Sand Baby………

My little one doing what she loves most…… getting dirty.

Some catching up to do….

I am finally catching my breath this week. Wow, this summer has turned out to be anything but boring. I can’t complain though. I spent some time with my lovely sister, who I wish didn’t live so far away. I spent some much needed down time camping with my family. I can’t even believe how much I enjoy getting out there and having no electronic services. My cell doesn’t even work and it leaves me with nothing to do, but decompress.

School is almost back in and that excites and frightens me at the same time. The kids grow so fast. I still need to get the family out and do some family pictures before the summer ends, but that seems to take the back burner.

 

Anyway…. I have some photos that I have been meaning to share with you for some time, but the slow computer issue really had to take a back seat to much more pressing issues this summer. So here are some of the photos I have been stockpiling for a slow day to share.

I did some pattern testing for Patty at ModKid Boutique in June and I have to tell you…. This pattern is amazing. There are three different styles and sizes go up to 7, so most of you who sew will find this pattern useful for someone you know. The pattern was very easy to read and use. I love the flat front waistband and there are so many possibilities. I mixed up some of the pockets and had some fun with it.

She is taking wholesale orders now. I will also be ordering some, so if you are interested in getting your retail order in early, please contact me grahamcrafters@hotmail.com 

You can see that I used some of Patty’s new line of fabric and I simply adore it! You can find Mezzanine here at Michael Miller.

 

 

I told them to give me a “sassy look” and this is what I got:)

 

 

They make perfect back to school pants!

 

I am working on some more photos to share and hope to get them up in the next couple days. More to come. Gotta run for now.

 

TTYL,

It’s amazing! Including handmade findings in your handmade jewelry would definitely increase the value of your work as a whole. Plus you’re buying handmade for your supplies and everybody wins!

Bridal Daze...........

To help all those brides and wedding planners who the glazed over effect due to all the crazy planning that goes into a wedding, the Etsy Twitter Team has decided to host a Bridal Daze Event this week.

 

In the recent past, I have had brides order several of my Incognito Wallets for their bridesmaid gifts. So I have decided to offer them at a discounted price to help out those overextended nerves and pocketbooks.

Presenting a price that has never been offered to the public, $15 Incognito Wallets! Just mention you saw it in the Bridal Daze Event.

 

There many more participants that are creating things to ease the stress of wedding planning and they will be featured on the EtsyTwitter Blog daily. So don't forget to stop by daily.

What cute fabric jewelry........

I just stopped by the etsytwitter blog and saw the shop of the week.

 Tamdoll has one of the cutest pieces of fabric jewelry.

A new addition to the family........

Nope, not another kid;) Just a new addition to the family of services that AbbyChase offers!

Now that the sun is shining and the flowers are blooming, I am aching to get out there and photograph much more. And after the excitement my little girls felt when they saw that they were published in the new ModKid pattern, I feel it is a natural addition to our services.

So it is with great excitement that we announce our brand new modeling services! We can model just about any size of boutique clothing and accessories. We can even do women's accessories and many styles of product photography.

If you are interested in these services, you can email me grahamcrafters@hotmail.com and you can also check out our flickr page

Also, here is a peek at a few of my past modeling shoots. You can see much more in the flickr pages of my product photography too.
