venturing into aprons- good Christmas gifts!




I have made several aprons in the last few years but I only give them as gifts and move on. After I made this one though I decided that aprons MUST be in my repertoire! This one is just too cute and va-va-voomish to pass up. I have plans to add many more style of aprons soon.
It can be made out of any fabric you wish but would have to be very washable. I also can add a ruffle on the hem (seriously cute). Sizes are the usual- S, M, L, xL $32.

St. Timothy's boutique










I could not have done this show without my friend (she is my youngest son's AMAZING Godmother) "P". So if she is reading this- I can never thank you enough!! She stayed the entire day with me. God bless her.

The show was a lot of fun and the best part was that met a wonderful girl who makes incredible jewelry that I can only drool over. Thankfully, she agreed to a trade so I walked away with two gorgeous pieces that I alternate every day. I hope she enjoys her purse as much as I ADORE my necklaces!

I want to post a few pictures from the day because my oldest son took my camera and snapped some shots of his own. These are courtesy of him :).






more Miss Jenn's Everyday Bag....






















Miss Jenn's Everday Bag





















I have been intending to get organized (something that always seems to allude me!) and explain what each bag style is and if there are options, etc. So here is what I have. I can tend to over-explain so please bear with me.....






SOME of these bags are in stock and some of them are not. Depending on how many orders I have in line I can get a custom bag done for you from 3 days to 3 weeks.


This style has outside pockets- which is awesome since I have ruined at least 3 cell phones that I remember due to spilling something inside my purse. I make it now with two inside pockets as well. It has a button closure (usually it sparkles!) and I interface it pretty stiff.


I typically have the most fun when I can mix fabrics but this style just doesn't allow for that. That being said, I can add a trim to the outside pockets or like the turquoise and grey one I can sew more "stuff" on the fabric ('applique' is the word) if you give me the green light. It's totally up to you!


Miss Jenn's Everyday bag is $48.

mmmmm- my new skirt

My son's chubby little legs are definitely the cutest thing in this picture but my scrap skirt is a close second (that's actually not true- those legs put the skirt to shame)! Going back through all of the gorgeous fabrics I have used these past months is a visual feast. My idea is to scale this down and give it an elastic waist- made for little girls of course. After I get one done I'll post a picture.
