Split Personality


We had a ton of requests for front zip hoodies this Christmas and not a single one was a steer.  We had a blast chosing fabrics and were so pleased the outcomes!

First Jerri contacted us about a hoodie for her little sis Kacy.  This was our third project with Jerri so were excited about the opportunity to work with her again.  She wanted something that coordinated with Kacy's garment bag...


...so we stuck with the brown and chose a fabric from the Whimsy line.  It turned out FABULOUS!


Kacy thought so too!


Then Kelly ordered hoodies for her littles and one for herself. 
We loved how they turned out and so did they!
Can you blame them? ;)

Ladies, we had a blast working with you and hope you enjoy your goodies...hoodies!

Polka Dots

Definately a FAV!

ZNT Christmas


Traci, from ZNT cattle, contacted us about making their Christmas extra special.  We had already made a hoodie for her daughter Natalie so we knew that whatever we ended up doing would be a blast!


Natalie's teacher is expecting her first baby this spring and she wanted something unique for her gift.  We discussing nursery colors and themes we ended up with this....


We loved the fabric combination but just couldn't shake the feeling that it was missing something.  After walking around it hundreds of times it dawned on us to add the star.  Simply LOVE.

Her next request was a bit more adventurous.  Traci's mom owns Gothberg Farms and she was hoping to find a gift that would allow her to display her artisan cheeses at chef shows and farmers markets.  We came up with a runner that incoporated her logo and could work in either setting. 


We tried a couple of new techniques and were SO happy with the results.

7 Hoodies, 6 Playsets, 5 Burp Cloths, 4 Bibs, 3 Stuffed Cows, 2 Blankets, and A Partridge in a Pear Tree

Our lives are currently in a state of organized chaos (perhaps a little bit less organized than usual) and although we are loving it we also understand our limitations.  With small children, full time careers, and the holidays around the corner we realize that we are running out of time.  So in effort to maintain the small remaining portion of sanity we possess we will be unable to accept any more orders for Christmas.  Any new orders placed will be shipped the first week of January.

 We so hope that you understand our hearts in this.  We were stressed to the max last year, something to be expected we're sure, but this year we really want to be able to enjoy our littles.  We wish each and everyone of you a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!

GIVEAWAY

When the Best of the Barns nominees were named, Crystal (of the famed Crystal Cattle and I am Angus) and I, were so excited about being nominated that we decided a giveaway was in order! 

The winner will receive their choice of a set of custom note cards...

 Or a lovie/binky blanket.  These are great when traveling because the velcro strap keeps everything where it should be.  Instead of on the floorboards (really hard to get to when driving) or underneath the airplane seat (EWWWW!).

So head on over to Crystal.Cattle or Crystal's new FB page and leave us a comment about your favorite Christmas gift EVER.  I am still trying to figure out what mine is....

And while you are at it make sure you check out the  
and VOTE for Purple Banner Designs, Crystal.Cattle, and I am Angus!!
