So, just like everyone else I am also doing a Black Friday Sale.  I have never liked getting out in the crowds to fight my way through a store to get those envied sales items.  So, I always have resorted to the internet.  It is my easy way out - no stores, no people, no lines.  Anyway yesterday I told you that I was working on a elf Christmas stocking and here it is....

Each stocking is personalized.

I also have this peasant tunic list on my Facebook fan page.  I made one of these for my daughter, my niece and my granddaughter to wear to church last Sunday and they thought they were just awesome in them.

I love the detail these fabric flowers add to this dress.

I can't wait to start on the new outfits I have planned for the girls to wear Sunday.  I have been so busy the last few months with homeschooling and I have been blessed to have so many orders come my way that the girls winter wardrobe had to be put on hold.  Now is their time....in between orders and school of course LOL.
I hope you all have a great weekend, don't fight the crowds too much, and be safe!!!

I finished up all my orders this week and I was soooo happy.  Of course that only lasted one day.  After I delivered the majority of my orders and got home I had more waiting on me.  Trust me - I am so Thankful they were waiting. I appreciate each and everyone of my customers.  They always make me feel so good about the work I do, and don't complain if I get inspired and get a little creative with their order from time to time. Thank you.  So, I wanted to show you a few more pictures of my recent orders. My husband took the pictures for me.  I was so busy trying to finish up the other night, that I didn't have time and he so graciously agreed to help me.  He did a great job. Thank you Hugh!!!

I have put this ribbon Santa on everything.  My customers love it!! My Christmas Clause as I like to call it.

I love Zebra stripe!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE

I am working on Christmas stockings today, so I'll try to post them this evening.  If you have time stop by my facebook fan page and check out some other items.  I sure would appreciate it.  Have a great day!!

I am back up and at em..I've have been working non-stop (seams like it---NOT really) the last few days trying to get caught up.  Most of my orders have been t-shirts, but every now and then I get to throw a pair of ruffled pants in to match a shirt.  Today I finished up an outfit I've been working on for a customer. and I am absolutely amazed. I LOVE IT!!!  I'm a sucker for cute outfits, but this one is too C U T E!!!  I've been sewing for my children for years and I love tradition, but I love all these new boutique items that are coming out too.  Most of the time if I do something that's not tradition its because someone request them..which is where this one came from.  Only now I think my girls are going to have one for Christmas themselves now, instead of something more tradition (as usual).  Anyway enough talk....here's the picture

Ruffled Sleeves with rick rack at top and bottom.  Bow on each arm.

Ribbon Santa Applique

This is a three piece set that includes a swing top that has adjustable straps, ruffled sleeve t-shirt that has rick rack and bows on each sleeve, and ruffled pants to match.  Honestly my photography lacks BIG time..and these pictures come no where to doing this outfit justice.  However if your interested in this outfit or one like it, feel free to come by my etsy shop and check out this listing.

See you soon!!

I love Christmas.  I love the food, family, decorating, the smells...it makes me feel all warn and cozy inside.  I don't want to skip Thanksgiving though, so I'm working on fall orders.

Love Love Love This...Brown zebra print and orange.

These were a customer order who absolutely loved them.  He also has a set like this with a pumpkin instead of a Christmas tree.
If you like anything you see here head on over to my facebook page and check out my page and my e-shop.  Most of my orders are custom, so don't be afraid to ask.

Have a fabulous Night!!!

Today has been a long day and a very productive one as well.  I was such a good mom. Started out by making homemade biscuits and gravy, then went on to their school work..  During quite time I started on some mending I had to do (hem pants for my wonderful oldest daughter).  While doing all this I managed to straighten the house while my also wonderful husband washed clothes.  This all done by lunch time and the day just went on from there.  To make a long day a little shorter I managed to get a little sewing in.

This is the cutest top I think I have ever made!!!

This was my favorite project of the day....ruffled socks.

This was actually an outfit I made Tuesday night, but its so cute I had to share it.  Nella wore it to the fall festival at the preschool and everyone had hissy fits over it!!!!

 So now its 11:30 and I am exhausted and ready for bed, but I can't seem to stop thinking about what I want to start on tomorrow.  I'm sure it will come to me when I sit down to my sewing machine and start to work TOMORROW.

Have a great night

My husband and I have been over the local toy bowl in our community for the last 4 years.  Tonight was our last game of the season.  We love being able to support our children and our niece and nephew. The boys seem to have football in the blood while the girls live to cheer.  Our whole family loves football from pee wee to pro football. It is so bad that our 3 year old grand daughter walks around most of the day doing cheers or getting down to hike a football LOL. However now its time to get back to my other passion sewing.  I have so many ideas floating around in my head its unreal.  I just hope and pray at some point I actually get to make them.  So wish me luck and keep checking in to see what's new.

Have a blessed Day

Nellaboos Facebook page is trying to get 350 fans..so to encourage you to send out invites I am going to give away a Christmas t-shirt  if we can reach that goal by November 15.  So go on over the Nellaboos and send out those invites.

