I know I said I didn't really want to get into doing craft shows, but next month my brother is putting some little tables he is making into a couple of local ones and asked if I would help along with my mom.  So needless to say I said, why not?  So now I am helping my mom with outfits that she is sewing...mostly pillowcase dresses and skirts with matching tops with my appliques on them...and hair clippies and headbands to match...so I have been busy with that.  My mom is sewing like a fiend...so hopefully I can keep up with her! I am staying quite busy now.  Thanks to everyone for all your support and I hope that soon I will be able to get some more appliques listed in my Etsy shop...but for now I will be slow on doing that.  Don't hesitate to ask if you would like anything because I will put my internet business ahead of what I am doing for the craft show...I just won't be finishing up any of my appliques I have on Facebook for now...or doing anything new. Thanks and  Happy crafting!

New Sales on my Etsy shop!

I just wanted to talk about some of the great deals on Etsy I have right now.  I am putting up my headbands with my appliques on them for $5.00 and FREE shipping to anywhere in the U.S. So if you have looked at these, please pick them up now before they are gone!  I am not sure if I will be selling these again due to the fact that I have only sold two since I put them in my shop.  I think they are adorable in your hair...the owl is on an alligator clippie and is detachable ...they fit toddler to adult.


Sorry about the bad shot...but you get the look? Right! So go over and check those out...I am putting them for this price until they are gone!

The other item I wanted to talk about was the cute bag that Sherri won.  She picked my natural tote with a robot applique.  I think it turned out so cute! You can also buy these bags from me with any applique for $10.00!  I think they are perfect for kids car trip bags.  I also love them for taking my small sewing projects to go!  I don't have any in my shop yet...so these are custom order only.  I will probably put one in the shop soon.

Thanks so much and happy crafting, everyone!
