New Modest Swimsuit Find

Yes, I'm still under construction and I apologize. It may stay that way for a while since I'm expecting my 1st baby any day now.

But.... I found a great site (THANKS BRIANNE!) with a modest swim line. I couldn't resist posting about it. I hadn't heard of them before now so I wanted to give them a plug.

• They have great designs
  
• One piece suits and tankinis
  
• Fun Prints!!!
• Prices are a little bit more than some other companies but pretty comparable.

Check out Shades new swim styles and Modbe as well. (See links on left side bar under Modest Lines) Ideally companies should release their swim lines by the 1st of March.

Ammee's Babies

I just came across a site for Hemsistched Baby Gift Kits! I get so excited when I find new websites!

I received an email from a reader recently asking for more hemstitching retailers. This may be a good option for those who don't have access to a company that will hemsistch for them.

This company provides kits that include a hemsistched blanket, burp cloth, thread, a hook and easy to follow instructions.
I think this is a great idea. A One Stop Shop. And after you complete your gift you can wrap and give it in the box the kit came in.
They also have many pattern books, a learning center to teach you how to crochet, wash and care for your projects etc...

They promote "Going Green" and they also Donate a portion of their proceeds to underprivileged babies! and they also have a great FREE PATTERN!

Here is a link to Amees Blog if you are interested in finding out more about her.

Although have not personally purchased from this site but they do have a money back guarantee and they seem like a reliable and reputable company. If you are looking for an option for hemsistched blankets this company may be worth a try!

Yarn Tree

I'm not a really big Cross Stitcher (my sister is much better at it than I am) but I do find it enjoyable. Recently I have been researching different Cross Stitch sites and I came across this one and thought I'd share.
Yarn Tree a company out of Iowa has a great site. With lots of information, products, links and free stuff.

My favorite thing about their site is the Cross Stitch Calculator. It allows you to enter your fabric count, and your stitch count (width by height) and it will give you the dimensions in inches.

It is so awesome because you can figure out fast how big your project is going to end up and how it will change if you decide to change your fabric count. I highly recommend it. If you are into Cross Stitching this site is for you.

Awesome Contest Giveaway!

So I know this has nothing to do with sewing but it is for a good cause.

I just found out about a contest/giveaway that the Little Window Shop is doing.


They are giving away and awesome doll house to one lucky reader. They are also giving a doll house to Primary Children's Hospital. You can be part of it too. Visit the Little Window Shop and read the blog post. They are allowing everyone to sign the card and write well wishes. I think its such a fun gift for these kids. And would be awesome for any little girl to have in her toy collection.


To learn more about the doll house visit this link. To enter the contest visit the Little Window Shop.

If you have never been to LWS before you need to check them out. A friend from my Wymount ward started it. Emily features fun stores, ideas, blogs, anything a girl would love. I have gotten lots of great ideas from this website. So if you haven't visited please do. And Good Luck in the Contest!
