Design process


This is what I started with.....a drawing of a UH1Y
I am not an artist myself, so I scour the internet to find the perfect picture. This one happened to be in my files from Mr. Skidz's old squadron.

The image then gets digitized so that the embroidery machine can read it.

This is the applique version of it. Applique is when you use one fabric and sew it onto another fabric/surface.
I also have a filled design of the UH1Y that will be released soon as well!!

What I'm going to miss....

The last few months have ushered in new  changes for our business. We are switching gears and listing all of our pre-made items on the etsy site instead of preparing for new shows here in San Diego.

Why you might ask? Well we are also going through a few changes in our life, Skidz baby #4 will be arriving and Mr. Skidz will be deploying. I know that I will not be able to handle the load here at home and be prepared for local shows. Give us another year or so then watch out as I am very excited about some of the new opportunities here in California!

We are thankful for our loyal fans and customers who are sticking with us during this growing phase!

I am very much going to miss meeting new customers face to face and learning your stories. That has been the favorite part of my "job" this far in our journey. 

We are hoping to do 2 small shows. One in October and one in November. Stay tuned for more information on those! In the meantime, please enjoy a 15% discount on your total purchase in our etsy store. We need to destash as our sewing studio is not as large as North Carolina. Just enter sample15 when you are ready to check out!

News on custom orders

Hi guys!
We are settling into our new home and I am slowly getting my sewing studio to where it needs to be.
We will be reopening for business September 1st. I will be posting a huge amount of stock at discount prices to make room for new products.
We will not be able to take custom orders at this time for a few reasons....
1. We found out we are expecting Skidz kid #4 in February.
2. Mr. Skidz will be deploying before the newest arrives.
I want to spend time with him and our family without the pressure of custom orders that are due. Deployments are notriously hard and we don't want to miss a single minute with him.
I will be introducing a few new products and still sewing pre mades for sale. If I decide that the schedule can handle a few custom orders, I will open it up for first come, first served. 
Thank-you all for your support and business! We appreciate it!

Something old & something new....

Just a reminder....
Skidz Wife Creations is closed for new orders at this time due to maternity complications.
Thank-you so much for referring me to your friends and for returning for 2nd & 3rd orders. I so appreciate it! I hope that when I come off of maternity leave that I can continue to serve you and your family!
After much research, I will be adding Mylar embroidery upon my return. (I am hoping to add quite a few new items to the line!)
If you would like to check it out, please look at the designs that I have already purchased....
For those of you non-facebookers.....


I have also purchased several new regular embroidery designs that I am looking forward to using! You can find those at
