I made this burprag set (blanket and burprags) and the set is on it's way to its proud family. Baby will be here before too much longer.
The other picture is our flower bed, as you can see the sun has come out alittle and Papa is taking advantage of the sun and the helpers to clean up the flower beds. I am not allowed in the flower beds or the gardens (okay, so I did make a few mistakes and took out things I thought were weeds, let us forgive and forget), so I take pictures and watch the grandchildren and keep the water and soda's coming.

I have been having a great time.

Well, I have been having a great time doing Embroidery. I co-designed a picture with the Author of the book "Hallowed Moon" ... We designed the picture and put it on a bag, and a denim jacket. I will at least take a picture of the design and put it on the site.

I finished a logo for a salon and spa in our neighborhood and embroidered some robes for the spa.

I am working on several sets of burprags and receiving blankets (always it seems I am designing several sets of those), I still think that they are my favorite thing to do. I just love babies.

I know I need to get the pictures up and show you them. That is on the list of things to do this week. I hope to have them on the site no later than Thursday of this week. Hope all of you Mom's had a great Mother's Day. I know that I did.

Hearts and more hearts

If you enlarge the picture you can see the several different layers of hearts in white and then the lavender hearts on the outside. For a baby that is very loved!

If I only had more time!

Well March is half over and I am still sewing and embroidering projects. This last week a friend of ours had a baby shower. I had made her a set of burprags and receiving blanket (the lady bugs with the white edge) and my daughter (who likes Amber too) decided she wanted to make some too. So I did the sewing (she only did part of the sewing that is too stressful)and she crocheted around them. I was so impressed that she did them (she did them very well too), she made two sets for Amber and 2 sets for her sister, Plus she wanted to tie two baby quilts so we did (again I did the sewing she did the tieing). Then, I wasn't sewing fast enough so she made two baby blankets (crocheted we know an easy quick pattern) for on the carseat.

Well, I am getting into the groove now so I am making some very simple burprags (spit happens, little princess, happy baby) no crocheted edges, and a small receiving blanket for each one. These are for the Headstart program in our community. Our women's organization (Relief Society) makes things for different groups off and on all year long. They are making flannel boards with animals, magnetic boards with shapes and numbers, little books for counting and lots of other things too. Someone in our church noticed that I had been playing the piano in the Children's organization (Primary) for several years now (over 4 this time) so they moved me to the Relief Society and decided I needed to be the 2nd coun. over Enrichment meeting. So, I am now going to be making alot more things- which is good, I have decided keeping very busy makes me happy, keeps me young, and keeps me out of trouble. Keep watching, I will add some new pictures soon. Vickie :)

Learning more ways to have fun with embroidery.

I am having alot of fun! This is for the Bride to be (my sister Cindy) I thought it turned out pretty cute and now have ideas for all kinds of sayings on T-shirts, onsies, camisoles and more.

As promised here they are!

I still have several more to add to the collection but, a few at a time is good right? If you have questions or orders don't be afraid to contact me either in a comment here or at my email account listed on the right. Hope to hear from you soon with your reviews.

February is a busy month!

Well I have been busy this month having a great time. The pictures will start to come for you within the week. I have several done I just need to take the pictures and post them. Hope you enjoy!