Have a blessed Day

I have been trying to come up with an idea for a sewing tutorial..just haven't been able to settle down to do one.  I want to do one that is different from everything that is on the web these days.  There are tons of peasant top, pillowcase, and pants tutorials, so I really don't think we need another one.  Though you guys might want to throw a few suggestions out there.


Have a blessed day

I love fall.  The cool weather sets in and I want to start hibernating.  It also gets my creativity going.  Today's outfit was a customer inspiration (Thank you Misty).


After I took this picture I went back and added orange rick rack and bows to the sleeves of the shirt. It really made the outfit.  If you like this outfit drop by my Facebook page Nellaboos.  Information for ordering this and other outfits can be found there.

Talk to you Soon
Eva

Here is a sneak peak at the outfits I will be posting on my Facebook page tomorrow. Boys and girls outfits for your very special little one. My granddaughter wanted to try everything on and couldn't understand why the new thing Nana was making were not hers.  She only has to be patient for a few more days ;)
 

Jon Jon's - great gift idea for the holidays

Girls Love their bows.  I know mine do!!!

This was ordered by a friend for her little girl.  My granddaughter couldn't understand why this one wasn't hers.

Cute, Cute, Cute.......

I absolutely love this dress.  It reminds me of the ones my mom would dress me in.

The perfect Alabama Football Dress!!!

Have a wonderful evening!!!Talk to you soon.

Eva

How about some game day inspiration for those of us here in the great state of Alabama.  We are definitely a house divided, but we all love our football.

Come on over to Nellaboos and order one for your little one.  I can also put these logos on t-shirts and Jon Jon's for boys.

We have had a very long day.  My daughter has been sick for the last few weeks and we ended up going back to the doctor today.  I love the cold weather, but I'm not crazy about it and the rain together.  I have two new designs to post so I'll get on with it......The first is an older one from www.embroidery-boutique.com that I have used for a couple of years.  It works well for a boys or girls shirt.  Just add a little bow to its antler and you have a girl reindeer.  The second is another new one from www.planetapplique.com.  All childrens white long sleeve tees are just $15...Adults are $20.  If you would like a different color shirt there will be an extra $3 charge per shirt.  I'm not sure what my cut off date for custom orders will be, so go ahead and place your order now.  Have a blessed evening.

Hope everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We went to my mom's house and had a wonderful time.  The kids including the adult kids had a great time.  They all play football in the yard until after dark.  My 2 year old granddaughter couldn't understand why she couldn't get out there and play with the big kids.  She had fun learning how to ride a scooter though so for a time she was content.  It will be a day they all will remember.


So now its time to get back to the sewing and embroidering.  I have a few new designs that I purchased from www.plantapplique.com over Thanksgiving so I'm working on t-shirt orders.  If you are interested in a cute Christmas shirt visit my facebook fan page and order one.  Just post or send me an email me at nellaboos@gmail.com.









My facebook link is http://www.facebook.com/appliquecafe?v=photos#!/pages/Guin-AL/Nellaboos/120556936371.  I will be posting more designs over the next few days.

Sizes available from newborn to size 14. These pants are Bubble Gum Pink. They are also available in Lime green.

I'm finally ready for summer. I know I'm a little late. (Had an accident earlier this year and its set me back) Oh well, I'll get caught up. I have been working on a lot of new outfits for this summer.









I love this boys shorts set. No little boy can pass up a fire truck.














and this jeans capri set complete with the princess carriage.







We've also been doing some goofing off...........














Still more to do so I'll will post more soon.

Daddy's Little Girl
















Love these new spring outfits. They fit the season so well. Like a breeze of fresh air. The girls loved hunting their eggs in them Easter Sunday.













Had to look like the big girls.

This is such a beautifully designed top. A talented lady from Carolina Fair Designs designed this magnificent top that can also be made into a dress. If your interested in the pattern or a pre-made top or dress visit either of our etsy stores.


Pair the top with a pair of jeans or these wonderful ruffled pants that are pictured.

Oooooh how beautiful! I love this dress. My girls are all ready fighting over who is going to get this one. I guess I better start on the next one quick. This dress is a take on a smocked yoke dress without the smocking. I haven't seemed to master the smocking part yet. Guess I'll figure out one of these days. The dress is made out of a micro check chocolate brown fabric and the trim on the yoke is a micro dot pink and chocolate brown. The flower on the yoke is made of the trim fabric with a cover button for the center. The back also features two covered buttons.








If you are interested in the dress please email me and I'll send you the information. This would make a great Easter dress for your little girl. It can also be recreated in many different colors for a more Easter feel. Have something else in mind we could also take about other options.

I love Christmas. The food, decorating, tree, family, I love all of it. My husband says I go overboard. He just hates getting everything out of storage. Between all the decorating I've been working on a few new projects, hope you like them. Send me an email and let me know what you think.










I think these are too cute. My 7 year old (even though she's too old) wants one. There are so many combination of fabric you could use with these. This one is sure to make any little girls day. My granddaughter thinks she's an absolute princess when she wears these.
