A Summer’s Day’s Pinks

Well it is just too darn hot and muggy here to go outside to take any pink pictures, even though our bougainvillea is blooming like mad, as are our Mexican bird of paradise, so pretty…We are getting the tail end of a monsoon coming at us from Arizona and the Baja…enough to make it humid and muggy, but not a lick of rain..BOO!

Anyway, in celebration of Pink Saturday and staying INDOORS, I thought I would share some new fabric I just received..I am so anxious to fashion these fabrics into aprons, time now to put your dibs in!  Taking orders!

These are called Sugar Roses…Ah what stunning fabric and vibrant color..isn’t it scrumptious?

I am going to pair it with this..

Or maybe a cute paisley?

Paired with this..

Lastly, some sweet glittery fairy fabric

Paired with this..

,

So..am I on the right track??  Will get these sewn up this week and get them listed in my ETSY Shop..

I am sharing this for Pink Saturday, please visit our sweet hostess Beverly over at How Sweet the Sound, and while you are there, pay a visit to some of my fellow Pinkies!

Have a wonderful and blessed weekend~

Fab Fabric

As many of you know, I LOVE fabric.  All kinds of fabric..My best kind of day is spent at a fabric store or quilt shop, or shopping online for fabric..since it’s Pink Saturday, I thought I would share one of my latest fabric bundle purchases.. I just love this group..will be making aprons for my soon to open ETSY shop (stay tuned!) and leftovers will go into cute little clothes for my sweet granddaughter Grace Lily.

Without further adieu

then there is this adorable fabric that I am working on right now

these two together are just too much!  And here I am hard at work earlier this evening..

I am linking up with Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday, please stop by and leave a comment on her page, and visit a few of my fellow Pinkies!

Think Pink!

Pink is for ‘Friends’

Let me explain.  But first I must thank our Miss Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for being our hostess each and every Saturday..Please stop by and say hi to her and visit some of our pinkies..Saturday is my favorite day of the week mainly due to Pink Saturday!

Ok, now on to Pink is for Friends.  I have a very sweet friend who shall remain nameless, mainly due to the fact that I don’t know that she would want her name plastered all over my blog but just know that this gal has become such a dear friend to me.  One day not too long ago she sent me some fabric to make an apron for her, which I would gladly do!  Along with that was some beautiful Christmas fabric for ME.  She thought I could use it to make an apron to sell as I now have a little design business.  Ok I am not shy..I have a design blog at Designs by DogmomDiva and have already sold a couple of my creations which makes me very happy!  Happy to take orders, gals!  Ok back to my friend..Here is the fabric she sent

Is that beautiful fabric or what?  So elegant!  I love it!  Not only that, she sent me a sweet angel that she handmade and it was just what I needed…An Angel.  My friend is an angel, that is for sure.  PS. I just got the ok to tell you who my angel is..it is the sweet Parsley over at Seasons of my Mind.  We were so lucky a couple months ago to meet Parsley, her sweet daughter and hubs, and her pups when they came to California for vacay..Believe me I feel very, very fortunate to be her friend..Thank you Pars!

Isn’t she beautiful?

here is India checking out the Angel, along with Halo

They approved!  She is now on my mantle in the family room to keep watch over all of us…Thank you to you know who!!!♥♥

Have a wonderful Pink Saturday and week to come…~blessings~
