Sweet Creations For Baby!

What Fun it is to create for little baby girls!

When my first daughter was born, it was essential to SEW for her.

There was nothing that fit her, she weighed One Pound, Three Ounces!

When she grew into cabbage patch clothes, I was super excited!

Until then, my Mother showed me how to sew little tiny night gowns.

We embellished the tiny night gowns a lot like you see here.

We made them much more simple and less ruffles, but the tiny little pink rose bud

flowers always remind me of my miracle baby girl!

I made ruffles for the reverse side of the onesie. Bloomers is what I had in mind!

Eyelet trim with fabric ruffles made on the sewing machine with flower rose bud trim

to match the front of the onesie.

The onesies you see here are by Gerber. I love to embellish these sweet little

onesies for Baby Shower Gifts. There are so many fun ways to add a little

sweetness and charm!

Rolled fabric flowers, green fabric leaves, ribbon and a pink button are hand sewn to the onesie.

I like to make my rolled flowers with no raw edges for babies.

The little reversible skirt has two fabrics, one different pattern on each side.

 I love this baby skirt for comfort and simplicity.

Great for on the go and super fast for Dress Up!

This onesie is made with one decorative button, and two styles of ribbon.

Rolled Fabric Flower with the same ribbon.

This one is my favorite because it is so simple, but sweet!

Who doesn't love red rick rack?

A red and white polka dot reversible skirt is made to match.

My little daughter was having fun hanging out in my sewing room,

she was using her Teddy Bear to model for us.

You will see a simple tutorial for the reversible skirt at:

Frame A Smile

Welcome back to more ideas to create and share for

A Happy Valentines!

 Frame a Smile!

Especially CUTE for BABY, CHILDREN'S ROOM or NURSERY!

This is where the Frames started

 Frames are simple,

A plain, 2-3 inch flat frame surface works best.

I found my frames at Marshall's, they vary in price from $3.00 to $6.99.

(I still need to finish the large one)

This is what the frames looked BEFORE the DECOR-

Materials used: Mod Podge, Heavy Weight Textured Card Stock, Tulle,

Pearl Beads, straight pins, glue sticks and Ribbon.

You can find directions and endless ideas for adorable flowers HERE .

You can also see a Fabric Flower TUTORIAL UTUBE video HERE.

The Red Frames are great for Valentines!

I added red pins to the center of my handmade fabric flowers.

My Frame is covered with textured glittered red card stock paper.

You can make the Tulle flowers the same way as the fabric flowers, they are especially cute

with frilly pink paper!

I made small green leaves to accent the flowers, I made them on my sewing machine.

Place two green fabrics right sides together, start sewing a leaf pattern, trim and turn.

Pinch the leaf together and glue into place.

Paper from La Creme Stack (Premium Stacks) DCWV

I love the heavy texture of the paper.

I added a small doily with the handmade fabric flowers, along with

a tiny trim of black rick rack and printed ribbon that reads:

Cherish, Love, Joy.

I must say, they are addicting, the possibilities are endless when it comes to

coordinating patterns and colors!

CHERISH the one's you LOVE!
