Holy Blanket! It's Batgirl!


This blanket is perfect for a girl who loves her some Superheroes! Sized generously at 42x57, it is perfect to grow with them all the way up to high school! The cityscape at the bottom is the perfect backdrop for the Batman and Catwoman (or Batgirl) love triangle! Your little Wonder Woman will be ready to fight crime when the Batsignal is thrown over her! Adding the catlike leopard border gives it just enough sass for your little snarky Catwoman!

Hot Pink & Black Damask Print




First off, I just have to say is Palmer not the coolest little girl's name ever? It reminds me of a 80's/90's supermodel. Remember James King - the supermodel slash actress? I love her! I bet Palmer could totally be a future James King. Palmer's blanket is unique in the fact that the big is a minky patchwork with an added middle strip of the cotton damask front. I need to make this blanket again. It's simple and amazing and definitely fit for a baby work the runway!! Email me at shelli130@sbcglobal.net to discuss your cool blanket creation!

It's Mom's Turn!


Have you ever read those passages in books or blogs about a "Mom Minute"? My "Mom Minute" is when I kiss my kiddos goodnight, tuck them in and then go tuck myself in to my own big comfy blanket and read for a bit. This blanket was made for a special breast cancer survivor who is my hero. She is my daugther's life changer, a wonderful wife and an amazing mom and a boss speech therapist (as my son would say)! These Mom blankets are on special, marked down from $175 to $130 until the end of October. It's a sure fire way to show that special Mom or Grandmother how much you adore them. Wrap them in your love every night.

It's A Girl Thing!

Most of my awesome customers adore these crazy patch blankets, and although they are tedious, I have to admit I love them too! The textures and colors are sure to keep baby's eyes and hands busy. This particular blanket mixes minky dot, fine cord and a smooth minky leopard applique. Some people think pink & brown are OVAH as far as the baby market goes. I, for one, though think you cannot get much more luxe and rich than these colors and designs. Backed in a chocolate brown minky dot, this blanket is sure to become baby's favorite, as well as your own! This 30x36 blanket is $65.00 with a name applique included.

SUPER MARIO BROS. BIRTHDAY(S)!

Zudi & Vi is where I normally just post blankets, however, I had time this evening and I have been wanting to share my daugther's Super Mario Bros. slash Princess Peach Birthday Party and all her cakes! She had about 3 Super Mario themed cakes in a row for a few years, but for her 5th birthday we finally did an all out Mario party with lots of friends! We rented out the local Marble Slab Creamery Party room, which came equip with a custom cake! You can see in the photos below, I have lots of Mario cakes, theirs is the white iced with pink writing. It was darling! (and yummy!) All the other cakes/cookies were made via a local "cake lady", come on! We all have those in our town, and they are hard to beat! The party was very simple, we played "Pin The Mustash On Mario", Egg Race, Dance A Thon, and Koopa Bean Bag Toss. I failed to get a good pic of the Koopa Bean Bag Toss, but I just drew out a Koopa on a white piece of posterboard and cut out holes to match a bean bag toss game. We gave out plastic gold coins for each time they played a game, and then they traded them in for goody bags and balloons at the end of the party. The baloons were found on ebay and we had the Mario cloud balloons, Princess Peach balloons and heart balloons. The goody bags were filled with Mario & Friends various iced cookies, chocolate wrapped gold coins, Princess Peach and Koopa Lip Balm (found online at amazon.com), Super Mario Temporary Tattoos (found at the local party store) and then fun little fillers, also purchased at the party store. The "Happy Birthday Banner" was made by me and a dear friend who used her Crikut machine to cut out the letters for me. I hand drew the Mario Flower Power. I purchased the giant cardboard Princess Peach for photo ops from an online party store. The Birthday Girl wore what I thought was the best part of the party...the DARLING dress I had custom made from the wonderful Etsy seller "BravaBoutique" It also has designs on the back. It is an upcycled Mario Tee Shirt and the pictures don't do it justice! It is darling! I topped it off with a Princess Peach-esque crown just for the birthday girl! The other princesses wore smaller crowns and the boys (and some girls! wore mustashes!) The party was a huge hit! I thought her 6th birthday would be a repeat, but she switched over to Batgirl this time! Pictures to come! Let me know if you have any questions or want some more details! We are a Mario-loving family and I would love to share! Let's A Go!

This Blanket is Bananas! B A N A N A S!

In my opinion, it is pretty hard to beat hot pink and bright orange! YES, I am an Oklahoma State University Cowboys nut, but these colors just do it for me! This blanket is eye catching for others as well as for baby! It is beautiful in photographs, but casual and washable enough to fall on the floor at Wal Mart! 30x38 is $65.00 and includes a name! email me at shelli130@sbcglobal.net to order!
