Are you ready for some football?

Are your little ones ready for football season? Why not have your child's custom outfit be the hit of the tailgate? It's as easy as choosing a fabric and applique!

Below are some applique designs from Applique Cafe that we can personalize for your team! The pictures are examples only, not items that I have stitched.




Even better....I can make shorts, bloomers or ruffle pants to match!

We can also add your child's name, Roll Tide, War Eagle, etc!



Here are a couple of ideas:
(1) short sleeve or long sleeve T with your choice of app and pants/shorts to match
(2) A-line jumper...we can add trim, etc! These are great because you can add a LS top and tights and wear them throughout the season!
(3) A-line top with bloomers....I'm working on one of these right now in orange with white dots with tiger paws on the top and bloomers...it is going to be precious!
(4) jon-jon (short or long) or one-piece romper or bubble






AND NOW...for fabrics! You are NOT limited to these fabrics...if you have something special in mind, and I can find it, then we can use it! I have also seen red, grey and white houndstooth, tri-checks in UA and AU colors, and navy with orange dots.



























Here's another idea....an outfit that is dominant orange or red, but with other colors also...and a mongram to tie them together. Your child will look great for the game AND you'll get great wear out of the outfit for the entire season!

Customer Order Pics

Thank you so very much to everyone that has been ordering from me! Below are a couple of the items I have been working on.

I am taking orders for football season, fall, and the holidays! Please let me know what I can create for your little ones or for a gift! I will be posting pictures of football suggestions and fall fabrics asap. This bubble is a great staple and can be made in a boy version also! It would be perfect for one of those early hot football games...in your team colors!
I made this outfit to be given as a birthday gift. Please excuse the pictures...I took them just before mailing it. Ruffle pants can be made to your liking with a narrow or wide leg and with the width and number of ruffles you chose.

Fore! This golf bag is perfect for your golf pro to be! How precious would this be with matching pants?



These are Ts done for a neighbor's child.
The purse is my new favorite applique....you can see that Ragsland is using this purse this year.

SUPERMAN!! This tee is perfect for any boy who loves Superman! Personalized by using the inital instead of the Superman S.

I put on a royal blue T for the full effect!

Crazy summer!

Wow! This summer has been busy. Here are a few pics of items I've made for customers. More to follow. Enjoy!

Please let me know what I can make for your little one for back to school and football season!

The back of this sunsuit is just so cute I had to start with it!























FORE!




I guess you never can start too early, huh? These gowns make great baby gifts and also come in pink and blue. $18 with applique or monogram! Add a matching burp cloth and get both for $25!

a couple of monograms....and more appliques!

My machine was busy while I was home last week! Below are a couple of monograms I did for my nephew.

Below is a t-shirt done as a birthday gift. Target has cute cotton shorts for $3.50 and I did this embroidery frame to match the shorts. It is so girly!














I have enough fabric left to make one more pair of alligator shorts and matching t-shirt. Please let me know if you want to claim it!!!













I am really liking this dog....I think it would be so cute on a girls shirt with bow!










I love this purse!!!! I also have an ice cream cone with 2 scoops and a cherry.

Appliques galore...








The bird and purse are appliqued on garanimals Ts...these are a great inexpensive option for basis Ts to applique.


Take me to the beach!






Aren't these cute? The crab is a terry cloth swimsuit cover up that a friend of mine made. I love it!
















This one's for the boys!

I made these outfits for a customer's one year old...won't he be precious in them? Hopefully she will send me pics of him sporting his new duds for me to post! The shirts are $15 and shorts are $18, or you can get both for $30. Add a name/monogram for $5. The shorts come in sizes 6 months -4. I can also make a girl version of the shorts with or without a little ruffle!

These can be done in any of my appliques!

Sunsuit

I love summer... especially because clothes are so cute in the summer! This is a sunsuit that I made for my little one's first birthday party!
I haven't been able to find anymore of the chocolate with pink polka dots, but this would be precious in any summery pattern! I do have enough of the chocolate and pink polka dots to do the applique, though, and can still get the plaid.
It comes in sizes 6 months to 4 years, but I wouldn't put this on a child that is out of diapers.
This is a pretty labor intensive outfit, but definitely worth it. You want one for your little cupcake? Price is $48 with all of the rick rack trim or $34 without. This includes applique or monogram and most fabrics.
