Have a good Labor Day!

Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday! I'm headed to mama's house for some BBQ. The kids are working on a video for you, it has to be "perfect" so I don't know when it will be ready.
What do these pictures have to do with anything? Well it's a new applique that will be ready soon for free download in the shop. Like it? I designed it for a sweet girl this Summer (it so fits her personality) and when I came across the pictures today I decided to offer it as a freebie. I think we will call it the Gracie Purse Applique. I will let you know when it's ready.

Oh, oh, oh...can't wait to get back to Peru and my sewing machine to do something for my girls with this applique. Too cute! And thanks to a dear, sweet friend (Hmm, wonder who that would be?!?!) I have some really fun rick-rack to use for it, too! :)

Bob the Bobby,

LOL! Yes the shirt came from Wal-Mart, but the shorts and applique are handmade. I can't make a shirt for $2.88 so I just buy them and embellish.

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
