Fair Diddley on May 17th

Hi everyone -

I will be doing my first major show of the summer season on Sunday May 17th in Woodstock, IL.
The show runs from 10 am - 5 pm in the historic Woodstock Square.
I will have a lot of things available including patriotic designs with matching hairbows.

I have gotten a ton of new fabric recently and I will be focusing on making boy's shorts over the next few weeks.



I will have an update in the next couple of weeks on a couple of wonderful new designs I have in the works.

Upcoming show

I will be down in Elmhurst on Thursday night doing a show at Visitation Catholic Church. This show benefits the Visitation CCW. It costs $5 to get in but there are food, drinks and door prizes.
The show runs from 7 pm - 10 pm.
779 S. York Rd
Elmhurst, IL

I hope to see some of you there!

New website launch

After long last, my husband and I finally got my new website up and running. I am pretty excited about it. It's main purpose will be for custom ordering. There is a fabric gallery and a style gallery that allow you to pick you favorite fabric and favorite style to create your very own unigue outfit. .
Please take a look and let me know what you think!

I will also still be maintaining my Etsy website with various outfits that also available at the shows I do.

I am excited to introduce a new style for spring/summer that I think is adorable and looks like it would be sooo comfy to wear.
It's the peasant dress and costs $30.

Website update and first show of the season

Well, the website isn't coming along as quickly as I had hoped. My husband is creating a site from scratch for me and it is hard to find the time for the 2 of us to sit down and work on it. But I am hoping to have it up and going within the next couple of weeks.

I will hopefully be participating in my first craft show of the season at Fremd High School in Palatine on Saturday March 7th from 9 am - 4 pm. I will have St. Paddy's days outfits, some Easter things and hopefully a couple of new products (aprons). I would to see some of you there!

Coming Soon to a Craft Show near you....

.....Personalized Onesies and T-shirts.

I will be bringing my stamping supplies along now and making personalized shirts like these below for people. I expect prices to be $6 for onesies and $10 for shirts.

The season is over.

Well, I am done with shows for the year. I hope to start back up again in March/April. I need to decide what type of shows I will be doing but right now I am leaning towards more art fair, juried shows if I can afford them.

Anyway, I will be keeping my blog updated through out the winter as I start making my new products. I will have fabrics available for Valentine's Day, St. Paddy's Day, Easter, etc.

Here are a few of my ideas for my spring line:
several new patterns for dresses and skirts
aprons for kids
matching hats
matching purses
more styles and designs of hairbows

I hope you check back here often to see my progress.

I will also be unveiling my new website sometime in January. It will be easier to use and better to look at!
