Stamps I've been coviting & Blog Candy!

Ever since I saw the Edward stamp from The Greeting Farm on Juanita's Blog I've been wanting to get him, plus several others, but my husband has this crazy notion that bills have to be paid before I can purchase any more stamps. He just doesn't understand my obsession, and how more stamps are in fact a necessity! So I'm still waiting for my Edward and the others...but my birthday is right around the corner...so they may be in my grasp soon!!!

Applique Shirts Coming Soon!


Well I finally got around to trying to make an applique shirt. My first try didn't come out so hot. I'm not that good with a sewing machine, still working on that, so the first shirt became practice material. After a few tries, testing out different stitch settings I got it to where I liked it and made this shirt for my little one. There are a few flaws in the stitching, but with more practice I'll perfect it and start making some of these as well. I haven't decided how much I'm going to sell these for, and it may vary with each shirt depending on what I put on it. I will let you all know when I will have these available for purchasing.
