A New Owl!

Check out how cute this little Ric Rack Owl is!  Kate from See Kate Sew picked me {and a few others} to test out her pattern!!  I made one for each of the boys...and of course could only grab a picture of 1 of the boys with his owl...the other 2 were non-compliant.  Well, ok...I fibbed a little bit.  Ethan was at school and Griffin wouldn't sit still....he kept throwing his owl across the room.  So Sam was the only willing one! :)

Whats not to love about that cute little owl!?  They would make a great gift, and with Christmas just around the corner?   Imagine that cute owl peering out the top of your little one's stocking waiting to be loved to so many years to come!  The pattern is available here!  Thanks so much Kate for allowing me to test your pattern! :)

Back-2-School.

These cute little eco friendly lunch bags listed in the shop just in time for back to school!

They are prefect for that little one in your life!  Lined with interfacing and insulbrite to help your childs lunch stay cooler longer!  How cute are they!? :)

Children at Play!!

Oh my goodness!!  Why have I not heard of Sarah Jane Fabric before?!  How has this slipped by me?  I literally stumbled upon it yesterday when I was looking at iron on embroidery patterns, and then I discovered the cutest fabric ev-ah.  Not kidding.  I bought all the boy collections.  I can see a super cute quilt in the near future.  And some cute bibs.  Oh my gosh.  I can hardly contain my excitement!!!  It's a tough call, but I think this one is my favorite:

It's just all American boy, and so incredibly cute.  It's really really hard to find such cute boy fabric, that would work well for an older boy too.  I am so excited.  I think I might end up changing up E's room with this line!

Argus Leader!

YellowPlumBlossoms was featured in the Argus Leader yesterday!  For those of you who don't live in the area, it's our local newspaper.  It was a really sweet article that also featured another cute Etsy shop Sweet Sapling.  You can read the article HERE.

In other notes, G had his 9 month check the other day, and believe it or not, this little cutie weighs 25 lbs!!!  That's only 3lbs LESS than my 2 1/2 year old weighs!  Wowza!  Try carrying that on your hip all day! :)

So what do you guys think of the new Ann Kelle prints?  Love them?  What's not to love about them!?  I just got a few pieces in the mail yesterday, and I am so happy with them.  I ordered the cute little turtles, and birds, owls, and zig zag print.  I can't tell you how cute they are!!  I see some cute bibs in the works with these.

Made with Love.

Monaco Patchwork.

I have finally finished the Monaco patchwork baby quilt.  I love how it turned out.  I decided to go 100% organic and use organic cotton Sherpa for the backing.  Have you ever worked with that stuff?!  WoW!  It's oh so soft and just gorgeous.  I am thoroughly impressed and will be buying more, hands down.  It's nice and thick which allowed me to get away without using any batting.

This time, rather than quilting it, I hand tied in all the corners of the squares with light pink embroidery floss.  I am so impressed with how it turned out, I want to make one for G {in the boy pattern of course!}

It's in the shop, go check it out!
