Hello my friends!  Is it hot enough for you yet?  Teddy and I have been doing our best to stay cool, which generally means keeping all of the blinds closes and hiding indoors.  It is not the most fun way to spend a day, but we do enjoy our popsicles!

In the meantime, I’ve worked on a few custom orders and new baby bibs to get in the shop.  With a friend due any moment and another one just announcing her pregnancy, I am ready for these kiddos!

Each bib has an embroidered embellishment to make them more special for your little one!  They also close with a pearl snap so tiny hands don’t pull them off mid-meal.

I love that this one can be used for your cowboy or cowgirl.  It would go great for a child who loves Toy Story as much as me!  Like Buzz better?  So does my niece, and if she still needed bibs, I’d send her this one.

Though we’ll all love my friend’s baby due next year no matter what, I so hope she has a girl so I can stitch her one of these.  For as long as I’ve known her, she’s gone banana for monkeys (yes, I just wrote that).   Though, if it’s a boy, I’ve got plenty of options as well!

As for those custom orders: a vender apron for Hearts On My Sleeve – If you are in the DC area, Cate frequents the Silver Spring crafts fair, look out for her booth! —  And two vintage hankies embroidered for a dear customer’s in-laws.  I love that they have a special phrase that has lasted all these years.

Now I’m off to the Isle of Palms for Ms. J’s bachelorette!   It’ll only be 100 degrees, rather than the 115 we’ve got in D.C.
