Happy Birthday to One Cool Kid and (Another) Applique Project

My amazing little niece, Avery, turns 1 today. She is the cutest little lady with a huge smile and big bright eyes. For her big day I wanted to show her how special (and cool!) I think she is; so I put together a little care package to send her way.  In doing this I also incorporated my obsession for applique one more time.  I guess I just can't get enough- but it's so easy, and the results are always great, so why wouldn't I?!?

This time I went to my local second hand baby clothes store and picked up a stylin' jean jacket for a mere $6. I then used my favorite technique to personalize the piece and spunk it up a little bit for this cool little girl.



Nothing goes better with a cool kid jacket than a killer pair of kicks. I bought this pair off of Zappos (got to love the overnight shipping!) for Miss Avery to rock with her new jean wear.

I think it makes for a pretty awesome combo.  Definitely a statement look. 

Side note: while I was at the second hand store I also picked up a few pairs of jeans for my own little bebe, June.  I think I might keep up the applique theme and add some stars or other shapes in cool fabrics to the knees.  I'll keep you posted.

Enjoy the day!
