Five Gals!!

You've heard of Five Guys serving up burgers?  These are Five Gals serving up food in a church kitchen.  

One of these wonderful ladies works with me so I was more than happy to help out by adding a little flair to their aprons. She and I worked together to pick a graphic design and wording. 

Three of the Angels are brunette and two are blonde, but otherwise they are five matching aprons.

The Angel design we selected came from www.emblibrary.com and the lettering was a font included in my Brother Quattro 6700D. The black aprons are from Michael's.  

I hear the event was a success. 

 

Getting ready for our visitors!

In just a few days our community will again be hosting a group of students and chaperones from our sister town of Motegi Japan.  I have been busy embroidering shirts for the 15 students and making handmade gifts for the 3 adults.

One of the adults is female so it was easy for me to decide on this quilted tote.

However, deciding what to make for the two gentlemen was not so easy. Hubby and I finally decided to visit Teavana where we found two beautiful Tea-for-one cup/pot sets to which we will add one of these mug rugs.

Never Again!

On July 30, 2012 I posted the completion of the second of three t-shirt quilts I had promised folks.  Now at long last I have finished the third and final one.  Phew! If I ever agree to do another I deserve a straight jacket.  Oh, who am I kidding!  If/when one of the grand kids wants one, I'll be right there!  Maybe just a little smaller next time.

Baby boom

There's been quite a lot if babies born in our circle of family and friends. I can't make enough things quick enough. I made two of these cute little bibs for two little boys born in the past couple of weeks.  These went along with a onesie with tie and suspenders appliquéd on- I forgot to take a picture of the most recent one. Drat!!

For Boo!

My daughter said she was jealous of the onesies I made for baby boy "K".  Why don't I make something like that for her son ("Boo" as Grammy calls him)?  So I did!

A different baby K!

A co worker is having a little baby boy and tomorrow we are having a baby shower. I don't know what they will name their bundle of joy, but their last name starts with a K so I guess he is another " baby K"

I saw a scad of these tie/suspenders onesies in Pinterest and have been wanting to try it. So, this and the matching burp cloth are for little baby boy K. 

For baby K

My niece had a beautiful baby girl in November. We call her baby K. My niece started that before little baby K was born.  They had decided on a name but were not sharing it until after birth, but with this little hint, "baby K". 

These are for little baby K! Two onesies and a burp cloth.
