Welcome to 3 Green & Speckled Frogs!

Hello all! And welcome to 3 Green & Speckled Frogs! My name is Brooke and I'm glad you made it to my blogsite!

Here you will find mostly baby goodies, but some kiddo and adult goodies too. After my husband and I had our first baby, we decided it best for me to stay at home while it's possible. So, for now, my Speech therapy job is a part-time gig, and I'm proud to say that I'm a part time therapist, a part time embroidery queen, and a full time wife and Mommy (which is definately the hardest job of the three... as well as the most enjoyable!). What a lucky girl I am!

I recently picked up a superfun new hobby (embroidery and applique) and I am so glad to be able to share it with you. And that's what you'll find here, lots of embroidered items. I noticed it's quite hard to find cute boy things, so you'll probably notice I also have several items with guitars, skulls/crossbones, trucks, etc... Could you have ever guessed that I'm a mother to an adorable little boy?!?! But along the way, I have to admit, there have been LOTS of little girly prints and patterns that I just couldn't pass up! I decided to be fair, and make plenty for both, girls and boys...

I have several examples of items I've recently made in other posts, so feel free to be nosey and poke through all my entries! I'm also open to working on other various requested items, so if you have a question, please feel free to send me an email at any time!

So, it's been a while...


Well, what can I say? It's been a while since an update! Thought I'd take a moment and show some of my latest creations. Of course, I have been forgetting to take pictures... But it wouldn't be me if I remembered everything, right?
I've been really working on these pillowcase dresses. They are SO very cute for summer, and are just as cute in the fall with a long sleeved t or turtleneck underneath.



My best friend just moved into a new house, so of course, she needs a new apron!



And I know it's a little late, but the 4th of July shirt was a hit at our fireworks this year!





Here's the vintage set made for a neighbor who is about to have her first grandbaby! Grandmas need gifts, too.






And a collection of gifts for Mrs. Braelyn:












Hope you like the new stuff! I'll be adding personalized baskets and new bibs soon!

New boy print!

Well, I guess technically you could use this monster print on a girls item... But hey, it's really hard to find cute boy patterns! I'm gonna let them take the credit on this one! The multicolored thread is perfect with the material, right? And this little onsie... Oh. My.
I just love this necktie - why hadn't I put it on a shirt before now?? Laura, I hope you love your gifts for little William!
