Lisa's wristlet and pretzels

I usually only put sewing pics on here but these pretzels were so pretty. I made them for my daughters fall festival. I tried not to eat too many.



Here is Lisa's custom wristlet. She liked the 2 bubble gum fabrics together with an opposite color mini wallet. I can't seem to get off these wristlet's. I am working on a dress and a baby doll shirt for Hannah but keep putting it aside to work on the wristlet's...

Wristlet for Dcota

I just finished this one for a friend. I also made a little mini wallet with the same spiders to go inside. I went with the fancy flashy button. What do you think, is the button too much?

Wristlet #2

I made two designs. One with elastic and button and the other closes with velcro.





I made the wrist band part very thick, whick I like a lot better and used a better quality latch. There is a zipper to close the pouch. I think I like the elastic closure on the front better. The velcro looks cheap. What do you think? Do you think it needs a pocket inside? Also, what do you think about a small change zipper purse to come with it?

Wrislet under construction






I made a wrislet out of the bubble gum fabric. This is my first try and I am unhappy about a few things. I thought I would like the snap but I don't. It makes it too difficult to close, especially when the wrislet has uneven stuff in it. I like the big button but want to hide where I sewed it on. I am thinking velcro to close. It is easy and will hide the button back. I also want the wrist band to be thicker. It needed to be lined. I do like the size and the pouch and the zipper to close. I also like the shape of the flap. Ok....off to make a new one....:)

i'm loving this fabric for the mini wallet. But, I do tend to be a little grandma-ish.

Apron Dress for Abby


I made this apron dress for Abby. Her mom picked out the fabric. I'm so glad it fits her...:) This phone pic doesn't do it justice.

Snow White for HALLLOWEEN

Snow White for Halloween. I decided to skip the collar since it would prob bug her anyway. I am a little dissapointed in the skirt but it will have to do.

My Jedi



I made this Jedi Robe for Halloween for my little guy. I made it out of light knit in hopes he will not sweat to death on Halloween night.

Bubble gum fabric

I finally finished 1 in each color. All colors but purple. (couldn't find it)

A friend had a baby girl, so of course she needed some girly bibs.:) I hope she likes them.

Mushroom mini wallet



I have a lot of this fabric that I fell in love with. I thought it would be cute as a mini wallet. These are fun to make and don't take up very much time.
