in the pocket.  I think a gingerbread man or reindeer will be cute at Christmas.  If you're interested, just let me know in your order, and I'll price it for you. 

Turkey applique in multi-color fabric

October is right around the corner.  I have plenty of orange fabric, and lots of cute Halloween appliques.  Don't forget to place orders ASAP so that I have time to get your things to you so your babies can show them off all fall.
