I'm sitting here working, and it's going to be 106 degrees outside today! I was under the impression that when I moved from Arizona to Los Angeles in the late 80's, I wouldn't have to put up with the heat any longer. Wrong!! I was out and about over the weekend and thought I was going to melt. Nothing like sticking my head in the freezer to cool off! Grab an iced drink, and enjoy the short read about July's happenings.
Take Your Handmade Creations up a Notch with Crocheted Appliques
Handmade crocheted appliques add a delightful and personalized touch to custom baby blankets, making them truly one-of-a-kind keepsakes, which is why I was thrilled when Lourdes asked me to stitch the two puppy paws I previously created for her onto one of her handmade, crocheted baby blankets. What a joy for the new parents to receive this beautiful gift that truly comes from the heart! So, whether you ask Knit Me Sew Me to design a blanket for your own little one or if you are gifting one to a family member or a friend, handcrafted appliques transform a simple blanket into an heirloom that will be treasured forever.

Receiving a glowing testimonial from a satisfied customer not only validates hard work but also serves as an inspiring reminder of the positive impact our products and services have on others. That couldn’t be said any better than the testimonial Knit Me Sew Me received from Kelly Flowers (Eleven 14 Financials). Kelly writes: “Alise has a wonderful gift of creating handmade gifts. In an era where many items are massed produced, Alise uses her talent to create one-of-a-kind items for any occasion. You should definitely take a look. You can see her fun-loving attitude displayed in every item.” Kelly, your kind words warm my heart. Thank you for understanding and spreading the word that handmade is the way to go when spending your hard-earned money.
