Something Very Special... for Someone Very Special

I always say that I welcome special requests.

Some requests are more special than others.

Today I received a request for these two cupcake pillows for a young girl suffering with life-threatening cancer. My customer (a lovely repeat customer) requested they be made with an incredibly soft and comforting fabric as the young girl is now spending most of her time in bed.
So I used the softest super duper fleece I had. (I wish you could reach thru your monitor and smoosh these.)

I was honored to make them. They are on their way now carrying all the love they can possibly hold ~ for sweet Delaney.

Wee Travelers are Here!

The next idea...

VoilĂ ! Introducing "Wee Travelers" ~ little travel bags for kids! Something I've been thinking about for awhile and finally had time to work up a prototype. Mind you, these aren't the best images; I found it difficult to find the proper lighting for this particular item, but you get the idea.

"Wee Travelers" will be offered in a couple of sizes ~ this particular cupcake version is larger ~ about 12 inches high and 28 inches in diameter. It sports a cupcake appliqued pocket on the front and another pocket on the inside in the pink and white striped lining. Both fabrics on this model are flannel - super soft and completely washable ~ and the bag has a Velcro closure (easy for little hands to manipulate). A coordinating ribbon on the 18 inch handles and a cute pink heart button on the outer pocket complete the bag.

Of course there will be "manly" bags for boys as well; and I will be making a smaller version, too. The bags are perfect for overnights at Grandmas; play dates with friends; traveling on an airplane (they'll make it thru security just fine!); going to the beach, the lake, the mountains; going to the market with Mom or on a camping trip with Dad.

OR ~ the bags will be perfect for carrying a Wee One (or two!) along on all those adventures!!

More to come. This cupcake bag may or may not show up in my Etsy shop ~ I haven't decided yet. It may be going to a special little girl... Stay tuned for all kinds of bags and especially the "Wee Travelers" for guys coming soon, too!
