a coffee pot & an iphone

Isn't my new model wicked cute? I made her myself...& the dress of course!

Who knew that the missing puzzle piece in my life was the all essential coffee pot. On a typical day Mr. Momi will stroll into my sweltering shop to iron his shirt for work & ask...did you even go to sleep? (not sweltering anymore..our ac is finally fixed & suddenly fall has set in) I have many many customers as well who question my sleep..or lack thereof. To anwser the pressing question...not much! I do put my heart, soul, & every waking moment into momi boutique so to make my life easier & make better use of my time I have indulged in some "things" to fuel my fire. Coffee pot...now replaces my 5 hour energy drinks...
iphone....not sure how I lived without this before. A terrific invention to say the least! I will know your every questions/concern/& comment anywhere, anytime of the day. I don't even have to get up from my sewing machine to check my mail..now that has be hands down the most lovely thing of all!
And to top the charts I decided it was time to crank it up a notch. I realized that even after taking the girls to daycare I do not get any more accomplished than I do with them home. My machines do not have a "the girls are at daycare" button to make them go any faster....until now! I dragged my dad with me this past wednesday to Philly (yes, I am a chicken to go driving into the city myself) & splurged on an industrial sewing machine. Why I didn't have one of these babies sooner is a question that is beyond me! Basically I am a control freak with Momi & can not bring myself to allow anyone else to sew your orders..which is actually a good thing. But, at 2000 stitches a minute...this machine is faster than a cheetah & scares me. Honestly, the machine is a power house & gives me anxiety just being within 5 yards of it. One day it & me will see eye to eye...


New designs coming to Momi boutique soon... :)

Shop Pink Momi tomorrow morning for 19+ new designs! Most are OOAK or Two of a Kind which means..


....you shouldn't miss out! New fabric combinations, lots of colors that POP, & "grow with me" designs. I only hope to see you all there!
Anyhow, so I was really starting to question whether or not I like my new "high key" style pics & lately I've thought..not so much....


I finally decided to give it a go at momiboutique.com & uploaded a bunch of my newer designs. I really have to say that I think the new "high key" pics look really Bad A**! (yes, I just swore, cover your ears, hide the children) ..but, you must admit it is true. Swing by & have a look for yourself... http://www.momiboutique.com/

You can find my fall designs so far listed under the "other" tab. Honestly, what was I thinking when i decided one of my sections would be "other" ?! Someday I will find "Other" things to put in there but, until then..it will be the location of my newest "in season" designs.
Hope to see you all tomorrow & thank you for reading my blog :)

* * * EXUBERANT * * *



Quite frankly, there is no good word to describe 2 day other than exuberant!

1. extreme in degree, size, or extent

2. joyously unrestrained and enthusiastic
(my blog can also be quite educating!)


The heat of summer has finally kicked in with some extreme degrees in the 90's which allows for some fabulous good old fashioned fun at the local ice cream spot. Funny how the heat never seemed to bother me in Hawaii, now I feel like I'm in a sauna...I guess that may not be such a bad thing! Lily & Leah are beyond enthusiastic & joyously unrestrained every time we make our way to the ice cream spot. Did I mention my children DO NOT get out much!


I must mention also that I have been receiving hands down some of the cutest little girls in my inbox. Thank you all & thank you always...it's moments like these that keep Momi boutique in full swing!
Remeber back in the day (or maybe it was just a month or two ago!) when I had the OOAK watermelon wagon giveaway?....well, here was the end result...

What a great little watermelon picker this one is!

Be sure to swing by tomorrow at 11 for an exciting new Art Show saturday piece. It's a simplistic design but, just plain pretty & definitely lots of bang for your buck!
Thank you always to all those loyal Momi lovers out there....you are a light in my life :)
See ya tomorrow!
