Saturday LBB Gallery Share (A day late....)

Where have the last few weeks gone? I've been buried in my new studio sewing and silk screening like crazy. Just a few photos to sum up some recent projects:

Lots of seahorses....and beautiful photography by my friend Lisa from Ellebows:





A few blue marlins.....

Homemade silk screened plaid:


A doll sized LBB princess dress (inspired by Boo's birthday dress)...



....to match custom princess dresses:



I finished all the "Fuschia Filly" horse dresses I was working on as a limited edition offering in my Lil Blue Boo Big Cartel shop.


Each one came with a matching doll dress.



Finally got caught up on shipping:




A few days later I got some amazing photos back as kiddos received their packages....so many great photos. Check my Lil Blue Boo Facebook page for the rest.

I finished up a large batch of limited edition Father's Day dresses which featured a silk screened tie and pocket protector image:


I made them in blue.....


....and pink. Making more this week since they all sold out.


A few customer appreciation photos:

Lil Blue Boo doll dresses used for nursery decor! I think I'm going to have to borrow this idea for a studio shoot coming up!

Non-LBB-centric photo alert: We got this amazing dress in the mail from one of my favorite upcyclers Dress Me. Liesbeth does amazing work. We are expecting another dress any day now!


And I think this would be called "Big" Blue Boo.....I made this tunic/dress to go and see Sex and the City last night with some girlfriends. Sorry for the bad photo....but iPhotoBooth is all I have available to photograph myself until my daughter learns photography. I'm working on S, M and L women's sizes for my Big Cartel shop!


We did a 15 minute makeover of Boo's room. No time to paint a mural as planned like the Fairy Forest mural I did for a client, but these peel and stick vinyl decals worked great from Wall Art Corner, one of my sponsors.



I was a little overwhelmed this week when Lil Blue Boo made it to the front page of Big Cartel as one of the most popular stores! I have the nicest, most supportive customers! I don't even think of myself as a "clothing company"....just a toddler/mommy duo that likes to make stuff! Thank you for making that happen!



Oh, and a sneak peek of a tutorial to come this week! I'm making this for Mr. LBB's birthday. We need some art for the hallway. Can you guess what it says?



And how about a giveaway?! I'm giving away 2 of these screen printed tees featuring a LBB starfish. All you have to do is refer someone to my Lil Blue Boo Facebook page, tell them to leave a comment saying that you sent them (leave the comment on the post announcing this giveaway). I'll pick a random number on Tuesday night.....if someone you referred wins, you win a t-shirt too!



And don't forget to start on your entry for the Lil Blue Boo and Dharma Trading Great Ugly Knit Upcycle! Great prizes!
