Ebay / Etsy / Amazon Handmade

I started selling on Ebay on January 31,2002. The first thing I made was an embroidered patriotic star denim jacket. I wish I still had a picture of that!

I am always sewing! 'Noah's Submarine Pjs' 'Noah meets the Sharks' 'Noah and the Frogs' 'Noah and the Foxes' These fleece pjs are so unbelievably soft and comfortable that you will n...

Meet Liam! Cotton Knit Pajamas for Boy Dolls

I'd love to introduce you to my addition of Cotton Knit Pajamas for Cabbage Patch 16" Boy Dolls! Does your little one have a boy doll they love to cuddle with all night long?  Here are some pjs to choose from so he doesn't feel left out at bedtime. The Liam Pj is the boy version of the 'Emma' sleeper. It is also made out of cotton knit fabric for that same lightweight feel with stretch .                                                               For these, I chose 5 fabrics. Aren't they cute? I cut them all out. Here they are waiting to be sewn. They are sewn exactly as the Emma pjs were (story below). Here is the zipper being topstitched down. 3 days later.... They all feature a soft cotton ribbed neckline.  We have 'Liam in Yellow Stripes' And while we are at it, 'Lia...
