Little This, A Little That

Back to photography.  Aren't her eyes beautiful!!!!!!  Oooh, I love them.  I took this picture in color and once again added a box camera effect to turn it black and white.  It also gave the picture a vignette look to it.  Sweet girl.

Speaking of borders, I really like the borders that I tried out on these two pictures.  Kind of fun.  Yes, I took a picture of myself, looking as if I am solving all the world's problems or inventing something better than the new Ipad that will make me billions upon billions of dollars.......Yes.  My name is Meredith and I am a dork.


Hayden's boot's, aren't they cute!  I love the polaroid frame!

This is a random picture, no picture techniques, but yes important to see so that you can know The Powell Family even more.  Mark parents have goats that they have down at their lake to keep the brush down.  This nanny ended up have quadruplets!!!!!!  Unbelievable really.  They decided to bring them in town to make sure that they were okay and surviving especially because a big cold spell was about to hit.  The kids love them!  The babies are so cute and in a couple of weeks they will be bouncing and jumping all over the place.  


Here are some shirts I embellished.  I like the flower I did on the bottom shirt.  I didn't really want to mess with sewing the flower to the shirt so I did a velcro backing so I could remove the flower or change it out later if I wanted with a different fabric flower.  Please ignore the hand stitching on the back of the flower and the machine stitching on the velcro on the shirt.  I was rushed, not paying attention and who cares, no one is going to see it.  Why bother pulling out the white thread?  Lazy.  Yes, lazy.  Oh, on the pink tank I left the edges ragged because I want them to fray a bit after it is washed, however I don't want it to keep fraying for all eternity, so I zigzag stitched it with pink and green thread, to keep it decorative, but hopefully halt the fraying at that point.
And just because she's cute......

Love the picture of Macy!!! Did you make the bow that Ella had on at church Sunday? It was so cute and looked like something your talent could pull off.

Kami,
I wish! I am not a talented bow maker. I've tried. They are sad looking usually. That was actually a gift from a friend. I think she got it at London Bridge.
