Hairbows!!!

Okay, I have been so busy. We are getting our house ready to put on the market, so I haven't been able to do much sewing. However, my friend has! You will see some more of her precious dresses and hairbows for sale on julieklewis.etsy.com....take a look!

We are offering specials on Fridays. Every Friday, it will be something different! This week it is hairbows.....see the picture


Aren't they cute??? These are on ponytail holders, but can be made on clips too.

We are also going to post some Yellow Jacket dresses and UGA dresses on there for football season, so stay on the lookout for those!

Oh, and the teachers loved the cookies that I took them during pre-planning...the picture from a previous post!

I am also getting ready for a couple of shows coming up in the next couple of weeks. Let's see, what else can I add to my plate? No, you don't have to answer that!

Busy, Busy, Busy

Whew, I've been a busy bee lately! I just got some things posted on my new etsy store. You'll have to take a peek. The store is julieklewis.etsy.com and has just a few things on there.
Like this toile dress, but you'll have to go to the store to see the rest...so check it out!

Unfortunately, I cannot take credit for these beautiful dresses. I did not make these. But, my friend did! She is awesome and has some of the cutest dresses for little girls that I have ever seen!



I also spent the good part of Monday making these...

Since I am not teaching preschool this year, I had to make these cookies for those who are. This week is pre-planning week for them, so I thought this would be a nice treat for them. I had so much fun making them, it was so relaxing and I learned a lot while making them. I can't wait for an excuse to make more! If I bake more, I'll be sure to let you all know.

If you have any ideas for my etsy store, let me know!

Baby Gift Set

Ok, so now that the apron give-away is over and the craft fair is over, I'm on to more projects!

I just made a onesie and 2 coordinating burpies for a baby gift, and I think they turned out quite nice. I think I'll add the baby's name, but wanted to take a picture of it before I embroidered on it.



The Big Creek Fair was a lot of fun. I shared a booth with a friend and we really enjoyed ourselves. We both learned a lot about setting up and displaying items, so it was a great experience for both of us!

I am really excited to tell you all that I now have a store on etsy!! You can go to www.etsy.com and look under the sellers for julieklewis...that's me!!! I'll try to post a link on here as well. Right now, I don't have a lot posted on there, but hope to add more soon. I have to get a lot of pictures taken so that I can upload them into the store. If you have never been on etsy, you are in for a real treat!!

Take a look and let me know what you think of it!

Another project that I hope to post on here soon is a t-shirt blanket that I am making for a friend. She brought me a lot of her children's old t-shirts. I have cut them up and am making a blanket out of them. I'll show you the finished project, hopefully this week!

Have a great week, and remember to pass this blog on to your friends.
I'm trying to think of another fun give-away...any ideas??
