Crafty Texas Girls: 8/1/10

Football Season

I love Texas football- being outside, cheering on the team, and of course- cute lil cheerleaders. I have had lots of requests for 'made to match- football' bows. Here's a peek.

And my favorite so far, have been for this cutie.

It is her first year cheering on the Pee-Wee squad. I made her a Royal bow and a Streamer bow. Such an adorable rah-rah girl!

A Tie for Your Lil Guy

My nephew Luke is the cutest lil guy I know. But since he has been born, I have not been able to shower him with handmade gifts because my craftiness usually leads to me bows, tutus etc.

Afton did try to get a bow on Luke when he was about 6 months old.

So I was thrilled when I finally had an idea. Luke was being baptized and needed something special to wear. And Voila! I made him a 'lil guy tie'.

Since I also made the girls coordinating pillow case dresses, I decided to pull from that fabric for my color inspiration. The neck has velcro closure and the tie is about 10 inches long. Of course his momma styled it perfectly- gap khakis, a white button down and brown loafers.
