handmade for hc

My friend, Heather (H.C.) just moved from Huntsville, Alabama to the top of a mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee. She saw my recent blog post where I had made a onesie with a bowtie and wanted one for her little guy.

I couldn't decide which houndstooth to use (Alabama football fans) so I made two...


But then I felt as if her daughter might feel a little left out, so she got a shirt, too!


So sorry for the blurry pictures...I was in a hurry to get these to the post office so I only had a quick second to use the old camera phone.

Heather and her family (Hi A.C. We miss you too!) are taking a trip to the beach this weekend (so jealous) and she wanted some cute towels for the kiddos. Here is my first attempt at making beach towels.












Well? What do you think? I think they'll be rockin' them out! Need a personalized beach towel this summer? You know who to call!

onesies for baby H

My friend Monisha back in Cincinnati just had a beautiful 

baby boy named Hezekiah.  Of course that gave 

me an excuse to hop on the sewing machine!

I made two onesie sets for him...

The "H" is for both his first and last name...

His daddy is a huge fan of wearing bow ties,
so what would be more appropriate?

I just love the bright colors!  I hope he likes them!

a whale of a onesie

I've been at it again...












My friend, Kelly, that I used to teach with just had a baby boy. I made her a onesie set before the baby was born (and before she knew what she was having). I didn't really like the one I originally made for her, so I decided to make a better one for her.

I had this whale fabric, though not much. But it was just enough to appliqué the whale and make the booties. I just love the grays in the fabrics, so modern!

This would be a really cute shower theme...are your wheels turning? I could even make custom invitations to match!

I'm working on a variety of sets to put in my etsy shop. Stay tuned!

dare i say...auburn

My mother-in-law commissioned me to make a gift for a baby shower she was going to. The mother-to-be is having twins, boy and girl, and both parents attended Auburn University.

(My husband will NOT be happy with this post as he attended the University of Alabama)

I made 2 onesie sets in coordinating fabric, but opposite for each baby...



























What did you think? Does your baby need to be outfitted for game day?

"babee" bee onesie

In my last post I showed the baby shower stuff I made for the "What Will It Bee?" baby shower. I also made a onesie, burp cloth, and booties set to match!





















Do you have a themed shower you are planning? I can make anything you need in any color combination you'd like! Email me! blinginghomethebacon@me.com

it's a shower

A friend of mine has quite a lineup of baby showers, so she asked me to make sets of baby gifts for her...















Sorry for the photo quality...I forgot to take pictures at home and had to take them with my phone while at school.

The onesies, burp cloths, and booties can all be custom made to your liking. These make great shower gifts. I can do themes as well. Hosting a shower? What about my handmade shower invitations with a coordinating onesie set as a gift? I can deliver locally in Cincinnati...or ship anywhere to you!

owl punch onesie baby card

My mom came up with this idea to turn the owl punch

into a onesie!  It's super-easy... just punch out the owl

and trim it down to look like the base of the onesie...

then add sleeves and decorate!
