Bobbin and Weavin

October was almost more fun than this Sugar Britches could handle! I got so caught up in cranking out orders that I almost forgot to update the blog. Almost.

I got all sassy frass and went formal and "hired" a *super cute* marketing man (shout out to Chris D!) who whipped up some business cards, so I decided I better at least catch up an incy wincy bit here.

Sugar Britches is now featuring: scarves, hoodies, jackets, running shorts, burp cloths, bloomers, bibs, onesies, and monogrammed socks and undies to boot. JK.

But truly, so many special things for so many special folks!

I'm still just as tickled as ever to get to know the stories behind each piece I create.

November rolled in and a Fleece Frenzy took SB by storm. I'm sayin. Peeps love them some fleece hoodies, scarves, and jackets!

I was honored to do some Buford Spirit Wear for a very special little lady this month as well--her Mama said she was tickled pink to wear her girly girl shirts to school and I was just as tickled to see her sweet face in them!

And I still can't get over this little hot pink tutu--such a fun pairing with any monogrammed onesie--

We're also carrying the cutest little ruffle bottomed leggings for baby girls this month. So fun, so frilly!

And today I cooked up this little beauty:

Never mind those spankin' spoons. They're just for decorations.

Put some prep in your step and order those Christmas gifts early, y'all!

I cannot say enough how much this little "hobby" has helped to soothe my soul. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your orders.

Humbly yours,

Sugar Britches



Snuggle Britches

I'm a big baby when it comes to cold weather. It's 50 something degrees down here in Georgia, which means I schlepped out all of my hoodies and scarves and sleep in layers thick enough to roast a marshmallow.

That being said, Sugar Britches has got a super scarf sale going this week! Monogrammed FLEECE scarves, $15. 

What a fun Fall sale this has already proven to be! I'm totally loving all of your color combos and requests--thank you, thank you, thank you!

Pick your favorite color, monogram style, and thread color and feel free to email your order requests to ali.davis@hotmail.com 

 

Now bundle up and go grab your favorite Starbucks treat, Snuggle Britches!

Zoe Baby

My Honey Boo Boo season is over. (Shh. It's a wig!)

That means I've got even more time to devote to making Sugar Britches for all these little britches!

Lots of stitchin. Lots of prayin.

It's been a bloomer-palooza kind of week. I love them all but I'm thinking the "Zoe" ones are one of my all time faves. Can't you just see her sweet little tush in those? She is a miracle baby--a gift to a very very special family who has walked with grace in the midst of loss. Sewing for her was a mighty special treat! 

Tutu Cute!

Have y'all seen this precious pic floating around on the Pintasphere?

Oh I could just eat them up! I think it is just about the cutest thing on the planet, so I can't even tell you how tickled I was to take on a similar project for Baby Julia.

It's all things girly and all things football, wrapped up into one-Just as Southern as the sweet tea I'm sippin.

I may not be a Notre Dame fan, but I'm a Tutu fan, so I rolled up my sleeves and got to work on the little skirt and onesie combo and think it turned out pretty stinking cute.

The football onesie alone is the perfect gameday accessory for the littlest of Dawg football fans.

And I sure can't wait to see this sweet pea all dressed up with her big brother Lucas!

Monthaversary Onesies

This little fella wanted to let you know that we're now taking orders for Monthaversary Onesies!

The perfect way to capture your little pumpkin as they grow each month.

$5/per onesie or $1.50/per transfer

Introducing the Original Sugar "Britches"

These little bloomers have been on my to-do list and I am oh so glad I sat my fannie down to start making them!

Sugar Britches: $10 (available in large single letter or 3 letter interlocking monogram)

Girly burps!

Whale of a Good Time

I am a sucker for cute whale things. Coop's first bday party was all about having a whale of a good time.

And I whaley love this sweet pink preppy little whale.

I'm sitting at my machine now mastering ruffle-legged onesies. Ignore those stitches--work in progress! They're gonna mean trouble. Way too cute!

While I was feeling preppy, I might have stitched Coop's initials into his new little red raincoat using the "seal" monogram.

This is the first thing I've done of his. I might be tempted to do some little oxford shirts in the near future though, I won't lie.

And I almost forgot! Remember this cutie patootie miracle baby?

Parker Edward? He is a CHAMP and is doing oh so well. Home sweet home from the NICU. Look at how precious he and Big Brother JB are. (Go DAWGS!)

His mama has something up her sleeve for a picture shoot coming up that involved these tasty treats.

I jumped at the opportunity to pour out praises and prayers for this sweet baby (x4).

I just about can't wait to see the finished product.

Back to my ruffle legs. Lovin' all these orders but mostly lovin' loving on all you sweet folks!

Stitching Stories

I ran over my phone on Tuesday. With my car. Turns out monogrammed cases don't withstand mid-sized SUVs.

I was so busy whipping up sweet baby things that I didn't even stop to care.

So excited to celebrate two precious new babies!

Matilda Grace is 3 weeks old and just about the cutest thing in the whole wide world.

She's a tiny little thing. Curled right up on my shoulder and made the sweetest little noises.

Mostly I just dreamed of monogramming her tiny little bloomers and ruffled bottomed onesies.

And Baby Brady will be here any day now! He is gonna be the rootin'-its-tootin-its cowboy in all the land. His mama, Danielle, is just the cutest thing!

My favorite part? I just sit and pray for these sweet little babies the entire time I whip up their gifts. I have already gotten such joy hearing stories of these little ones and what they "need" and why they "need" it. With each order, there's a story, and I just love that.

Somehow my scrubs got monogrammed. 

Strangest thing.  

Baby Love

I've been in a pink/navy/paisley/ruffly mood today-I just can't get enough of this print!

 Must have been my trip down to Buggy Days where I saw one too many camo embroidered onesies.

For reals. Camo meets monogram. Thankfully they had fried pickles and more people watchin' than we could hardly stand, so I was able to recover quickly.

Baby love, y'all.

Now off to master pillow cases and towels for the Mr. and the Mrs.

Whoa Nelly-Fonts, Fonts, Fonts!

I am officially hooked. I warned Chris: If it's not the undies on your fannie, it's fair game.

What's even better is that when I was in Old Navy this morning with a cart full of hoodies, onesies, and tees for Monogram Mania Weekend, this old Bitty standing in front of me in line (wearing-I-kid-you-not) white denim shorts and a kitty cat sweatshirt, gawked at my cuffed jeans and said "Not to offend you BUT I sew and I could fix those pants for you so they don't look so silly".

Um.

"I sew too", I said "and these 'silly' cuffed britches happen to be in style thank-you-very-much".

Psh. I totally wanted to offer to monogram her kitty sweatshirt.

Instead, I sashayed home and got crackin' on some fonts. Love, love, love!

I'm a total sucker for the traditional 3 letter vine monogram. It's making it's debut in my closet as we speak. Gotta "practice", right? 

I also made a hoodie (it's a gift, shhh!). I know. Picture looks bleh but it is just darlin in person!

I think it looks mighty sassy on a burp cloth too.

And one of my very faves:

Sew tell me, what's your favorite?
