My friend Rebecca is a self taught sewer and she makes great products that can be found by shopping her Etsy site at http://www.etsy.com/shop/PonjerAndSessor.
Becca in action!
Rebecca started her business in August 2010. She received a sewing machine for her birthday present and it's been whirring ever since then. Most of her products are baby related like burp cloths, blankets, bibs, sensory toys, stuffed animals and clothes, but she also does custom orders. Rebecca sewed the pillows and curtains for my bedroom!

When asked about her favorite aspect of Ponjer and Sessor she said, "The best thing is probably being in charge of every detail and not being held accountable for things I didn't do."

Rebecca had her daughter five and a half weeks before Graham was born and so its has been fun to "try out" new products on the babies. Her daughter Gianna loves her sensory toy and her three older boys appreciate Rebecca's sewing. "Each of my children is such a unique customer! Reed loves most of what I make, while Liam can't be pleased. I will say that one night I checked on them and each of my boys had a stuffed animal from me in their beds with them. That was heartwarming!"
Rebecca is always willing to try new things and will gladly take custom orders. Despite being a busy bee stay-at-home mom of four she has a quick turn around time and often gets orders out in less than a week.
"I've had a few huge orders that I happily filled, but one of my best stories is being asked to applique on a quilt square last minute. I said yes even though I had never done applique in my life! I finished it, and applique became my favorite thing to do with my sewing machine."

Lots of neat stuff in the shop, but my favorite are the stuffed owls. Makes me want to see about getting a custom-made giraffe for Mallory.
My favorite is the yet-to-be-made stuffed monkey. In lieu of that, I like the yellow chevron burp cloth and the raccoon stuffed animals.

I think the blue whale burp cloths are super cute.
I'm a fan of the tootsie pop owl! Super cute!
I love the stuffed fox! So cute!!
I love the owls and fox stuffed animals!
Absolutely love the little stuffed animals!!! Would love to see if Becca could make some kind of a patch work turtle stuffed animal with girly colors. I will totally be buying bibs and burp cloths from you if or when another baby would come along in the future! Until then I will more than likely be purchasing some of your adorable products for some of my friends who will be expecting in the near future :)
I like the burp clothes because they are Mr. Graham's favorite item. Not that I need them for myself...well that probably depends on the day! Lol!
