New Website

I knew it was a long time since my last post, but I was quite shocked to see it was as far back as Aug. I'm sure there are many of you that are in the same situation being a "one man band" with only so many hours in the day to do it all.  I do however have a few good excuses for my absence. I have a brand new redesigned website as of today. I am so proud of the work that I and others have done on this and I can't wait for you to see it. Please check it out at:  http://www.ttykes.com

If you liked my digitized embroidery designs along with the "freebies" and don't see them on the new site...NO WORRIES! I am working on a second website for just the designs. It will simply be called Trendy Tykes Designs. Hopefully I will be announcing that new website in a couple of weeks.

I hope you will share Trendy Tykes website with all your friends and family. Just for checking out my post I want to welcome you back with a coupon to use on my new site. If you make a purchase, just enter the coupon code WELCOME in the appropriate box in your shopping cart. I have some new items and more to come soon. I will be adding items soon to my new Made to Match category. Here you will find items to match for Moms and Daughters and Fathers and Sons. They can also be a great gift for grandparents!

I've been working overtime to get items made and into a couple of stores. One is Oggi's, here in Michigan and the other is American Artwork Gallery in Forrest Park, IL. If you live around either area I hope you will visit these stores and see not only my unique quality items, but all the other fabulous artists wares.

Thanks for visiting today. I'll be back soon!
