Collaboration with M2M Boutique
Another wonderful Made to Match joint project this time with M2MBoutiqueGina asked me to make a Hair Quilt™ to match some watermelon fabric well here is the end result! Gina was awesome to work with and according to her profile at etsy, she has been in the fashion industry for over 15 years, and started her role in the fashion world on the catwalk, and now she continues this trend as a designer.
M2MBoutique specializes in custom clothing, matching clothing, tutu's, and custom design.
It was such a thrill to work on this project with her!
A huge thank you to Gina for asking me to collaborate with her on her wonderful design. Don't you want your little girl to be a one of a kind slice of melon? Oh summer is right around the corner!!!Visit M2MBoutique often for all her wonderful work !

Baby Shower the Happy House Quilts way!
How adorable is this little bunny?
And I am so proud of this original design the Hydrangea Blossom Hair Quilt™ Appliqué .
Here is what they look like on the back...as always hand stitched! I do use glue on occasion or if it's hand stitched but too costly ask me to glue it...for a less expensive option.

Pretty Priddy Creations Shares the Collaborative Spirit with Happy Hosue Quilts
What can I say about the collaborative spirit of artisans? Etsy has been such a wonderful bridge
to meet fellow kindred spirits. Meet Amy Priddy, of Priddy Creations Custom Designs; A mom and wife who loves anything crafty.
Her creativity is outstanding and I was so honored that she asked me to collaborate with her on a new purse she handcrafted for her etsy site.
She shared the fabric and asked me to make a brooch to match it. I love challenges like this. Fun stuff playing with colors and shapes.
Her end result is stunning...don't you think?
The general public thinks so too, it sold out with request for several more in about 24 hours!
Here's a close up of the brooch I made...but as always my creative spirit thinks that it would look good with a aqua base too.
A huge thank you to Amy for sharing her success with me. Moms supporting moms is such a wonderful experience. I recommend everyone giving it a try, because being a mom is such a stressful job that we tend to minimize. We carry the load of details in our heads for not only ourselves but everyone in the family. When we get sick we barely have time to take care of ourselves.
So I challenge all the moms out there...reach out and make someone's day, offer to help, collaborate on a creative project or give a compliment to another mom...It could really make her day!

The Anne of Green Gables Birthday Party!
Can I just say...Good friends are priceless? My friend Karen worked...no slaved over this cake for over 7 hours yesterday...I helped frost it...but the construction of it is awesome! She used skewers!!! 3 cakes! She is a true mommy friend! I was thinking sheet cake with a drawing in store bought gel goop...but no, she said..."let's go vertical!" and here is the end result.
Did you know that this is the 100th aniversary of Lucy Maud Montgomery's novel ?
I thought adding the porch was pushing things...but it's awesome! She frosted pretzel rods and graham crackers!
Yummy!
The kids had a blast playing musical chairs, duck, duck goose, Little Sally Horner and making wool felt bookmarks...of course we got crafty!
The kids thought the cake was delish!
Here is their craftiness!
Threadibilities Craft kits for birthday parties are a great craft! Some kids sewed and others used glue...they all came out awesome! We opted for a huge 3 inch bookmark as Anne (with an "E") was a teacher and writer. The design was a butterfly on a circle and each and every one came out so different, it was a super self-esteem booster for sure.
Here is the silly, "sugar rush" photo!
All the kids got gloves...found them at Target! Thanks for the heads up Bridget!
Sara had to fix her hair! The butterfly hair bow is now long gone...she had a long day...but was a trooper through it all!
Wrapitup at etsy supplied the Chocolates.
It is a cute teddy bear tea with "Kindred Spirits" written on the wrapper as well as Em's birthday date and a thank you note...wow, good things really do come in small packages!
Ellie is modeling a great Spring Rainbow M2M headband from Lillyspunkinpatch and Emily is wearing the Cupcake Cutie version...so cute!

Eight years ago...
Eight years ago, I became a mother. In some ways these years seem so long, as I feel so old, but in so many other ways it was a simple blink.
I made cupcakes for her second grade class...and can I just say that I sew them better than I frost them?! LOL! Love my cupcake taker by Tupperware!!!
That paper cupcake is from PumpkinSeedMama...needed to share the cuteness of it and offset the ugly cupcakes.
I am more tired than I have ever been in my entire life...but watching my 3 girls grow has been so fulfilling as a woman. I am so proud to be their mom and I hope to stop and smell their hair more, like right after they get out of the shower...not the roses but their loveys, Rabbi, dolly and blankie...take in the little giggles and private jokes more. Give more hugs and raise my voice less, slow down and listen with my 2 ears and talk less with my one mouth. I hope that these next few years slow down...so that I can watch my children grow and become women that I truly want to be friend's with.
This picture was taken this past weekend..not sure what the style statement is with the hat brim folded up too much....but they thought they were cool. We have had over 102 inches of snow fall this winter...yikes!
Good times!
