ROYGBIV Lovin'

Have you ever woken up, and just felt like, "I'm going to make something special today?"  

Today I did, so I made TWO (count them TWO) treasuries.  Yes, I'm feeling all right.  And no, I was not abducted by aliens.  I just felt a little... well inspired.  

So here's my second treasury from today, featuring some lovelies from my fellow Homefront Team shop owners, inspired by a rainbow.

Blue and Yellow....

.... make green.

New American Girl on the Horizon

American Girl announced that a new American Girl Doll will be released soon.  Caroline Abbot is from the 1812's, which makes a lot of sense, considering it's the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812 this year.

Argh, AG!  We have another new girl that we want to add to our collection...but now we have to decide if it will be Cecile, Mary Grace, or now Caroline.

Summer Olympics Giveaway

Ok, I know ALL of you have been watching the Olympics.  Every four years, I can't help but get excited to see all the awesome athletes show off their talent and heart to win the gold.  Every four years, I end up watching a new sport, and/or learning about an event that I didn't realize was a part of the Olympics. However, my favorite has been and will always be Gymnastics.  The grace and strength that a gymnast has just amazes me!  

So when I saw that Stacy and Stella posted on their Facebook page that THEY were looking for pattern testers for a leotard, I jumped on it!  Here's Bridget modeling our version of the leotard in red and silver (go Team USA!):

Ouch, can you do that?

She "stuck" her landing!

After submitting my feedback, I decided that this leotard was too cute to just keep to myself.  One lucky Camelot's Treasures' fan will get a chance to win this fantastic leotard, so their doll can join in the Olympic spirit!

All YOU have to do is comment on this blog - that's it!  Comment on the Olympics or whatever, just be sure to leave your email address (or your parent's) so you can be contacted if you are the lucky winner.  If you would like an extra entry, share it on Facebook or Twitter - but be sure to tag us, so we see it! The winner will be announced on Sunday, August 12th, when the closing Olympics Ceremony will be.  Easy peasy :)

Of course, not everyone entered will be able to get this leotard for FREE, however there will be more listed in the shop soon.  Or, if you're a fellow seamstress, then check out Stacy and Stella's Etsy shop for this or several other fabulous patterns!

Back to School, already? SAY WHAT?!

The first day of school is upon us.... in 2 weeks, the kids will be off and I will have several hours of quiet in the house.  What is a mom to do?!

Hello Again!

Wow, it has been a long time since I last posted on this blog.  9 months, YIKES!

I'm sorry.

But I wanted to let you know that I'm getting back into the swing of things.  It's been a wild ride the past 9 months - with moving back from Italy to the USA, buying a house, separating from the military, and just spending time with family it's been a bit crazy.

Our House

Anyway.... I've been working on a few things around here.  A new collection is on the horizon... here's a sneak peek....

Sneak Peek at BTSC

Ok, so I promise to get better and get back on the wagon of posting regularly!  I'll be busy building up my inventory and building my business in my local community also, so please bear with me :)
