I have come to the conclusion that boys clothes are next to impossible to find. So I decided what the heck... I have some time on my hands. I'll just make my own. I must say I am pretty proud of myself. Campbell is going to be the best dressed kid in Crawford! I'm mainly making things for Campbell and gifts for friends... (Check out Keely Hollerns blog Make Mine Monogrammed if your interested in purchasing some appliqued things.(I can't figure out how to add a link!!)
My grandmother gave me her sewing machine that she used to use to make all my clothes with... that makes it pretty special to me. I've also taken up tennis... Sorry no action shots of that yet. I have my third lesson this week and I think I'm a natural Serena Williams... kidding. I've got some learning to do. I didn't realize there were so many technical aspects of tennis... Hopefully one day I can find a team that will let me play!

I have been wanting to learn how to sew also. Where did you get your pattern?
Those are precious!! I might have to commission you.
those are too cute! I want to know where you got your pattern also--especially for the maroon one?
That is precious!! I wish I could do that. So are you monogramming also? How do you get the cute pictures of the fish and stuff on the outfit? I know absolutely nothing when it comes to sewing.
Oh, my goodness! Did you figure that out on your own or have you had lessons? I love them! I got a sewing machine and plan to take lessons this summer.
I meant to say "a sewing machine for Christmas."
Are you kidding me!?! How did you know how to make those!?! I got a sewing machine for Christmas and am dying to make some A-line dresses for Bes but I have no idea where to start. I have the Martha Pullen pattern book. I took a mommy learns to sew class but didn't learn that much... Are you teaching classes?? =) And are you monogramming and appliqueing (sp?) too? I found Keely from your blog and she's made several things for me... I'm a sucker for all things monogrammed and appliqued! AND I seriously think that I missed my calling and I was supposed to play tennis. I know that sounds goofy because I have only played a few times and I am HORRIBLE but I think given the proper instruction I might could actually be ok at it. Talked to Maribeth and she said Monday sounded great! I'll be in touch!
Hey. I am very impressed with you little outfits.. I can only make the girl dresses and I have only managed to get one little boy outfit done!! yours are adorable... we need to get together and sew sometime!! i will bring my machine to starkville!! anyway, the picture of the beach was trunk bay on st john!!
