the tutu you commented on is made by mama made. she's tagged inthe picture. I haven't had the time to do your stuff. I have the blocks cut out but i don't have fabric for the toys
lol.. Apparently the feather parts were really good..lol.. I am glad she LOVES my bows.. Ok, I will start on them on Monday. How does $8 shipped sound for all of them? Let me know if thats ok, and if I may invoice you.
Sorry for the confusion..lol.. Staying up with my layout designer, she is working on my main website & I am super excited to see what it will look like.. Then next she will make me a whole NEW myspace layout..
Ok, You want the bow to look like the bow pictured? I can make a bow tie bow if you want. Sorry I am getting confused. Let me know what "style" of bow you would like? You want them pastel colors, smaller then the last ones i sent you and you will be needing 4 or 5. No embellishments or clippies. I am just making sure I get what you would like
What colors did you have in mind? How many did you need of the bows? Did you want them the style of the one you commented that had to different shades of blue?
Thanks so much girly for all the nice comments! Hope you are having a great weekend! Just let me know if you want that hat done and that blanket! You know I will give you a great deal!!
MAY SPRING RAIN DOWN SHOWERS OF RICH BLESSINGS UPON YOU AND YOURS.
Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee. 9. Deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me. 10. Teach me to do thy will; for thou [art] my God: thy spirit [is] good; lead me into the land of uprightness. Psalm 143:8-10
