Custom embroidered shirt ready for pick up.

I will let you in on a secret; Putting embroidery on ready-made items is a whole other level of stress. But generally doable. And it is always nice to see a design I put together on items. 🥰

Custom embroidery starts at $15 plus the price of the base.

I'd like to introduce you all to my pal, North.

A soft, cuddly but cheeky fellow who is ready to be at your side. Standing a proud 7" tall and about 5" wide, this maple leaf is handmade in Canada from bright polar fleece with an adorable embroidered face. Comes with an easy to remove split ring, so you have the option of clipping North to your backpack, hanging from your visor, or happily sit them on your shelf.

Handmade in small batches. Adoption fee of $10 each

Hands Off! 🇨🇦🦫

So... this was my vision when I first designed the embroidery panel. Oh, so cheeky, oh, so Canadian!

A brief encounter bag - can be worn as a belt bag, crossbody, or by shoulder strap - boldly declaring our sovereignty. The main body of the bag is a white fleece, which has the added benefit of being weather resistant, with a bold embroidery design. Offering a front slip pocket, a back zippered pocket, and a zipper clousure on the main section. The inside is lined with a themed cotton, featuring our proud and noble beaver with a cast of Canadiana woodland creatures and card slots so you can forego the wallet if you wish. Adjustable nylon strap, with metal clasp and slider. Made in Canada.

Available for purchase $30.

Very special, custom belt bag. Not only does this little number showcase one of my Elbows Up! embroidery panels, but it's made with repurposed denim and zippers by request. Great way to limit garment waste by creating something new and useful! Add in a bright and bold patriotic cotton for the lining and this one of a kind bag is ready to go.

Are you dubious of Reusable Cloth Pads for menstruation and light bladder leakage? You need to try them to know if they are right for you.

That's why the Backpack Pack is the perfect introductory choice. For only $12 you get a Reusable Wetbag and Liner - essentially making the pad only $2!

These zippered Wetbags are moisture resistant so you can toss them into your bag with confidence. Great for use with diva cups or tampons as well. 100% cotton outer, and a CPSIA compliant, lead-free, phalatate-free and food safe coated polyester liner (also know as PUL).

The liner is an environmentally conscious alternative to disposable products and handmade in a straightforward construction and with simple contents. 100% cotton topper, layers of cotton flannel to form a breathable but absorbent core and the same compliant, food safe PUL as the backing to keep moisture and wettness in the pad. The winged design uses BPA free snaps to gently hug the underwear and stay in place. Machine washable and can even be dried in a conventional dryer!

Pads also fold into themselves to create their own contained packaging. These are discreet with no telltale "package rustle" noise.

My embroidery panels aren't just for bags!

Check out this custom BBQ Apron that went out the door today.

Beautiful black denim provides the sturdy base to showcase the bold red pocket reminding us "Keep Calm and Elbows Up" with an iconic maple leaf to finish. Straps and ties are a lighter blend fabric for comfort, with a double D-ring fastener for the neck. Red detail stitching to tie the whole piece together.

Elbows Up!
