I am so very excited for autumn!

LITTLE LADY OF AUTUMN






I love fall clothing for children! The colors are my favorite, more so then any other season.

Here is a sneak peek of my fall line. I am very excited to add many new designs and fabrics to my collection. I hope you enjoy and I am always interested in hearing your suggestions on what you would like to see in my shop.

Who doesn't love a plushie??

Stop buying stuffed animals from major retailers!! You can get one of a kind Plushies at etsy and support local artists! None of the other kids are going to have one like it. I absolutely love the variety on etsy.

Here are a few of my faves...

Boys line now at Hullabaloo


Had to add this picture of my newest model (my son, of course) Jack. His smile cracks me up!




I can't wait to show everyone what I am working on for the fall. My boys line is going to rock. I'll give you a sneak peek when I complete my first design.
If you have any ideas or have something you would like to see added to my line, let me know.

My Current Project for my fall line



This dress is a bit unlike what I usually create but I love the fabrics, khaki poplin for sleeves and a heavy weight linen for the bodice (not sure of color). Of course, I had to funk it up a bit so I pinned a few birds and flowers to the bodice and added a red babywhale corduroy
sash to the empire waist.
The birds will most likely be handstitched (blanketstitch) as well as the flowers. I think at the hem I will add another blanket stitch in red.
Would love to know your thoughts thus far...

Day at the Beach

Aubrielle LOVES the beach! Especially going in the water with daddy.


Jack's very first trip to the beach!
He loved playing in the sand but certainly didn't care for the waves.



Jack loves his big brother!


DH, eating, once again! Why is it most of the pictures I take of John, he's usually eating? I don't even do it on purpose.

Ok, Ok, I haven't featured another artist

But, I plan to resume soon. In the meantime, I am working on different ideas for my blog and trying to get organized across the board. Please take a look at the many wonderful links I have collected for various etsy shops. If you feel your shop fits the general theme of my blog, contact me and I may add your link.
