Introducing..

Sweet Southern Monograms...

Thanks to Natalie over at Team Imhoff for helping me come up with the cute, creative name to call my little embroidery business. (Natalie: Let's chat about what kind of things you would love to have embroidered with your monogram and I will get that too you soon!)

I will be showcasing new items as soon as I can get them completed, photographed and posted.

If you are interested in having me embroider something for you, leave me a comment or send me an email and we get talk about creating one of a kind, unique items.

Now, I hope to convince my husband to make a website/blog to keep separate from the personal one.... JP -- I know you are reading this...

Don't Forget..

Leave me a comment on this post to be entered for a one of a kind gift made by me. Just leave a comment with a creative name for all things embroidered by me.



Comments will be reviewed and decided upon on Saturday, January 30 by 12pm.

Toodles!

Help me be creative

I need YOUR help! I need you to help me come up with a creative name for my embroidery business.

Even though I have yet to share any of my cute creations using my new embroidery machine, I have had a LOT of people ask me to make or monogram things for them. While I love being able to do so, I want to create a name for my business.

I am too busy down in my little sweatshop (otherwise known as my basement) to come up with any cute, creative ideas. So, this is where you come in!

I need you to help me come up with something catchy and cute. Here are a few things you should know about what I do:

• I can embroider-- most of which are monograms.
• I can applique.
• I create a lot of baby things and then embroider or applique.

To sweeten the deal for you, whoever comes up with the most creative name for the shop, will win a great prize. Of course it will be monogrammed for you or a cute little something for your little one. We can discuss what you want after you send me your ideas!

I leave tomorrow for a big girl, real job business trip. So, leave me a comment by Saturday at 12pm noon! That's when I will be checking the comments for the first time. JP and I will read over the list and agree on a name for this fun hobby I have.

Greetings.. from New Orleans...

Good Sunday Morning.

As you read, I am currently looking out the window to a beautiful morning in New Orleans. I have a wonderful view of the city!

I am in New Orleans for work and unlike most work trips, I have some down time to do whatever my little heart desires. I have taken a stroll down Canal Street and plan to head down Royal this afternoon to do a bit of shopping!

Let me tell you .. the FOOD!! It is delish! I am enjoy every meal I have!

I brought my camera, but forgot the damned cord -- so I can't share the view I have of the city. Stay tuned, I will have these photos to share when I return.

Enjoy your weekend !

Why Do They Do This To Me?

Why do the Missouri Tigers let me down? I don't know how much more I can take? Really, a loss to Nebraska and Oklahoma State? I didn't expect a perfect season but a few conference wins would be nice.

Dear Mr. Pinkel -- Where did you learn to coach football? I am starting to question your calls..

Dear Blaine Gabbert -- Can you please not suck so bad?

Dear Football Gods-- Please let things turn around for us Mizzou fans...

My husband and I would LOVE it if you could please play a bit better. Our neighbors don't like it when we yell at our television all night...

Fall TV

A lot of TV shows are now well into full swing. The husband and I are BIG tv fans! Here are a few of our favorites:

{One Tree Hill}

{Modern Family}

{The Good Wife}

{Cougar Town}

{Flash Forward}

{Glee}

{The Middle}

What are your favorite new or returning shows? Let me know what I need to start watching!
