Hi!

I am a Christ follower blessed with a faith-filled husband, 2 incredible sons and so much more. God is so faithful! Being the only girl, I am always surrounded by hockey, baseball, football, muscle cars, loud noises, and all the wonderful things that make men who they are. But, I was born a girly-girl and like everything pink, frilly, and with jewelry and makeup added! Often I’ve felt as if my disjointed, but blessed lifestyle is overrun by testosterone! But, I have found that God is perfect and He knew the balance I needed ~ the perfect men in my pink-colored world: pigs in champagne!

Liam's and Elijah's First Disney Trip

Diana bought these onesies and hats. I embroidered them for the boys' first Disney trip.




JoAnna's Christmas Towels

Erica and I always go in together for JoAnna's gift. This year we got Mike a Sur La Table GC and she bought JoAnna a beautiful initial necklace. I embroidered the towels as a little bonus. She loved them, BTW!




Samantha's Kitchen Towel

Loving these Urban Threads designs. This one was for Samantha.





Will's Birthday Card

Since we are all going on a Disney cruise in April, I added Mickey ears to the penguin and then put a Disney gift card inside. Will loved it!




Giselle/Alina Christmas Presents

Nothing fancy, just a little something so the gifts are personalized. Giselle got a scarf, Alina, a kitchen towel.

Sewing Machine Cover - PFAFF Passport

My little Passport is a real gem. What a workhorse! I know she's made for travel and classes but I keep her out all the time now and use her for everything. I love the IDT and all the stitches and feet. I am so happy I bought her. With that being said, I couldn't leave her out gathering dust ... so I made her a little dress. Matches perfectly with my Paris seamstress theme.




The black quilted fabric is sold by the yard at JoAnn's. I embroidered the design, added trim and a ruffle, then finished with the bling closure and some embellishment to cover the line of sewing over the ruffle. I still think it needs a little something...maybe some red Swarovski crystals? Update soon :)

Natalie's 15th Birthday Card

Natalie turned 15th on October 30th. I got her a Pandora charm - Belle's tiara - and made her an Audrey Hepburn-inspired card. She loved it because I focused on blue as that is her favorite color.
