I like to make things. I sew a lot. I cook almost as much. I spend a lot of fun time with my son and husband.

I have some new items listed on Etsy!
Head on over to my Etsy store to read all about them! Don't forget, you can request a custom item if you don't see exactly what you're looking for!

Time files!
Time flies when you're having fun! Sorry it's been so long... Let's see, what have I been up to....
Well Hayden is 14 months now. He is growing and teething like CRAZY!!! He's got 6 teeth coming in right now, 2 eye teeth and the rest are molars! Can you believe it?? So he has graduated from walking to running EVERYWHERE, all day!!! It's exhausting! But so much fun. He is such a funny kid! He just laughs all the time, he loves to dance! I have yet to capture it on film because as soon as he sees the video camera, he stops what he's doing and tries to grab the camera. One of these days I'll capture the moment!
So other than that, I've been sewing a lot. I've had several custom items I've been working on for clients. Some have been simple repairs to jackets and throw pillows, other projects have included re-covering a barber chair for my friend's tattoo shop Stay True and making dresses for another friend!
When I'm not working on that stuff, I've been making fun things of my own to sell! I'm working on some really neat wallets for my Etsy store. I will let you know when those get posted online! I am also ready to post a few pairs of baby shoes! Super cute.
A while back I purchased a pattern for a stuffed dragon, along with a penguin and an elephant! I hadn't had a chance to make them up until last week when I did the dragon for Hayden. It turned out really cute! He needs some fine-tuning to make it more baby-friendly, but that should be an easy fix. The girl I bought the pattern from doesn't sell a license to sell the finished items on Etsy, but I did get permission to sell them locally at craft shows! I'm hoping to participate in lots of craft shows this spring and summer, so I have to keep working on my inventory!

Speaking of sewing.... I should get back to it! Until next time!
