My Boys...and the Things I Do for Them

See these guys? I love them. A lot.

And I really like making stuff for them.

So much so that Hudson is lulled to sleep by the sound of my sewing machine and Maverick puts in custom order requests.

I freezer paper stenciled these shirts the night before I delivered Hudson. Hudson's hat and pants were sewn from an old t-shirt. The hubs said he looked like Gnorm the Gnome.


How to be a cool mom? Make anything that looks like a light saber. That you can eat.

The Monster in My Pocket tee. For my little monster. Love the messy embroidery. Props to Cheri at I Am Momma Hear Me Roar.


I cannot believe how much this kid likes this blanket. Awesome use of scrap fabric. And he looks just so darn cute chewing on it all the time.

He's a pirate. All he needs is an eye patch.
Hand dyed onesie with a distressed freezer paper stencil.

That's all for today. Just thought I'd show what keeps me busy.

Thanks for stopping by.

  15. These are fabulous t-shirt designs! Exactly how many can you make in one day? =D It seems like you enjoy what you do. Designing shirts like these truly brings out your creativity and your kids' joy, doesn't it? By they way, you should do a blog about proper care for stenciled shirts. Mainly, how to wash and iron them.
