Not just clothes...

I actually started this business with furniture and it grew into clothing. This is a custom chair I did in the Spring. Inspired by JCaroline...one of the "bloggers I'd love to meet"! I embroidered her name onto Kaffe Fassett fabric and decoupaged it onto the chair. I'm actually working on another one of these right now. Decoupaging fabric onto furniture is becoming a bit of an obsession with me!

Jeans!

This is a custom jeans order I did this wknd. I've been doing a lot of these initial jeans lately. They make great birthday gifts for friends! I LOVE these Amy Butler fabrics in the Fall! I had actually planned to use these for a pair of jeans for myself...but they went to one of my favorite cutomers. Happy Birthday, Avery!!
My model/daughter wasn't too happy about selling a perfectly good pair of jeans that fit AND had her own initial on them!

Fabrics

I'm not sure of the exact names of the fabrics in the previous post but I used Moda for the first outfit (with the halter); I believe that is Michael Miller next; Valori Wells; and then Anna Griffin.
Okay, so the new blog is slow-going. Someone cut the line out at the street so we were computerless for a few days...painful! Then I spent a few days trying to figure out how to download pictures to my kitchen computer, to no avail. It's going to be a pretty boring blog if I can't put any pics on it!
So, I thought I'd just post a few older projects that I've done. I'm always working on different things but my favorite is probably the skirts. So here are a few I've done.

The Day

Alan Jackson summed it up so well..."where were you when the world stopped turning?". I know I'm supposed to write about something creative but this day and all that it represents is something we have to recognize. Never Forget. I never will. I was a Flight Attendant on that day and my place of work, as I knew it, was changed forever. God Bless all of the victims. Particularly, the flight crews.

Day One

Well, here we go...I guess I'm an official blogger! I'm glad to finally have a place to share all of my crazy, creative ideas with the outside world! Now, if I can just figure out to make it work!
