I Heart Appliques :)

Latest projects!

I made a onesie for Claire (yes, I will be putting her in onesies until they don't make them in her size anymore, or she is potty trained...whichever comes first, haha) and one for my friend, Megan's upcoming baby girl, Nora :)

The butterfly is on Claire's and the apple is on Nora's. It's SO EASY. You just use fusible webbing to "stick" it on (iron I mean), and then get some embroidery floss, half it (there are 6 individual "strings" in each piece of floss...just get it down to 3 bc otherwise it's too bulky for the delicate shirt) and do a blanket stitch around, and voila!! Cuteness!! I usually have done these with just doing a zigzag stitch on my machine around each applique, but this is SO MUCH CUTER I think!
I also made little clips for Claire. Even easier, just my glue gun, 2 buttons, some ribbon, and me.
