Hello everyone! My name is Ashlee and I'm so excited to begin this journey of blogging here. I hope we all enjoy the adventure. This will be my first blog and first blog post And it all coincides with my first etsy site (createdbymammy) and it's first year.
Alright, a little background; I am a stay-at-home mom of 3. My daughter was born last November and after her birth I became really interested in sewing! Which just so happened to be a great thing; because my mom (Mammy) is an awesome seamstress and quilter and she was hoping I would learn to sew as well!
Long story short we started working together: exchanging ideas, expanding skill set and before you know it we had a stack of quilts to the ceiling and we decided to open an etsy shop so that we could keep creating and diminish that stack of quilts.
I plan to use this space and blog to describe my ideas for quilts, share ideas for projects, and hopefully inspire others to get crafty (and maybe brag a little at my own creativeness) ;)
We have discovered what's hot for nurseries. Owls are OUT and hedgehogs are in! Of course I can see why: They are so cotton-pickin' adorable. The one we have featured here is brown with a dark red body and blue-green eyes, and all around him are mushrooms. The hedgehog is an embroidery design by Mammy. We paired the hedgehog embroidery with some vintage-like mushroom fabric, soft yellow, mint green and a splash of dark red (for contrast). We love this new little guy and can't wait to see what else this season holds for CreatedbyMammy!
