Ready for Fall?!

This weekend, I faced my denial and embraced the new fall weather. Is it me, or did the leaves change over night?! The view outside of my office is just bursting with bright orange and red!


Are you ready for fall? Why not give your fall wardrobe a handmade make-over with a new tote!


You can purchase this one now on Etsy!

Now Available to Purchase On Etsy

For those of you who have asked if my items are available for purchase online, the answer is now YES! I've recently set up my Etsy Shop online! You can reach it at www.loveelaine.etsy.com or you can click on the items on the right of this site under "Buy Online"! I'll be adding more items over the next week - so check back often!

Also, I want to mention that all items you see in photos, posts or on Etsy can be custom ordered at no additional charge! Isn't that the point of having a handmade item? So it can be completely unique and exactly what you want?! Send me an email and we'll chat!

Jewelry: Its In The Bag!

Although it doesn't look like much, this little bundle of fabric and ribbon packs a big punch when traveling with your jewelry! I've given plenty of these as gifts with friends for various holidays and occasions with a pair of earrings or a necklace to rave reviews! Each one can also sit on your dresser or night stand at home to hold all of your "every day" jewelry that often gets left lying around after the day's wear.

They are $15/ea. and I can do them in any color combination (to match a bedroom or a bag) and in multiples (think bridesmaids!). I will have more photos of these soon, as I have a few orders to do! Email me if you are interested and we can talk fabric - which of course if my favorite thing to talk these days!

JLR Touch a Truck Tomorrow!

I'll be at the Junior League of Richmond Touch a Truck event tomorrow from 10 am - 2 pm tomorrow! Rain or shine - good thing I now have a tent! Hope to see you there!

Its Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas!

Well, at least in my sewing room it is! I've been so busy sewing for a few shows lately, that I haven't had a chance to debut the Christmas Tree Skirts that are now finished and *hopefully* on their way to a new home very soon :)

The skirts in the picture are available for sale now and they are 42" dia. (email me for pricing) and come in, from right to left: Michael Miller Funky Christmas, Moda Figgy Pudding Red, Moda Figgy Pudding Blue, or City Girl Holiday. And, since no tree skirt is complete without matching stockings, I can also include 2 for the price of one with the purchase of a tree skirt!

These can be made to match any holiday color scheme! The fabrics and choices are endless for the holidays, so drop me a line if you want to discuss alternative colors and fabrics :)

Glen Allen Days On Saturday!

We'll be making our Richmond debut at Glen Allen Days on Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM! I hope the weather holds :) Lots of last minute sewing and preparations to do tonight! Thanks to everyone for all of your support and encouragement these last few weeks - I'll give a full report next week once the dust settles!
