I cut out two hearts and sewed them on the front 3/4 of the way, and then put enough stuffing between the fabric and the heart to make it look quilted when I sewed over it in zigzag stiching. I chose dark thread over the hearts to contrast it with the navy blue shirt color. I took thin ribbon on each shirt and using the zig zag stitch, sewed the ribbon around the neck.
I found some great packaging form my petal patch items, although I need to change my labels to the new logo - although I still like the one in the photo. These I sold to one of my daughters ballet moms. My nausea is still going strong and I still don't have an appointment with anyone, although, it's not from a lack of trying. My friend is helping me get in to see a specialist which she says takes 4 months, she thinks I might be able to get in in 2 weeks! If you see my get thinner in the next two weeks, it's because everything makes me nauscious, my food staple right now is ritz crackers and anything that is white in color. White bread, crackers, spaghetti etc...
PS, so sad about Romney! What is a girl to do now, vote for someone she doesn't want in the white house, or hope that Romney will be chosen as the VP on the McCain/ Romney ticket?!! It took three times for Reagan to be elected - I'm not giving up on Romney yet!
Is your house decorated for Valentine's Day yet?
What did you think about the Romney news today?

Score on the shirts. You did a great job doctoring them up so cute.
Sadly I haven't even thought about Valentines Day and it's a week away. I guess I should start thinking......
those shirts are so cute :)
I was so bummed to hear about MITT!
thanks for your cute comment on my blog! Kat picked out her own fabric, at Pine Needles in Gardner Village if you ever make it out to SLC. It's Amy Butler (kat has fabulous taste). Oh and I feel the exact same way about Romney, so sad :( I have no idea who to vote for now! I love your little Etsy Shop!
I was very encouraged by your reminder that it took Reagan 3 times to be elected. I've had the blues all day about my beloved Mitt :(
WHY ARE YOU NAUSEOUS? I missed it. What's wrong. I hate feeling nauseated. Blech. (hugs) for you.
YOUR PETAL PATCH GOODIES ARE SO CUTE!!! I can't wait to order some leg warmers for Mimi.
And those Love Shirts! To die for. WAY cuter than anything to be found at the Gap, rest assured. Those are just too darling.
Chin up, Nausea Queen.
Your new logo is very cool and very pretty. Oh so pretty.
And way to go on the valentines shirts. You are one creative momma! I just pick out something red or pink and put it on my kids. I've never done official valentines clothes. Now I'm trying to think of something I can fandangle that will be cute like yours!
Your so creative. I love what you did with the shirts. In fact I think I may borrow your idea. :0)
I love what you did with those shirt. I wish I could be able to do as well.
Your daughters are really sweet with those little hearts on the pîcture of the top of your blog. I love this picture.
oh my are those cute shirts.
good luck with the specialist.
keep us posted.
the shirts are adorable - wish i could do something *cute* for jack (ha-ha)
our house has been decorated for about 2 weeks. i love that our valentine's decorations are subtle, but colorful!!
sorry to hear you're not feeling well.
Luv the shirts for your girlies! No, my house isn't decorated for Valentine's day. We've all been under the weather and I had some great ideas...but, nothing has come to fruition yet. I even stashed a bunch of little valentines gifts to give each day and they are in my closet on the floor. Oh well. Yes, sad about Romney, but not a huge surprise. He did himself a real favor by backing out the way he did though and people are already talking about him for 2012! Feel better!
Your girls are lucky to have their special valentines shirts. I was just thinking about doing something up for my little girls . . .
Those shirts are so cute! You are the craft queen!
I know what ya mean about Mitt. I do not like the thought of any of the remaining canadates! AAGGRH!
