I was browsing through Etsy this morning and came across this super cute red cape. What a wonderful gift this would be for a little girl who likes to pretend she's in a fairytale. The owner of the shop, Charlene, will even make a Big Bad Wolf hat to go with it! How fun is that! You can find this hooded cape at <span class="shopname wrap "><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/crochetedbycharlene?ref=seller_info"><span style="color: #0192b5;">crochetedbycharlene </span></a>. This is a great Etsy shop that specializes in crocheting. Charlene has over 200 crocheted items in her shop! I am eyeing up a nice plastic bag holder myself, since the pastic bags have taken over the floor of my pantry. So join me over at <span class="shopname wrap "><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/crochetedbycharlene?ref=seller_info"><span style="color: #0192b5;">crochetedbycharlene </span></a>and check out all the great handmade items. Maybe even cross another name off that shopping list.</span></span>Embroidery Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15281253363860434298noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863234430826649670.post-69599020215699144452011-11-02T08:38:00.001-04:002011-11-02T08:40:00.323-04:00Well, it is November and the holidays are sneaking up at us. This is the time of year I really start to get into the spirit. I start watching Christmas movies and thinking about how I will be decorating the house. I start planning the Thanksgiving meal. I so enjoy hosting Thanksgiving. The day just isn't the same without a big turkey and lots of family and football. Thanksgiving has always been special to me. I remember when I was a child that was the holiday we always spent with my Dad's family in the U.P. of Michigan. <br />
This is also the time of year I get serious about making gifts for family and friends. I love giving handmade items as gifts. To me they seem a little more special. If you don't have the time or talents to make those handmade items, but still love them a great place to find them is on Etsy. I recently found a lovely Etsy shop that has some great gift items. The shop is magdamagdaFashion. This is my favorite scarf. I love the colors. You can even pick from different colors. This scarf is only $9.90 and very low shipping of $2.90. This would make a great exchange gift for those family and work parties! I know I would be thrilled to receive this beautiful scarf. So, head on over and check out <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/81424828/chiffon-scarf-and-wrinkled-rose-set">magdamagdaFashion</a> and check a few items off your holiday to do list.<br />

Well, Christmas is less than 2 months away now, hard to believe. As much as I don't like cold weather, I love the holiday season. I have been working on ideas for Christmas shirts. I am trying to create shirts that combine tie dye with embroidery. This is an example of one of the ideas I had. The shirt is tie dyed and the Santa hat is then embroidered on. I really like how this shirt turned out. I think I will be making one for myself!Embroidery Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15281253363860434298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863234430826649670.post-4373134299589978442011-10-24T13:01:00.000-04:002011-10-24T13:01:14.158-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN8HjRDtss8MrVyMr1iI6Boi9Eeq2nmlroMigjEHNbkbyS-5uLFTeZJPgHFNImJ0ZDJ_fBf5OWhzdVRTCx7qmylhDz8Egv_Xu6kFcc5R-g_iMx0mHzHbbEkzv5LcYr_VKgw_ak4xJXC8A/s1600/100_1300.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" rda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN8HjRDtss8MrVyMr1iI6Boi9Eeq2nmlroMigjEHNbkbyS-5uLFTeZJPgHFNImJ0ZDJ_fBf5OWhzdVRTCx7qmylhDz8Egv_Xu6kFcc5R-g_iMx0mHzHbbEkzv5LcYr_VKgw_ak4xJXC8A/s320/100_1300.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>The boy's and I spent the day Saturday at Montrose Orchards for the Swartz Creek Chamber of Commerce Family Fun Day. It was a great day! The sun was shinning and the temperature was just right. There were games, music, crafts, hayrides, and food. My youngest, who likes to talk to strangers, put a Halloween shirt on and ran around asking people if they wanted to buy our shirts.Embroidery Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15281253363860434298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863234430826649670.post-52435768935548165172011-10-24T09:30:00.000-04:002011-10-24T09:30:47.174-04:00Taking the leap!Hello and welcome to my blog! I have decided to take the leap into blogging to help and promote my Etsy shop, Embroidery Queen. This will be a learning experience for me and I am not really sure what this blog will look like a year from now. However, my current plan is to focus on the products that I am currently making and selling in my Etsy shop. I am also going to share with you other Etsy shops and the great products they have to offer. So, let the adventure begin!Embroidery Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15281253363860434298noreply@blogger.com0
