A Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Overdue Post!

So much has happened in the last year and a half that I just haven't taken the time to update this spot!

Our business has continued to grow, and my husband, Tim, now works full time sewing and embroidering. I just organize the bookkeeping/taxes, keep up with customer interaction, purchasing supplies, cutting out items, and sometimes help with shipping. That alone feels like a full time job (since I also get to run after my one year old while I do it)! But there's no way I could do this without him, or him without me. We're a great team. :)

I love having him home, and our daughter is spoiled having Daddy around all the time!

Hopefully I'll keep this site updated a little better in the days ahead! We are expanding our social media presence, so follow us on facebook, twitter, instagram, pinterest and tumblr! Not sure I'll be able to keep up all of the sites, but hope to see some of you there!

For now, check out some of our new items:

Paisley, Paisley, Everywhere!

Who doesn't love paisleys? I recently picked up a few more paisleys to add to my shop, and I just wanted to share them here. I love them! 

Blue Paisley Tie . . . the first fabric I had in stock, which quickly sold out! I was just able to get my hands on this one again (but not much of it), so it's now available for a limited time! 

Teal paisely: it's been my most popular paisley!

Teal/ Orange, Pink, and Blue/Green Paisley are also now available! 

Seams2u Is Global!

Here is an updated map! So far orders have been sent to 44 states, a few to Australia, several to Canada (4 different provinces) and one to Germany! So excited to watch Seams2u expand!

Thanks for your continued support and prayers! :)

All Over the Country, and Now the World!

On my last updated, August 24, I had sent orders to 11 states. Now just a month later, that number has jumped to 31 states (CA being the most popular with 15 orders!) as well as two to Ontario, and one to Germany! Seams2u has now gone global!! :)

Thanks for your continued support. I expect to hit 100 sales in the next couple days, since I'm currently at 97!!!

Seams2u Tags!

With any new order, you will now see a tag attached! :) I found as I was sewing, I would get mixed up as to which was the front and back of the diaper cover, and can't help but think that maybe some of the recipients did too! So my husband designed the little tags, I printed them, and here they are . . . all set to go!

I just love them!

And I think they look super cute on the diaper covers! :) 

And in other news, here's the latest fall argyle available (along with the Seams2u tag attached)!! :)

Christmas Prints!

The newest Christmas prints are now available! I have only had a chance to create one set so far, since I have been busy with other orders!, but here is what it looks like:

I also have these 2 other Christmas fabrics available right now. Hopefully I will have some pictures of these sets up soon! :)

Projects as of Late

I haven't been posting as much as I'd like. Part of that is due to a trip to visit some adorable nephews, and also because I've been so busy with orders the last week and a half!

As of right now, I've sold 22 orders on etsy, and 20 of them have been ties and diaper covers, and sometimes multiple sets! I've been sending lots to photographers for photo shoots, first birthday parties, newborn pictures, etc. I just received a link from a photographer with some of the pictures she took, and as soon as I receive permission I'll pass those along for everyone to check out!

Here's a couple photos of what I've been making recently:

The argyles have been, by far the most popular! I have made so many of them I think I am getting tired of looking at it! But they do come out cute, every time. :)

Well, off to work I go! I sent out one order this morning, and throughout the day I received orders for 5 more sets. So I need to get busy! :) 

Thanks for your continued support!

All Over the U.S!!

So far we have sent orders to 11 different states! There are still a few more in the works, but just wanted to share this map with you all!

Thanks for your continued support! It's been a lot of fun so far!

The next couple orders are ready to go, and here are a couple pictures. I think they're just so cute! :)

Another Cute Purse!

Ok so this one is so cute, and completely reversible! I just want to keep all these bags and purses! :) You can check it out here in my etsy shop.

It reminds me of bags I used to buy for my friends when I lived in Bangkok. Maybe I'll have to name it the Bangkok Bag. :)

Shipped!!

The first two orders from Seams2u at my etsy store were shipped out this morning! Now I have a couple other orders I need to get busy working on!

Thanks so much for your support and encouragement! :)

Grocery Bag Dispensers!

One of my friends asked me to make her a holder for her grocery bags, and here's the one I made:

I had some comments from friends asking for others, so here are a couple more I made, and have put in my etsy shop. I do have others I plan on making, but if you have a particular request for a color scheme or pattern, leave a comment!

Also, you can click on the pictures below and it will take you straight to my etsy shop! :)

Latest Items!

I have recently posted a few more items in my etsy shop . . . thanks for bearing with me as I get more inventory available! :)

A few weeks ago I listed this adorable lunch bag. Perfect for back to school! I think I'll have to make one for myself as well! :) I took pictures and plan on posting a tutorial, so you can make one for yourself! No promises of when that will be . . . we'll see when I get the time!

 
I also finished this purse and posted it for sale as well. I wanted to keep it so badly (cuz it's so cute!), but I know the last thing I need right now is another purse! So I decided to share it with someone who can make a little more use out of it than I can. And a great benefit of this purse is that this material (Schumacher Fergana Print), is usually over $70 a yard, but I was able to get it for a great deal, so I'm passing along that savings to whoever purchases it! Who doesn't like a great deal?!
