SNEAK peak
"June" this piece is named after a client's grandma. Her fondest memories are picking and of course eating blueberries with her grandma. My daughter Sailor also loves blueberries! I hope everyone loves this piece as much as we do!





SNEAK peak for the Boys trunks &  Girls swim suit one piece.
"Graceful rescue" (Jonah and the whale)
Limited sizes will be offered.
 
I wanted to do another biblical smocking plate. I kept trying to find a way to do Jonah and the whale without it being scary or gruesome. I just could not wrap my head around a cute design. Rather I changed up the whale itself to resemble an actual whale that might have swallowed Jonah. Hence the frowning whale--




SNEAK peak "James" (cotton bulbs) shown is the jon jon above and bubble below. This will also be offered as a dress with the same neck line.
This piece was inspired by a client. Her family has been cotton farming for generations and the family name that has been carried over the years is James.

I just wanted to do something nautical on a bathing suit. Traditional and classic. I hope you all love it.



 My daughter is into animals right now. We are working on her speech and animal noises are a way to do her therapies. I very much wanted to do another biblical smocked item and so Noah's ark was an easy choice. It is called "The Promise" because after the flood God promised Noah to never flood the entire earth again.



Everyone was talking about getting silhouettes done of their children. I wanted to do something like that on a smocking plate. That is how I came up with Seahorse Silhouette bathing suit.



Some places do giveaways or drawings as a way to thank their clients. I decided that I wanted to do something that was meaniful and could last a lifetime. I created this piece for a mommy who loves Damask and very much wanted a bloomer set. A way I could honor her was to not only make it but to name it after her beautiful and girly daughter. That is why this is called "The Alexis".


 I simply wanted to come up with a design that would be easy for the supplier to goof on. I figured three palmetto trees would suffice on a two piece bathing suit. They did it and it turned out too cute!!! 



Boys shirt. I had to do something. Did not have a sample. Just a computer picture I drew up and it turned out fantastic. Thank you to the moms that took a leap of Faith and ordered from me without a Sample.






The biggest hit yet is the Easter Cross called Always Remember. It is to help us to remember Christ dying on the cross for our sins. This was inspired by a vintage postcard. 



This was the Valentines Day fail. I designed this with my Navy family in mind. Only to not sell enough fast enough and had to cancel and refund everyone. But hey Sailor got her outfit!



My daughter was having a Peter Rabbit Birthday and I wanted to create something she could wear there. Sometimes ideas just come together so easily. Below is a picture of her at her Birthday Party.




Breakfast at Tiffanys.  I watched the Audry Hepburn movie and I thought maybe I can make a smocked item that can remind me of that. It was not supposed to have rick rack and there was to be pearls on the smocking plate. Either way it turned out beautiful and I hope others will approve.

Paradise


Amy is a mom of 4 girls and lives in Hawaii. She has supported me on my venture since I sold my first smocked item. One week she bought 9 bishops from me. In efforts to say thank you I decided to do a smocked garment with her family in mind. Later I will reveal this creation to you all. I hope she approves.

Much Smock Love,
Faith

"Anchors Away"


 My granddad was in the Navy. (He recently passed) My husband's granddad and father were in the Navy. Hence my daughter's name, Sailor. So I wanted to create something that would represent all of them. I wanted to something classic and simple. I think I achieved that with this bubble I created. The Anchor reminds me more than just of my daughter, some say the Anchor means Hope others say Faith. Either way I see the Cross and I see my family when I look at this Anchor.

Much Smock Love,

Faith

"Lets Go Fly a Kite"


One windy day when we were sitting around as a family I said to my husband "We should go fly kites today". I quickly retracted my statement because I could not think of what my daughter would wear to capture this first time daddy and daughter moment. So...as any normal mom would do, I decided right then I needed to make a kite outfit. 

However, I wanted it to be more than just about kites. I wanted it to open a conversation with our children about who made the wind. So I inserted crosses into the center of the kites to remind us to take each moment to share the Creator with our children. Below is the moment I envisioned when I created this item.

Much Smock Love,
