Crayon Rolls are so handy to put in your purse or the kids' bags. With their names on them, there's no fussing over whose crayons they are either. I made these for a friend of my daughter who has two children. She liked them very much. This is the crayon roll nicely rolled and tied with its ribbon! Neat, isn't it? I have decided to get an Etsy account and sell some of the things I make. So far I've given away everything I have made. I need to replenish my supplies!



Another Pickle Pie Design

I put a clip on the back of this rather than a pin. I thought Edward's dad or granddad might like to wear one, too.

I made a birthday badge for Emma's 2nd birthday which is coming up soon. It's really cute!

Some of the gifts for Baby Edward - Baby Bunting Boy Doll, Bib, Pacifier Clip, 3 Monogrammed Appliqued Diaper burp Cloths (only one is shown -- I love the material I found). At the bottom right is the Baby's First Blankie. At the left is the Pacifier Case, Pacifier Wipes Case, and the Baby Wipes Case all digitized by Jennilee at www.Digistitches.com. That embroidery machine and those great designers and digitizers make me look good, don't they? Ashley said the gifts were a hit at the shower! I love making these, so if you would like to get in touch with me to make some for you, please do so.

I made these for my daughter to give a friend who is having a baby. These sprinkler covers are to keep mommy dry when changing baby boy! Annie was surprised when she saw these.
This is a little blanket I made for her also. It's made of Minky on one side and is lined with one of the fabrics I used for the sprinkler covers. I love the embroidered "Baby Boy" quilting on the Minky.

This is a crayon roll I made for Emma for Easter. It's a really cute and convenient way to carry her crayons with her. They fit right in Mom's bag or the diaper bag.






The baby boy doll is part of the gift basket prepared for Annie. I made a baby girl doll for Emma when she was having a hard time giving up the pacifier. It became the "Binky Babe". Made in-the-hoop on the absolutely wonderful embroidery machine it is actually the "Baby Bunting Boy Doll" designed by Lisa at PicklePie Designs. Thank you so much, Lisa, for great designs! If anyone is interested in these for your little ones, please let me know. I've made them in Super Minkee, Minkee, and flannel. They are made in the 5 x 7 inch hoop. Measurements differ a bit, depending on the material. Made in flannel, they tend to be smaller, because of less stretch in the material when stuffed.
