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.

Baseball Themed Tote Bag



Here is a High Quality tote bag that I made for my son's school auction that had a baseball theme. I can make these bags any size and theme that you need. I have some others on my etsy sight with the price.

Summer Lounge Outfits




I can make this summer lounge outfit in any theme/print that is available. If you would like a set personalized just for you then let me know. This was made as a birthday gift for a friends little guy who was turning 4. I can also make the embroidery on the shirt match the theme on the shorts. I am going to make a set for my boys that has lizards, and turtles. Then I am going to embroider a lizard or turtle on the t-shirt that I found to match the colors. I'll post a picture when I complete them.
