2 More for the Weekend

This last one is another work in progress. The waistband and pocket will be out of a brown and white zebra pattern that is currently enroute, and the ties are the blue polka dot. Very cute, and not Lilly.

Have a great weekend peeps!

They like them, they really like them...

My aprons have been well received as of late, and I must admit I have really been enjoying putting them together. If my darn kids would quit getting in my way!

Just kidding of course (well, kinda).






They are all sold!
I'm working on more now. How fun!!!
And one last thing...
a new scarf

Happy Day

Hi All-

I was going to post some pics of a new apron I listed today, but a sweet customer that purchased a scarf, snatched it up. I love it when people get as excited about something I make as I do. It's hard to explain, but it's kinda like someone really appreciating something about your child!

Here's what it looks like anyways. I used a fringe for the first and NOT last time.
Hope you like. More coming soon. In other farics of course....
Hmmm, maybe I should invest in some larger pieces with holiday shopping coming up and all. Oh sorry, I'm talking to myself again!


Have the Best Halloween!!!

I posted on the Lilly fanpage last week and was contacted by a lovely lady wanting to purchase a set of 3 wall art pieces to decorate her niece's room.
Here's what I have to show her, waiting for final approval.

ANd in other news, I received my HUGE box of designer scraps and have been sorting through them. Can't wait to get started on some gorgeous new Fall scarves!!!
I'll definitely be keeping a couple of these beauties for myself.

I'll keep you posted with my progress. Still have lots of cutting and sorting left before I can begin sewing.

later gators!

It's Only Taken 16 years!!!

No, it has nothing to do with my children...

or my husband.

It's this guy

Yep, we've live here on the water for 16 years come December 1, and NEVER have I seen one of these in my yard during the day. In fact, I've only seen some at night once, and that was a couple weeks ago.
We live very close to a small island that we've always known had deer on it, but never, ever saw them in our hood until the last couple of years. Obviously they are thriving. Although I did see a wound on this guys back leg. Sure hope he'll be ok.

I have mentioned before that I moved a little desk into my kitchen to house my laptop not long ago and I came downstairs to "check my email" for the who knows what time today, when this one caught my eye.

I am so lucky to live here!!!

Dreary Days Bring Me Down...

BUT...
I am so excited, because
I have recently purchased a whole lotta beautiful designer scraps,
and I will have a new "crop" of scarves and aprons coming soon.

You will have to keep an eye out, because although I don't have the fabrics yet in my hands,
they are coming form a source I know will NOT disappoint.
More on that later.

Have a great weekend!!!

there's a nip in the air!

and that can only mean 1 thing...
the holidays are quickly approaching.


Look what I've got up my sleeve for this year.
It's just a sneak peek if you will, a prototype...



Can't you just imagine a small tree with nothing but variations of these???
Yummy!!!
