Moonstitch Ribbon - LOVE

My new favorite ribbon - Moonstitch - such a cute bow (obviously a cute little girl)!

Babies, Babies, Everywhere!!!

Something is in the water in West Palm Beach because we have been welcoming lots of precious new babies over the last few months, and there are more to come.

It has been a super fun time for me, as I have jumped back into all things baby after welcoming my latest bundle of joy- Owen. Finding time to be crafty and sew has been tricky, but I am making it happen. Check out the gifts page for some of the latest baby items that I have done and keep checking out the appliques page as I am constantly adding fun designs and alphabets.

Sweet Summer Stuff!

Believe it or not, summer is just around the corner! Those of us in South Florida feel like it is already here with our recent 90 degree weather. Dress your sweet little ones up with the most adorable appliques in bright colors! Check out some of my newest applique additions under the applique tab. Remember - pretty much everything is custom made just for you so you can pick your fabric and colors - the options are limitless!

Spring Is Here!

I can't believe that we are already in March! I have added some new beautiful fabrics and posted some of the recent gifts I have done. I am perfecting my pillowcase dresses and you will see them soon with great Heather Bailey fabrics! I can't wait to show them off. Happy shopping!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas is my absolute favorite time of the year! I just added the most adorable Christmas appliques, so be sure to check them out. Appliques are great on (but not limited to) onsies, t-shirts, rompers, and towels.

Also be sure to make your gifts personal this Christmas and have it monogrammed!

Bows, Bows, Bows!

Check out the adorable bows for babies and toddlers! When Addison was born she had a full head of hair and bows became a necessity very quickly. The only ones that would stay in her hair were the ones made with the open and slide clips. I was having to buy them and they were expensive, so I had to find a way to make them myself. So I am making them available to you at less than what you will find in most boutiques. If you have special requests for certain colors, just ask!

How It All Came To Be!

Having my first child brought with it all kinds of adorable baby stuff - car seats, strollers, bedding, bottles, and so much more. Addison was born with a full head of hair that just kept growing, so bows were not just an accesory, but a necessity. I was spending a fortune on bows at baby boutiques when I was hit with the idea to make them myself. My attempt at being crafty started by making bows for Addison. I had fun doing it and kept trying to come up with fun color combinations, and of course, they got bigger and bigger! After mastering the bows, I started to think that maybe, just maybe, I could be crafty. I tried my hand at making some burpcloths and I loved it. After much research and begging, I convinced those that love me most to pitch in and get me a sewing/monogramming machine for my birthday. I jumped in with both feet, learned everything I could (I'm still learning), and started making gifts for friends. After a short amount of time, people started wanting to buy gifts for themselves and for their friends, and so Gifts Sew Sweet was born!

This blog is a work in progress, and I will be adding stuff all the time, so check back frequently. Soon I will have all of my fabric options as well as pictures of all of the personalized items that I have made so you can get some ideas. Everything is totally personalized, so you pick the item, the fabric, the font, etc... Fun shopping!
