 Personalized beanies have become very popular recently,  I love to make them.  Seeing the babies wearing them gives me great joy.  Each cap can fit the personality of the baby and their family.

Dinosaurs

My favorite items to embroider are ones for my grandchildren.  I know the photo is a little grainy.  It was taken in low light with a cell phone. But I like it because it is my little grandson wearing an onesie with a triceratops applique'.  The design comes from Designs by JuJu Dino Crossing Applique' set.  http://www.designsbyjuju.com/designsets.aspx?pscat=63  

His older sister likes him wearing this top because Triceratops are her favorite dinosaurs! 

Burp Cloths

I began hand painting burp cloths 30 years ago when my son was an infant. Over the years my designs got more detailed. Every time I gave them as gifts they were well received. I have some mothers who have told me that they still have their babies burp cloths from years ago.

Recently, my husband gave me a Bernina Artista 630 and I have discovered the world of Machine Embroidery. (ME) I love it. I love all of the colors of threads and all of the many designs from which to choose. I also love the software that enables me to customize my burp cloths.

The moon and stars burp cloth , above, has some yellow glow-in-the-dark thread. Once the lights go off, it glows!

Below, you can see a sample of other burp cloths I've made. All are embroidered on Gerber pre-fold diapers for excellent absorption.  I also use high quality Isocord thread which will not bleed or fade.  These burp cloths can be tossed into the washing machine without any worries.
