Wiggin's Cabin and Such :)

Hello everyone! Hope you like the new look around the blog. I love purple :) But it may be a little too dark? May go for a soft pink and blue later. So I may change it again soon haha :) Anyway, I'm quite proud of myself! I made my first Pocket Pixie using Ginger Melon's pattern :) I purchased several patterns from her a while back and I just recently got the chance to try one out. And she turned out so cute!! I will definitely make more, but I won't be selling them in my Etsy because I feel it would be wrong to sell someone else's ideas who has a shop on etsy, even though I sewed it myself from her pattern. I probably will be making some to sell locally though at craft shows, plus other things I make :) Below is a pic of her :) Ginger Melon's etsy is http://gingermelon.etsy.com if ya'll wanna go visit her shop :)

Speaking of craft shows, in October my hometown will be having an annual "Craft and Vendor" thing called "Wiggin's Cabin," and I'm really looking forward to it! I'm hoping I can sell my homemade crafts there :) And it will be my first time selling my crafts like that! So I am excited. Got to get to work though, lots to do! I will keep ya'll updated. For now, I've gotta get some more stuff up in my shop :) I will update ya'll again when I do :) Ttyl!! Have a good day! ~Leisha~

There and Back Again :)

Good Morning everyone! Just wanted to do an update. It's been busy lately, it seems haha. Anyway, I am going to update the look of the blog today and I also wanted to post what is new at my Etsy shop and some other things that I have been working on at home. Introducing, the LeeLee Dolls! They are tiny, cute and organic dolls that are fun to make and bring a smile to everyone's face :) (Hopefully, anyway haha). I have made a couple so far. One has sold already (the Native American one), but the blossom fairy is still for sale!! :) I am planning on doing many more! Hope you like them as much as I do! Here are some photos!

So, I have been recently learning some new things. I made a tote bag out of two different fat quarters of fabric last night!! I was so proud of myself! haha! So, I plan on making some more of those and practicing some embroidery on them. Here are a couple of pictures of it. Purple zebra with a peekaboo cheetah on the inside!! I love it!! :) Perfect for a lunch tote, an artist tote, a book tote, or a craft/knitting tote! Whatever you want it to be! :)

And two new faces have appeared at the shop as well :) A Tiny Safari Elephant and a Skunk named Precious :) Here are some photos.

Been working on some tiny kittens! Will post pictures soon and hopefully I will be selling them in the shop as well. Also, going to add more tiny safari animals so Tiny Elephant can have some friends! :) Hope everyone had a good Easter!! ~Leisha~

New Happenings :)

Hello to everyone and a belated Happy New Year and Valentine's Day! Haha. It's been a while, and I have kind of been on a slight hiatus, but now I'm back :) I just wanted to post some pics of what's new at You Are Made With Love, my Etsy shop :)

This past week, my husband hurt his knee and has been home from work since Wednesday. So, over the weekend, there was a lot of nice free time on my hands spent watching movies with my husband and sitting out on the front porch drinking tea and feeling the nice spring breeze :) Since we really couldn't go anywhere or do anything other than stay at the house and let him recuperate, I realized how NICE it was to relax!! I had forgotten how to do that over the past couple of years. Usually my days are spent going and doing with other people and for other people, so it was especially nice to just breathe :)

And with that came many tiny animal making!! :) So, I am pleased to announce the newest members to my shop. Hope you like! Love you all :)
