2006 Gifts in August

For Mom's BD and for my little friend, Victoria's BD in August, I made the following. The close up of TinkerBell is to show the Swavorski crystals on her wings.

Mom's shoe bag (for traveling) was sentimental to me too because I used a partial pillow that her late mother had started (hand embroidery) and never got to finish, and I added my own embroidery to it. I told Mom the gift was from her Mom and me. She appreciated it much.

2006 Gifts

This catch up of posts is very time-consuming. I'm going to stop soon, as my Saturday is slipping away from me.

March 2006 - Back pack for my nephew, Nathan.

July 2006 - Personalized Jersey type shirt for my niece, Tanya (Her mom says she wears it a lot - always good to know these things)

2005 Babies - PI

In Feb 2005, we added 2 babies to our family. They were first children for my nephew and cousin. Here are the gifts I created for them. They included personalized clothing and even personalized matching hat and booties that I made from scratch.

Of course, there were lots for my great nephew. He was my first. (Please disregard the scratches I made on the picture - to protect the innocent and all that kind of stuff.)

Home Decor 2003 - 2004

I've given up on being able to get these in exact chronological order. I keep finding images that I skipped over.

Anyway, I made some home decor items for us for the holidays. I also made embroidered pillows, so I can feel like my decor is changing all the time. They included these:

I call the Christmas hand towels my programmer's towels. As you may guess, Santa is my hubbie who can always be found on his computer at all times. And the Vixen on the toilet paper was my first test on embroidering on TP.
