One of our most popular projects this year was our Holiday Sweet Hoops.

Today’s project is just like those, but personalized!

We love these as ornaments for everyone in your family.  Like the Holiday Sweet Hoops, they can be embroidered.  We took the simple approach and just added some embroidery, outlining the letters.

You can find the Monogram Sweet Hoops here.  On Etsy here.

One last thing- you have until the end of the day on Monday to sign up for our Feed Company Block of the Month!

Monday is also the deadline to pre-order any of the other Feed Company quilt kits.

Oh, I almost forgot.  We actually have one more project for our 12 Days.  Kind of like a baker’s dozen.  It’s my favorite.  But it isn’t finished yet.  Hopefully we will have it for you next week!  I’m keeping my fingers crossed.  Have a great weekend!

My favorite family activity during the holidays is baking cookies.  Especially to give away or take to a cookie exchange.  We have the perfect little Cookie Bag to wrap those up in.

The labels with this project are a little unique compared to all our other labels.  My mom is an artist.  Like a real artist, not someone on the computer (like my sister and I).  We can’t draw a lick, but we are pretty nifty with the computer.  My mom is the exact opposite.  Really good actually drawing and painting.  The computer?  Um, not so much.

And since everything is done digitally now, her artwork can’t be used as it should.  But with these labels, we actually converted her artwork to a digital file where my sister and I could manipulate it and turn it into something we could reproduce.  Yea!  She was pretty happy about that.  These were actually done in 1997.  So they are kind of vintage.  Right?

You can find the labels, patterns and fabric kits here.  On Etsy here.

We will be wrapping everything up tomorrow.  See you then!

Making these are so easy.  It comes as an iron-on transfer.  You simply iron it on to the fabric and you can add embroidery if you like.  If you don’t want to embroider, no worries!  They look cute either way.

Here is a close-up look at the embroidery.  I love the texture that it gives to the image.

The transfers come in four different designs, each measuring approximately 5.5″ x 8.5″.

If you haven’t tried the transfers before, don’t be scared.  They are very easy and we even give you a practice image to try before you iron your main image.

The transfers are packaged with the embroidery instructions, as well as the instructions to make the pillow wrap.  There is no additional pattern to purchase. You may also want to try them on a kitchen towel!

We  didn’t make a fabric kit- because the wrap is just cream fabric.  The actual pillow?  Those were made with Feed Company fabric.  And we don’t have any left. We can’t wait until next year to make more Christmas projects with that plaid!

The transfers are available here and on Etsy here.

Have a great day and we will see you back here tomorrow!

You can order the label with just the words as show (merry, joy, believe and cheers) or you can personalize them with 4 names or words.

Each label sheet includes 4 designs.  Here they are with the words:

And here they are with names:

I love this idea for a holiday party- just wrap the cozy around a cup and you have an instant place card at your table.  Or, they make the perfect gift.  Just run to the coffee shop, wrap the personalized cozy around the cup and enjoy the morning with a great friend.

You can find everything here.  Or on Etsy here.

3 more days!  See you tomorrow.

We love making our own gift bags.  Especially when you can reuse them.  We call this one our Wrap It Up Gift Envelope.

And we took some of our most popular Christmas labels and made them tiny.  They are so adorable in person.  You can get a sheet of four designs, or because we know about 90 percent of you just want the mini snowman, you can get a sheet of those as well.

Here is just the snowman sheet:

They are a great size to put anything smallish- 6″ x 6.5″.  They are perfect for gift cards of any size.

You can find the pattern, fabric kits (which make 2) and labels here.  They are in our Etsy shop here.

Have a great day and we will be back tomorrow!

Our Canvas Wreath is so fun to make- you may make more than one!

Here is a close up.

You can find the pattern and fabric kit here and on Etsy here.

We also finally posted the fabric kit, pattern and labels for the November Label Crew.  Sorry it was so late this month!  If you forgot, here is the project- our Mini Mitts.

We have one last project for you this week and another 5 next week.  See you tomorrow!

Today is for all you snowman lovers.  We made a bunting out of them!

The fabric kit includes enough to make the three as pictured.  But I just had an idea.  Wouldn’t those make the cutest countdown/advent project ever!  All you need is 25 snowmen (which would be 7 fabric kits) and a sheet of our countdown numbers and you have it!  I don’t have a photo of what it would look like (because I just thought of it), but here is what the numbers look like:

Those numbers would fit perfectly on the heart pocket.  I might just have to make that when I get some time.  If any of you decide to do that, be sure to send a photo!

Just click on the images of the numbers for more information.  To get the snowmen, click here.  If you prefer Etsy, click here.

I’m sorry this is such a short post!  My fingers are cold!  See you tomorrow!

Today we are featuring 3 new art prints.  These are my favorite gifts to give when I have no idea what to give!  Like for neighbors, teachers, relatives.  They also make great hostess gifts.

They can be personalized or left blank.

The prints come in either 8″ x 10″ or 16″ x 20″.  They can be found here, or on our Etsy site here.

Now we couldn’t just design those cute images and have nothing to sew!  Every year, one of our most popular items is a kitchen towel.  Look how cute these labels look on this year’s!

You can also choose the two other labels:

These, too, can be personalized or left blank.  They can be found here and on Etsy here.  The towel kit is sold separately from the labels and pattern- that way you can choose which label you would like, or make the towel without the label.  Plus, the labels can be used for lots of things- they would be adorable as gift tags!

Many of you are in the deep freeze, just like us.  Hang in there, it sounds like it might be at least a week until we thaw out.  By the way, my furnace went out in the middle of the night last night.  Nice timing!  I’m crossing my fingers it will be fiexed by the time I get home!

See you tomorrow.  As long as I’m not frozen.

Every year we design a set of personalized labels you can put on all your holiday creations.  We wanted this year’s to have a vintage look, so we distressed them just a bit.

This little truck is my favorite!

You can find the labels here or on our Etsy site here.

You might also be interested in last year’s Christmas labels.  If you like these better, they are still available here.  Of course, the 2013 would be changed to 2014.

We have only just begun this week!. Come back each day to see what’s new!

If you signed up for the Feed Co Block of the Month (and if you did, thank you so much!), this project will give you a little embroidery practice for your quilt blocks.  And if you were worried about the embroidery in the Block of the Month quilt, you may want to try this to see how fun it is.

The kit includes the printed fabric to embroider on, the wooden hoop and the instructions to complete one hoop project.  The hoops measure 3″ and there are eight different styles.

We took these cuties to a local show in September and this one sold out the first hour.  Not surprising.  Some of you really like snowmen!

This one is my personal favorite.  And it looks so cute laying on the plaid from Feed Company.  Too bad we won’t have any of that this Christmas.  Just enough to take the photo.  Oh well, maybe next Christmas!

The checked fabric in the last two photos are from Feed Company also.  Don’t have any of that either.  Boo.

You can find the kits here.  Or you can also find them on our Etsy site.

Some of you have asked what the backing fabric is on the Feed Co BOM quilt.  I totally forgot to take a photo of the back, but the fabric we are using is the black bandanna, pictured in this photo:

Oh, and if you are going to Hollyhill Quilt Shoppe in Oregon this weekend, make sure to say hi to my mom.  She will be teaching this very project at their store Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

One more thing, if you are looking for the fabric kit to this month’s Label Crew, we will get it listed early next week.  Everything was slightly delayed this month because the material used for the labels was back ordered.  Which means everything around here has been back ordered.  We did get the Label Crew out, just everything else is backed up!

Have a great weekend and we will see you on Monday!
