FOR THE SHOW...

Some stuff I was getting ready to take to the show this last weekend. Now I am feeling rushed to get more stuff made for the Beehive Bazaar that I am doing in December!! Fun, fun!

PIPER + CHLOE THIS WEEK!

Come and bring a friend for a girls night out! This is a fun showcase with really great vendors...so don't miss out on this season's piper+chloe showcase!! It's perfect place to find gifts for the upcoming holiday season!

RUFFLE ONESIE

Another simple onesie that anyone can do. Just add a ruffle down the side out of some white jersey cotton. I just happen to have lots of white cotton jersey on hand, so I have been having fun with different things...well and I have a ruffler attachment foot for my machine, so that is fun to play with too!

MODERN QUILTING

The quilt was finished a couple days before I went into labor. Me + my mom worked on it pretty much straight for two days. It was a fun little project to work on before baby came. We ended up hand stitching it, and I am glad we did. I attached the binding by machine, it was quick and it turned out really well.

DIY BABY SHIRT

A little shirt I made for Ella. It is just a Gerber brand kimono shirt I bought on clearance and then dyed it chartreuse and the trim is a bunch of little flower shapes cut out and sewed on in a row. Really simple to make.

A QUILT FOR BABY

...............................................................................................

My mom + I worked on this quilt for the new arrival headed my way. We have so far just finished the quilt top. I am still debating how to finish it off. I think I may just machine stitch it, but I like hand stitching so much more, that we may do that. It makes a little more special for baby! I am crazy for zig zags lately...don't know what it is, but here is a good tutorial if you want to make yourself a nice little ziggy zaggy quilt!

Preparing for another Showcase....

These are some of the things that I have finished for the fall Piper + Chloe gift boutique in Farmington. It will be held November 6th + 7th. The burp cloths + towels are new items that I haven't made for this event before.
I am waiting for my Hable Construction fabric to arrive, then I am going to try and make a diaper clutch and changing pad, maybe I will get to it before I go into labor...!

Chartreuse + Pinks

Wedding I did at the end of July. This bride wanted flowers with a vintage feel, and pops of chartreuse and pinks. She supplied the silver vases for the tables. The wax flower that I used this time was really pretty, it had a distinct pearl shimmer to it.

Purple + Orange

:: Ribbon for the bridal bouquet::

Wedding flowers that I am working on right now. I just thought I would post some pics while I am waiting for the lillies to open...probably should have got them a day earlier, because they are not opening very fast...!

PKOLINO TODDLER BED

::P'kolino Toddler bed::
I have been searching for a bed for Jimmy... I like this one, I am still trying to convince Matt on it! I like that it converts to a chair after you are done using it as a bed. The only downfall for us, is that we would have to get another crib mattress.

Paper Clips...

Really, I would have never thought to make a paper clip into an animal shape! I think these are sweet! You can find them here from the Hanko collection.

Bridal Flowers

Wedding Flowers: Freesia, tulips, brezila, roses, poppy pods, lisanthium, and those feathery things....
The stems are wrapped in a wired bark for a little bit of a woodsy feel.

I love that this blog can serve as a file for keeping an online portfolio of my work. I seriously wish I knew how to make my blog cooler. You know like all the good design blogs that have a custom format, and bigger photos, with different formats...maybe someday I will figure it out.
Anyway, if anyone knows how to help me make my blog better...please let me know!!
