Happy Holidays!

I am trying to work on sewing in between all the holiday craziness. Unfortunately for us, sickness landed in out household as well as Ol' Saint Nick. We have now all recovered, but I have not got much sewing done.

Now that I am on the mend, I will be working on 2 wrap conversions from custom orders (Hopp Tim, and Hopp Santiago).

Only about 2 more weeks until I am home sewing full time. I am very excited about this! Thank you all again for your wonderful support!

Sneak Peek at some MT's in the work for the store!

Here are some of the beauties that will be in the store soon!

I have an Etsy store!

Moving on up! I now have an Etsy store! Not much on there yet, but there will be soon! I will post Mei Tais, Wee Wrapstars, purses, cutsom slots as well as other goodies!

This Beauty is on it's way to it home! Yah! Happy Turkey Day!

update on status

I am just about finished with the Pieced MT, and about ready to cut up Neobulle wrap. I am sorry I am behind, work has been a killer. I worked late every night this past week and last week. But after this coming week, my schedule is MUCH easier, so I will have a lot of sewing time.

So thank you again for your patience everyone.

CGW Pod for SALE! $150

http://community.babycenter.com/post/a18248525/new_wrapstar_pod_150

For those of you that have been dying for a Wrapstar, this is your chance!!! This is a brand new, never used Pod.
This lovely Pod is made from a Didymos Colorgrown Waves wrap, with brown canvas straps, and a beautful cherry blossom appliqued on it.
This is a straight strapped Podeagi that is 180in long (total) and 5 in wide. It is lightly padded across the top of the blanket.
The blanket is long, about 36in I believe. I can get exact blanket measurements to interested buyers.
$150 for the Pod, this includes shipping to the US (add $5 for Canada). I also recommend the additional $1.50 for insurance.
This carrier comes from a dog and cat friendly house. I recommend washing on gentle and hanging to dry to help keep the applique looking nice.

recent shippment

Here are 2 Mei Tais that just went out to there new homes:

This is a Naturology MT lined w/ baby blue minkee, and a bird applique on the strap.

This is a reversible Mei Tai done w/ Echino Scooters fabric on one side and the Naturology on the other. The applique is a bird riding a scooter.

I now have tags! I feel like everything is finally coming together! Thank you to everyone with all your support and kind words in helping me move forward with this.
