What I do to keep my sanity...

Before you view any of my most recent projects, let me preface them by saying that I THINK MY CAMERA IS SICK. My AMAZING camera no longer takes good quality pictures. Maybe I should take it into a shop. I hate to buy a new one since this one was a very expensive gift from Kerry that I have cherished for years! Anyways, at least you get the idea of my most recent sewing projects...



Halloween onesies for 3 month old Baby Ashley
(I ended up monogramming an "A" on the skull - not pictured)


Shirt for Baby Mason (ETA = 1.5 months) Not done with this one yet.
(His dad works for John Deere Co.) - the smoke coming out of the smokestack says "MASON"
I figure Baby Drew needs one since his daddy owns a cotton gin north of Lubbock.

Grant's 2009 Halloween shirt


I plan on making a matching skull shirt for Rhett, but until that happens he will have to wear his Halloween shirt from last year since it still fits him... somehow.

Baby Ellyse's 1st birthday gift = a monogrammed sippy cup and an "e" shirt
with ribbon and tulle
What, Logan? Did you have some news to share with us???

My "business" has really picked up lately. Sooo fun! I've already got some Christmas orders in! Can't wait to post what those projects end up looking like.

Stinkin' cute, Amanda!! My fave is the witch shoes - SOOOOOO precious!! I am trying to get some ideas for a shirt for Grace (Eric & Sara's little one) for Halloween and this would be so cute... mind if I steal it? :) You are so creative!

Love, love, LOVE Elly's shirt and sippy. They are awesome!!! And, yes...Logan does have some news to share...perhaps today I'll get to blogging since I now have a functioning camera...
btw: if I lived there, I would HAVE to have that shirt with the witch shoes...since I'm guessing you can't get it together this year and mailed to me, I may have to order one next year if I can remember early enough...hmmm.
Do share Christmas shirt ideas...I may have to place an Amanda order on those...

I love all of the stuff that you do. I am pretty sure Drew needs a tractor shirt. One of the famers isw already talking about taking him out on the tractor with him. I am sure I will get to know lots about all the different kinds of tractors soon. Hope you are having a great week.
