Archives for September 2009

I have been anxiously waiting for someone to place the first fall order and I was super excited when Ellen asked me to do fall shirts for her two girls.  We decided on candy corn and an acorn.  She also needed a baby set with an “a” onesie and cute birdie burp cloth to match.  Thanks Ellen as always for your order.

And this baby set was for Ellen’s new bab girl Audrey.  I love this apple fabric and always am looking for opportunitys to use it.

This next order was placed by my friend Courtney.  She has a million friends having babies right now and one of the new mom and dads are big University of Kentucky fans, so Courtney wanted a girlie UK shirt.  Thanks Courtney!

This order was placed by Ashley in Kentucky.  She needed a tee for her little nephew Nicholas who is about to turn 2.  She really left the tee up to me, but had mentioned liking the letter shirts, so I went with that.  A big letter “N” and a little #2.  I hope Nicholas will love it.  Thanks Ashley so much.

And lastly this order was placed by Lindsey and  is headed to Missouri.  Lindsay and her family are about to be headed to Ethiopia for their court date and she wanted two long sleeve tees for her daughters to wear.  She wanted the calendar tee, but with a heart around their court date.  I hope she loves them and I hope everything goes perfect in Ethiopia.  Congrats Lindsey and thanks again.

There are only 0 order spots left.  I will let you know when I am taking new orders again.  Also here are 2 Names of Jesus pieces I finished up this week.  This first one was ordered by Jaynie in Murfreesboro.  It is the 24×48 size and 45 different names.  Thanks for your order Jaynie.

This next one was ordered by Shannon in Oklahoma.  This is a 24×36 size and 30 different names.  Thanks so much Shannon!

And this picture is just because it is my new favorite.  Harper and my sweet, sweet niece McKinley.  Boy do these girls adore each other.  Love it!

I am now taking new orders.  I will take 10 new orders, so email me if you would like to place an order.  Once I have 10 orders placed, I will not take any new orders until those 10 are done and shipped.  This is just to keep me from getting burried in work.  If you would like to place an order just shoot me an email at www.pitterpatterart.com.

Okay so now onto some recent orders.  This first order was placed by Kelly.  They have a house divided by an Auburn fan (herself) and a Tennesse fan (her husband).  She wanted a special shirt for their son Luke to sport at the up and coming Tennessee VS Auburn football game.  I was more than happy to help.  Thanks Kelly!

This next shirt was ordered by Meredith for a friend of hers in North Carolina, who is adopting from South Korea.  She wanted the shape of S.Korea and I added the flag.  This is one unique shirt and know the adoptive mom will love it and find it a very special gift from her friend.  Thanks Meredith!

This last order was ordered by Molly in Ohio.  She is adopting a sweet baby girl from Ethiopia and wanted a shirt with the shape of Ethiopia on it.  She also wanted a cloth block for her baby girl to match her room done in orange and purple.  I think she was pleased.  Thanks again Molly!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Well Labor Day held true to its name for me today and I got a ton done.  Josh took the kids this morning so that I could have about 2 hours to myself to work (thank you Joshua!) and of course my sewing machine broke.  So I then spent about 30 minutes “fixing” it…I just know that inevitably I am going to have to buy a new machine soon…trying to hold out until the bitter end.  Anyways, then I worked all during nap time and continued to work right after everyone went to bed.  I have had a ton of orders and I am still not taking new ones because I have just got to get all the orders already placed done and shipped out.  Also I desperately need to finish Sol’s adoption announcements and make Huddy’s birthday invitations.  So once that is done, new orders here I come.  So for now I will share all the shirts that I did today.  Africa shirts are still flying out the door.  These are headed to Brentwood, North Carolina and Canada.  Thank you so much Connie, Gina and Tracey for your orders.

These three tees are headed to Kristy in Wisconsin.  She needed shirts for her nephew and for her daughter.  I know they will be adorable in their Pitter Patter shirts and thanks so much Kristy.

These letter sets were ordered by Alison and I just finished them the other day and I think they are just adorable.  Thanks Alison and hope Hank and Lanie love them.

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day!  Tuesday here we come!

My little niece Meiya made it to China and is adjusting quite well…we miss her terribly and her mom and dad.  Here is a picture I snagged of her and Sol before she left for China.  She is just the sweetest little thing.

Onto more orders…This set was ordered by Stacy in California for her future nephew.  She needed a Africa shirt and 2 burp cloths for her little nephew.  Oh aunts that love their nieces and nephews are the best.  Thanks so much Stacy and hope you get to meet your new nephew soon.

Sarah in Brentwood ordered these sweet little tags for her little guy.  I really need some of these for my boys…thanks Sarah so much and it was a pleasure.

Stephanie ordered this letter set for her 2 boys who love all things animals…so I went with lots of animal prints and threw in some dogs.  Hope your boys love them Stephanie and thanks again.

To start off just wanted to post a picture of my boys.  They are too funny together and really starting to be aware of each other and “play”.  They were reading books together the other day while I fixed dinner and I just thought they were too cute.  So enjoy and by the way Sol is doing FANTASTIC.  We really could not have asked for a smoother transition.  Praise God!

Onto business as usual.  Africa shirts are booming and here are three orders that were shipped today.

Dana in Franklin ordered this shirt and will be going soon to pick up her daughter.  Congrats Dana and thanks for your business.

This next order is headed to Christina in Florida.  She ordered shirts for herself and her two daughters.  She also needed a bib for her new baby girl she will be meeting soon.  Congrats and thanks Christina.

This order is headed to Jennifer in Massachusetts.  She ordered several adult shirts and one for her new daughter from Ethiopia that she will be meeting soon also.  Can I just say that I LOVE orders like these.  I love hearing other people’s adoption stories and these orders are just always double sweet.  Congrats Jennifer and thanks again.

This next order was placed by my friend Jess who’s little cousin Sophie just turned one.  Jess wanted a cute little shirt just for Sophie.  Thanks Jess, as always.

And lastly this 12×48 painting was ordered by Mrs Trish for her new little granddaughter who is on her way.  The dad and mom-to-be wanted something extra special and new exactly what they were looking for.  There little one’s bedding is all polka dots, so this is going to match perfect.  Thanks so much Mrs Trish for your order.
