Expanding my Greek Market

My anchor pillows have been a fairly successful item in my etsy shop and I have sent quite a few of them to sorority houses across the US. Being an alumni of a sorority myself I thought that I should create a pillow for the ladies of Phi Sigma Sigma, the sorority that helped my 4 years in college to be some of the best years of my life. I have more plans to represent more sororities in my shop but I think that these will be the last two pillows posted in my shop until February as I have two ribbon rose bouquet orders to fill.

In addition to the pillows I am also participating in a block of the month quilt project hosted by Jennifer over at Sewhooked called Paper Piecing Vintage. My background fabric is Kona Solids Bone and my fabrics are all vintage inspired. Here are my fabrics and my finished January block, it’s called The King’s Crows.

Mustachio!

Wow! It has been almost 5 months since I last posted here. I really need to learn not to neglect my blog. I had a really busy (well, busy for me) season with my etsy shop. I have quite a few ideas in the pipe and will be posting at least one new fabric combination for my anchor pillows in the next month. After that it will be new designs! I can’t wait!

Mustache PillowThis holiday season I only handmade ONE gift! I cannot believe that was all I managed to get completed. Luckly I wasn’t planning on too many handmade gifts this year so I didn’t stress myself out or disappoint myself. What I did manage to make though, was this awesome mustache pillow for my teenaged niece. She loved it and I had a blast making it. The three mustache patterns are included as part of the TWELVE different mustaches that Jennifer from Sewhooked created for her Mustachio pattern.

The White Rabbit

Its been far too long since I have posted here, but today I have a wonderful excuse for my return. I have designed a new bunny pattern… a white rabbit, as a tribute to our bunny that lives with us here.

This block is part of the Spring Fling Blog Hop over on the Whims and Fancies Blog.

I hope you enjoy this adorable pattern!

Welcome to MKissa Creations Blog!! Most of you are probably here from the Whims and Fancies Halloween Blog Hop and I’m thrilled to have some new visitors. I recently moved my blog over here from a wordpress blog that was getting to me.

So anyways… lets get down to what you are really here for! The blog hop block of the day. Here are some Witch Shoes for your enjoyment! I love Halloween and was so excited to be able to participate in this blog hop. Please check out some of my other posts about Halloween and check back for the one more that I have coming.
