handprinted tees and dresses!

wow! i tried to use extra bright colors this time! i think they are really showing through, too. when i was stamping i thought the colors were too intense, but after the heat treatment, washing, and drying processes, they look perfect! i'm so glad i went with my gut instinct! i think these are so refreshing after i have discovered there are only fall colors at the mall. boo for brown, orange, and burgandy. yay for summer colors!turtle dresses all lined up!
this was a new try with my favorite, the color spectrum across the bottom. instead of background stamping it, though, i sewed the appliques across. i really like the look--it's different but familiar. i kept one of these for ellie!
here is this batch of shirts, all ready to head to virginia beach!
cute sharks and hooks. i kept one for ezra!
the turtles came out great again. i just love making this design. the mommies of little boys also seem happy about this one!

anyway, my mom will be at the virginia beach art show this weekend! it's our first time there and she has lots of cool things. check out her blog at hickity-pickity.blogspot.com.
