Made you Smile

Here they come our new pillows and we will let you know the retailers that will be carrying them.  You saw the ones in Happy Home and for those of you who don’t sew we decided to make them available and boy are we glad we did. The outpouring of love on facebook is a good indication that we scored. My Girlfriend Jennifer at Earth Angels Studios will be a good place to start May 1st! We are so excited by their debut..we are talking HAPPY!!!!  You can also create these in our book Happy Home with any word/s you like.  Please note do to overstock issues their are plenty of books under new on Amazon with much better pricing..just FYI That’s one of the best sewing books ever. ( I’ve been known to exaggerate.)

SIS BOOM CLIP ART SERIES: GLITTER SCALLOP TREE

LOVING our Fridays!!! What a treat to have our girl, Jessica of LOVE COLORFUL all up in hurr on the Sis Boom blog! Take it away, Jessica! Pssssst… Jessica’s beautiful wedding was just featured in Mingle Magazine— you HAVE to check it out. WOWZA!

Hey there! Ok, I know you’ve seen a bunch of trees up on here, but hey, they are just so darn easy and fun to make I can’t help myself!  Using Sis Boom Clip Art we’ve already made a Sequin Flower Tree and a Striped Heart Tree, but this week we’re going with a Glitter Scallop Tree!

As you probably have guessed by now, we’re using the Glitter Textures Clip Art (yup! the same ones we used for the Happy Home Banner, except this time we’re using the smaller, original sizes!)

Since we’ve been through this quite a few times, I think we can get by with just a few pictures – sound good? Simply print your clip art on 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper (either plain white paper & glue or you can use sticker backed sheets to help the squares stick to each other)

All you’ll really need is a tiny bit of patience!

Florida!!! Are you listening??

Sis Boom Family

Brothers and sisters can now have the Sis Boom vibe .  Check out the Hamling’s on this  beautiful spring day and you can be sure mama Jeanne made the most beautiful clothes.  This just excites me so much to see a bowtie and a shirt all from Sis Boom patterns as well as the Marissa and the Vanessa.  Gorgeous family she’s raising and I get to be the beneficiary of Jeanne’s talents.  So thanks Hamlings for this beautiful portrait on facebook so grateful to see you all!  And on top of  all that beauty the Scientific Seamstress has 30% off all Sis Boom patterns so use code TRYSCI call her nutsy!!!!!! That is a great deal!
