Personalized Shirts

warning: if you know me and your child is having a birthday and they are peeking over your shoulder, avert their eyes now!
You can probably tell by now, but I love my embroidery machine - I bought it used on Ebay, so the cost wasn't as outrageous as you'd imagine.  I especially love how I can quickly make a cute, personalized gift and not spend too much money.  I am always on the lookout for shirts on clearance - and you should be too!  Even if you don't go with embroidery, you can use iron-on transfers or freeze paper stenciling and voila, perfect gifts every time.  This week I've made 3 shirts - popular birthday week, I guess.

  1. I have a question ~ I was wanting to get a machine to make items for my daughter but I have no idea where to even start. What kind of machine do you have? Any suggestions on brands/specs? Thanks

  4. Allyson LOVES her Star shirt! Loves it, loves it, loves it! Thanks so much. I think instead of getting my own machine, I'll just support your ever growing buisness?
