She's Baaaaaaaaaack!

I'm back, and ready to get back into the swing of blogging.

I am currently re-stocking my etsy shop, it feels good to be creative again.

I'm happy to report that during my hiatus we managed to succeed at the infertility clinic and are currently expecting our second child, a little girl, in April. Sam is very excited to be a big brother.

On top of being a big brother, he's been a wonderful model as of late (which can be evidenced on my etsy site. . I'm also working on a new line for my etsy store, baby blankets. Eventually I'd like to make baby booties and scarves, but right now blankets are where it's at.

This is one I am working on currently:





I love all the colors and the texture is really fuzzy and soft. I imagine a little girl curled up with this while playing with her dolls or sleeping sweetly in her bed. Funny how creating something from raw materials can make you think of a particular scene in which the end product might be used.

Other things recently added to etsy are some of my Christmas line... here Santa is just waiting to come home to your little one!



I'm also looking to feature new artists on my blog, if you're interested- please leave a note with a link to your etsy shop. Thanks!

Little Pods has come to blogspot.

This is my blog for my Etsy Site http://littlepods.etsy.com/ here you can find links to my favorite etsyians, thoughts on advertisting, as well as tips and secrets I've found out, pictures of my work and the ramblings of a Mom trying to make it in the clothing industry.

Right now I am working on some Applique Onesies, with rhinestone embellishments. These are fun things to make, simply because I love shopping for new ideas. Appliques are easy to adhere to fabric and simply adorable. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors and themes and are great for both infants and toddlers of either sex.

I am also working on a handpainted onesie I call "Looking In" which has a handpainted goldfish bowl housing two goldfish who like to get into all sorts of trouble. Look for that soon at my etsy site, http://littlepods.etsy.com/
