Sweat shirts for my granddaughters. They were not very enthused so I am not sure if they will ever be worn. They are getting ready to leave for a vacation 2 yrs in the making. They are going to Yellowstone National Park. My son-in-law has taken care of all the details including car rental, lodging, lunch and dinner for two weeks. The Old Faithful Inn stays booked two years in advance. I get to keep their dog, Bella who is a pain and spoiled. The designs came from Embroutique.com and they stitched out great. Kay

I think that the shirts are darling.And you have done a wonderful job with them. How old are the girls? They all go through a difficult stage at some point.

They look good to me. I think the designs are fun.
You didn't say if they were teens.
My bet is if they get cold enough or wet they will wear them.
Makes me cross when people are ungrateful.

Yes, at the awkward age!!! 13 and 15. The 15 yr old has been a soccer girl for many years and the 13 yr old has bounced from many sports and found few to her liking.. Kay

I think they are great! Hopefully the girls do and just aren't showing it.Those ages are difficult and they may think it's not too cool to show their love out loud!

Aw, sweetie, I'll bet they just have hot weather blinders on like I do. I found a sale the other day of some beautiful sweaters that were name brand and super sale priced. BUT, I was so hot, I couldn't even look through them or get enthused. You'll get photos back of the girls in these- wait and see.

Now what's not to like about these shirts. You have done a great job , I love what each says and would be very enthusiastic if I was a teen and received one. Another great job from you Kay. Hugs/Lillian

You know me , my sense of fashion is crazy. too many years in retailing to ever change. Kids have to see it on someone else before they can wear it. What a shame!!

They only need for one friend to like it or be jealous and they will come back and hug you. Peer influence SO important. My older son hated my new house because it was pink stucco and he was embarrassed to be living in it (in high school). Then a girl friend of his and her boyfriend came by for a quick visit and sat in the swing in the back yard. On their way out, leaving, the girl said, "we just love your little house." After that day, he thought it was cool!

Yes , I know they all want the same thing. I always wanted to be different. I was so proud of the clothes my Mom made me as they were were like no one else had!

Well I got Bella today and all Hell has broken loose. Can I say that? Bella ate her food and my Kiki's food ,too and when I took Bella out for her final pee the cat ran out and went over the fence. I probably won't see my Kiki until tomorrow. Kay
