Burp Clothes




Super Easy!! I got the idea from one of my baby showers, tweeked the idea and this is the final product. I make them in bunches of 6.

The girl set is for my Doctor that is due 5 weeks after me.

sewing machine cover




I designed and made this machine cover for my Bernina that is always set up in the basement. I figured with all the construction the dust can't be good for my sewing companion.

Doggie quilt




This quilt is a year in the making. I started it as the first appliqued quilt I ever did in St George last year on quilt retreat. (the first doggie is the one facing oppisite of everyone else) This is also the reason I got my new machine that does the applique stitch. Sherrie did another fantastic job on quilting it. This will hang in the baby room above his crib.

For sale








I am making and selling the nursing covers and carseat tents for $25 each. If you would like one contact me in some way and let me know colors and a need by date. Thanks

The nursing covers have two corners with terry cloth to wipe up messes, and an adjustable neck strap. There is boning in the front to hold it away from the mom so she can keep an eye on the little one.

The carseat tent fits any carrier style carseat and has two velcro tabs the hook around the handle. I can add details to the tabs or leave them plain. I can also add ric rac around the edge for $2 more ($27)
