Happy Father's Day!


For Father's Day we had a cookout...so I wanted the dessert to match too!

I made Cupcake Hamburgers (with brownies for the patties)....



And Sugar Cookie French Fries!



Just as good as the burgers my husband cooked for the family!
DELISH!!!!

Baby Baby

An order was placed for some
onesies with matching hair bows
and some burp cloths






And I made this onesie for a friend! 


Dish Towels!

In honor of July 4th...I made me some festive dish towels




My mom loved them, so she asked me to make some as a gift for some family!

She wanted some 4tth of July ones....and some fun ones!








Special Baby Gifts for a Special Friend


A couple of weeks ago, we had a baby shower for good friend.
She didn't find out what she was having...so the theme was yellows!

I tried these new contour burp cloths...and LOVED them!
They are made with flannel and fit perfectly on a shoulder.
They were a new hit...can't wait to make more of these


(you can't see, but this side of the burp cloth is polka dotted!)



Finally, I tried my hand at making a "taggie" pillow.
These are fun little pillows that the babies can hold...they are squishy and they have fun "tags" to chew on and feel.
It was also a successful hit!

For the College Grad!


I mailed this to California in honor of a graduation party!
Tori will be headed to Madison in the fall!



When she opened the box, she was so excited!

My Niece....the Baker

When my oldest niece told me that she
"Wanted to be like Aunt Gretchen" so she made a cake and decorated it...
my heart melted!

So of course I got right to work on an apron just for her....




Her phone call when she got the package was something I will always remember....

Welcome to the World, Landry!!!

Our very good friends had their lil man a few weeks ago!
The Mommy asked me to make some fun onesies for her new guy.

I must say, they turned out pretty stinkin' cute!






Towels for the High School Grad!

A co-worker asked me to monogram these awesome lime green towels
for her daughter who is headed to college next year!
She wanted something simple so her daughter's
towels didn't get mixed up with others.

LOVE the hot pink and lime green combo!


Baby Shower Gifts.....Again!

Yes, I know! So many baby showers for me!
I am so happy for all my friends having their babies this summer...
it is such a wonderful feeling to see your friends begin a new chapter.

And I and loving making personalized gifts...
it adds a very special touch to this special time!







Big Bows for a Little Girl....


Little Ella needed these before she came home from the hospital!
