Thank you Alexander Henry

I love Alexander Henry fabrics!!! When I saw this one, I HAD TO have it! It is home-dec weight and it was rather pricey. ouch. But again, I HAD TO have it! haha It is so chic, reds, blues, black, taupes and even a yellow (that you just cannot see in this particular case). Oh I LOVE IT!!!

Now, if you actually read this blog, or you know me, you know VERY well that I have no, none, ZERO need for more fabrics in my collection. In fact, this was the year to use my fabric stash before I purchase anymore. Yah.. that was just another new years resolution down the tubes. haha

Thank you Mr. Henry!

Fabulous New Fabrics!


Well, I've been waiting for some sunshine to take pictures. It had been gray, overcast & rainy for the past few days. I love the start of tornado season (NOT!). So, this is what i've been working on while listening to the thunder booming. Now I just have to upload to Etsy!

Featured on Curiobot.com


Looking for something uber-unique? You definately need to check out this website - http://www.curiobot.com/. Its "An archive of strange and wonderful products". The site makes me laugh out loud! There is a steak ring that I think Dave was salvating over, and a mocha dunk mug that is just too clever. But what is the real reason I want you to check out the site? Well.... I'm being featured on it! :) Actually, my new tie bib's are being featured! If you get a chance, check it out! It is very unique, strange and wonderful. :)

My Sewing Partner


Its been a hectic week. I've been sewing away. Making sure lots of little guys have great little ties :) Lots of orders went out this morning!

This is my sewing partner - Maggie. She seems to have found a comfy napping spot. She has been keeping me great company the past few late nights of sewing. Now if she'll only let me use that pink "jellybean" material she keeps claiming is hers :) I have some plans for that!

Brand Spankin' New


Brand Spankin' New, not even posted yet.. how cute are these? Have a little one that is in that drooling stage? A spin-off from my tie onesies, i'm using the same trendy fabrics but fusing them onto this soft white terry cloth bibs. Haven't posted them anywhere yet. I'm still taking pictures of all the fab fabrics that I have in my stash for the ties. But I promise I will try to post them soon.
Because of the Family & Baby Expo AND due to Funky Finds Blog (I'm advertising on that blog this month - check it out.. funkyfinds.blogspot.com or click to the right of my site, you can see the link) I am also declaring baby month in my shops! So, that means lots of new patterns, fabrics and baby items this month! I am also going to do a drawing at month end. More on that later :)
So far this month my new items are fabulous wallets & keyfobs and tie bibs. More to come.........

Tulsa Family & Baby Expo

The Tulsa Family & Baby Expo was this past Saturday. Lots of excited newly preggers walking around, little babies and kids getting entered into baby contests! It was crazy. CRAZY! But so much fun! And.. Tulsa Trendy Treasures was there! Here are a few pics of our booth....isn't it purdy?
The group is made up of 5 talented, stay at home moms and each of us does a little something different. Its definately a one-stop shop!

Andrea - Aunnies T's; Adding a little BLING to your wardrobe has one-of-a-kind cross design shirts and uses swarvorski crystals to embellish them. She also carries really cool (and complimenting to any of her shirts) domino necklaces, belt buckles and frames. We are pushing her onto Etsy, slowly. Once she is there, you'll need to scope her out.

Amy - Possibilities; makes FABULOUS beaded & wired plates, mugs, spoons, spreaders, and crosses. You can check her out on Etsy too!

Ronda - Bair Creations; Specialty made nap maps, paci clips, the greatest bibs I've ever seen and hair clips. Her latest creation..........TOO TOO cute.. Tutu's! OH They are SO cute!!!!
