Reusable Fragrant Sachets for Your Car or Room


These fragrant sachets make a cute statement in your car plus they smell wonderful for a month or two. I will fill the diffuser jar with lilac, lavender, or cinnamon apple. When that fragrance runs out in a month or two then you can go to the store and buy another fragrance to fill it.

Check out my etsy shop for other colors available or feel free to let me know if you want a custom sachet made just for you.

Winter Hand Warmers


Check out my new hand warmers that will keep your hands nice and fingers nice and toasty if you have to be out in the cold. You just heat them up in the microwave for 20 seconds and they will stay warm for about a half an hour.

There are several fabrics to choose from just check out my etsy sight for prices and different color combinations.

New Purse Available




I had a lot of fun designing and working on this purse. It does start out with a placemat but you wouldn't even recognize it anymore. It is a light green flower garden embellished work of art. If you are interested in purchasing it please see my etsy website (links are at the right). Thanks for looking!

Baby Burp Cloths




I made these for per a request from a friend who is having a little girl. She wanted some burp cloths with a girlish design. I choose a few different designs with an initial and stitched them out onto blank burp cloths which I purchase from a supplier. These are large burp cloths measuring 10" x 18". I would love to design something just for you! I sell a girl set with pink and yellow burp cloths and a boy set with blue and green burp cloths. Yes, I do have boys designs also.

Seat Sacks or Hangaroos



This is my latest project that I just finished up for my son's teacher. She calls them hangaroos or seat sacks and they go on the back of the student's chairs so they can store their extra school items because they don't have desks to store items in like in the days when I went to school. I can make them for any size chair. They come with two pockets and are made of a durable duck cloth. The seams are all finished off with bias binding.


Quilts, Quilts, Quilts












I love, love, love to quilt so if you have a quilt that you would like made I would be happy to help you out. Here is a quilt that I just made for a Presidents challenge in the Sewing guild in which I belong. I loved the Currier and Ives print that I found and had to do something with the fabric. I also bought a quilt die cutting machine and had to try it out. It was fun cutting out the blocks with the die cutter.

Pinafore Ladybug Dress




This dress was made as an Easter Dress. It is made from tutti frutti fabric which is a type of seersucker. There are many different colors and patterns to choose from. For this particular dress I used a ladybug print for the main dress and then a special eyelet for the pinafore. The eyelet had a place to run a ribbon through it so I choose a coordinating ribbon and sewed it in place. Check out my etsy sight for pricing. Feel free to send me any questions.
