My lucky friend Christene. She got a fancy new embroidery machine. Lucky me. She let me come over last week and, while our kids played five hundred tiny toy mix-up, I watched her work up a flower applique on this top for Addie.
With Olivia in school all day (sniff sniff), the little girls took great naps today and I was able to put together this little pair of ruffle pants to match. Another stroke of luck.
Addie was quite agreeable to taking a little break from her afternoon gymnastics routines on the couch to try on her new outfit. She flashed me a whole bunch of sweet and sassy smiles while I snapped her photo, then put her leotard back on and held out her hand for her chocolate chip payment. The other gymnasts held out their hands, too. Lucky girls.
Any lucky embroidery machine-owners out there? How I wish I had one of my very own…

I have an embroidery machine and it is best/worst thing I could have gotten. I love all the things I can create but then again I don’t find myself taking the time to sew like I used to. I love to smock but haven’t since I got my machine. I get a lot of requests from friends and it is fun to do things for others and see their enjoyment. Check out my facebook page “cutie bug designs” After you click photos, go over and click See all photos for all the albums to open up.
What I absolutely love about what you did is the complementing pants, how it is all pulled together. Also the design on the shirt is gorgeous, really more than just cutesie.
Have fun creating, great job.
