Time To Go And Vote!

For the South Carolina Street Team winner of this month's Challenge that is!

I had all intentions of entering this one, but, well, my creation didn't work out :( But nonetheless, the entries are hard to decide on! So please head on over to the blog and vote for your favorite!

Anyone for some Spaceships and Flying Saucers?

This month's challenge over at EtsyKids was Spaceships and Saucers. As usual, yours truly stepped up to the plate and designed something! I have had some Micheal Miller Bot Camp in my possession just waiting for the perfect outfit to create and I think that I finally did. It's a three-piece coordinating shorts set. Of course, had it been in the fall, I would have put pants with the outfit, but you know, hoping for warm weather in here in SC.

Anyway, I realized when I went to vote that I could add the voting portion to my blog to make it easier for my fans and friends to vote so if you look at the right side of the blog, you will see it toward the bottom! There are lots of great entries, as always, so all I ask is that everyone who comes to the blog this week..... Go Vote! You can vote for the president, you can vote for the senator, you can vote for the governor and even the next American Idol, and now, you can vote for EtsyKids February Design Challenge winner!

Peace, Love and Hugs!

It's THAT Time Again!

Etsy Kids is having their monthly challenge and, of course, you know that I entered. If any of my readers could see it in their hearts to head over and vote for me, I would be forever grateful. I know that I will never win one of these, but it is refreshing to see that I am not the only one that likes my designs! Actually, you don't even HAVE to vote for ME, just head to the blog and vote, one way or another. It was a really close race last month, I have some great friends that voted (and by friends, I am talking about YOU)

Hugs and look back soon for more designs from me. I have a BUNCH in my head, now to get them in fabric!

Wouldn't your Girl look GOOD in this for Thanksgiving?


I am a part of an embroidery group. You know, the kind where the owner digitizes files and you have the opportunity to buy at a discount..... Well, she has monthly contests where you get a set of files and you have to use at least four of them. This month was the third time that I did this...
And I have to say that I am VERY happy with the results! Sorry to have so many pictures, but in order to see the great work, there has to be many pictures. I had figured out a price for this, but in all the hustle and bustle going on, it's lost in my desk somewhere. lol

I won the ACT challenge!

Well, I was the only one that entered, so I guess I WOULD win, but here is the write up on the Artfire Cafemom Team blog!

Yep, I entered another Challenge!

Last weekend, I entered an embroidery challenge since I got my machine back. Instead of making something that chipmunk could wear, I made something that a kindergarten-er could wear her first day of school (that was the theme). Well, life did not go as planned (like it ever does, right?) this week and this ensemble was a saving grace for me. It's NO where near perfect, but Chipmunk has been running around in it for an hour now, even though it's "too big Mommy, it's TOO BIG". ( Something she's been telling me about another outfit that I made at the beginning of the week that I need to get a photo of to send off ASAP. I try every day and those are the words that I hear, Amiee, I keep trying!)

Anyway, the deadline for the entries are today but I got this up last night. Then when Chipmunk decided to try it on, I snapped a picture of her in it. You can't see all the embroidery in the picture (she wanted to pick up the dog and I wouldn't let her) but she's a cutie! It's a size 6 (she wears a 4). I am contemplating listing it on my various sites, but also thinking of listing it on eBay with one of my free listings that I get a month.

So, tell me what you think in the comment section. Having made this ensemble, I am considering doing complete clothing collections that all coordinate together. What do you think? Will that be a good seller?

Anyway, I will post about my week later. I need to work on scanning some pictures first.

Team South Carolina Challenge Voting Time!

It's getting toward the end of the month and that means that it's time for the Etsy South Carolina Street Team Challenge voting! There are not many entries this month, but the theme is a great one....

Back to School!!!!!

You know me, all I care about is that there is a good voting turnout.

On a more somber note, I will be attending my Aunt Amy's funeral this week. It seems that the more that I write this down, the more real it becomes. Actually, it's going to become extremely real in a few hours when I see my grandparents. I will post a loving memorial here on the blog once I get back and can scan all the pictures that I have of her. I am six years older then her. My grandparents adopted four children after raising their own four. See where I get my loving nature?

Anyway, go vote in the challenge and be on the look out here for a memorial and some great things coming from Stitch'N Love Boutique and from my new ventures, Stitch'N Love Pets!
