April 2008 Challenge Entry - Hop Into Spring Rag Quilted Pillows by SherryRenee



I made these two rag quilted pillows out of a bunny print cotton fabric, a yellow flannel and a white vintage chenille. They are comfy pillows to lay on or cute just to sit on your bed or sofa.

Each square is stitched with an "X" to another piece of a lighter yellow flannel. The pillows measure approx. 25 inches around and they are stuffed with "Cluster Fill" polyster fiberfill. They have been washed once to start the raveling process and can be machine washed and dryed. The "Cluster Fill" is not suppose to clump up. Each seam has been triple stitched for extra reinforcement.

April 2008 Challenge Entry - Bunny Burp by ClaireAndJanae



These happy bunnies will hop into spring and hop into your diaper bag so you can clean up after a spit up baby.

These custom Made Burp cloths make a great gift. Cloth diapers make the best burp cloths around but they just aren't that pretty so I pair them with my favorite fabric.

The Taggie keeps your cloth from walking off somewhere like all your babies socks (if you are like me.)

March 2008 Challenge Entry - Keltic Interwoven Dragons T-shirt by HowlingCaterpillars



This is a Spring Green coloured Short Sleeve T-shirt in an Adult Sized XL (46-48). The colours are more vibrant in real life than in the picture.

The design is of Classic Keltic Interwoven Dragons of shades of Green with Pink Hearts on their tail tips.

Each shirt comes with the story behind it's design and care instructions.

Most of the shirts that I print on are Hanes 50/50 Poly Cotton Heavyweight.

I find that these are the easiest to work with. I can also put any of my designs on a plain white tshirt for the same price or a sweatshirt for a little bit more.

I will certainly combine shipping if you buy more than one item and I have more shirts that I will be putting up shortly.
