NO, and it drives me batty!

Me too!!!

 

[babynala]

Here is the one set of shirts I made for our upcoming trip. My brother in law insisted he wanted a tinkerbell shirt, so I couldn't resist making it happen for him.

So cute! Can't wait to see your brother in law in that tink shirt!

Ellen these are great.

I am heading to bed. I had a rough day being a Mommy.

I hope a new day will be a better day for your DS and you.

It's crazy the things people say! Our girls will be very close in age.


On another note, is there a way to multiple quote from an iPad?

NO, and it drives me batty!

Me too!!!

I just did this multiquote via my iPhone. Its just a smaller version of the iPad.
There is hope. I just had to enlarge the screen to touch the multiqote button and then wa did the same for this post. Just made sure i was under all the quotes.

We will overlap with you - Epcot all day on 9/29 and DHS all day on 9/30. I'll be on the lookout for those shirts! We'll be wearing Epcot balloons on Thurs. (Maybe - see below) and Star Wars Mickey and friend on Fri.

I'm guessing the left 'pocket' ones are for your dh? My dh wants one like that, but I thought even a 4x4 design would be too big in that spot. Is your dh a big guy?

Here is a picture of my Grand Daughter's shirt I did for her showing that she was finally 40inches tall. This is not the best picture, but it is the only one I can find. When my computer crashed...well let's just say this new computer has its own way of naming the pictures and I still have problems finding them all!

40 inches

Again, one of Heather Sue's designs. I got the idea from Jessica. So it is a total CASE! My only personal touch was the ruler ribbon I found on Etsy.

Nini

Love this one! My oldest is 39" and we leave Tuesday. He'll have to wait for the next trip.

I'm with you on the non-Heather Sue designs. I've done three from a different seller that all have fill-stitching issues and an outline stitch that is WAY off. So frustrating!

Has anyone else stitched out the Mickey with Epcot balloons? I need to do it three more times, but I'm so disheartened by the outline stitching and weak fill that I'm not sure I care to put in the time.

So cute! I LOVE that Jake and the NLP version of the croc and Captain Hook!

I have done it once, along with the minnie I was disappointed in that too.

I haven't received a PM from princesskayla about my entry for the Project Runway.

Has anyone else received one? I know she has trouble with her internet.

I'll be on the lookout for you. And thanks so much for the compliments. This trip was a true labor of love for me...even though I had ZERO dresses to make! So strange!

Yes, Hubby is a LARGE man and would not wear anything that had a big picture on it, so he agreed to the pocket style. I always felt the 4x4 was a little small, but he says they are perfect!

I bought the Mickey and Minnie with the balloons, but have never used it. I've heard a lot of people say it was a difficult design, a little off on the satin stitches and took forever! I had planned on using it for Epcot, but couldn't justify the time investment.

Nini, I love all the shirts! It looks like we may cross paths Weds at Hollywood Studios or Thurs at AK. I will keep an eye out for your group. We will be me, DH, DSIL and DBIL. I have only done one set of shirts, not sure which day we will wear them.

I'll be looking for you!

I love all of these!!!!! You guys will look great!



That's what I was really hoping for!



She should have given you the shirts back so you could sell them on CBRG!

Teresa I couldn't even get her to let me put the dresses on CBRG. I had several people asking about a smaller size when I listed my daughter's size 10's...even had someone wanting big sister/little sister in the RIGHT Sizes!

Although it looks like my GD will be wearing the Minnie dress fro MNSSHP this year....

I might take you up on that. Thank you.... I need to let her watch the movie again. It is not one she has seen a lot and has no idea who the stepsisters are.

NINI: It looks like the only two nights our paths might cross are Saturday and Tuesday. We are eating at Park Fare at 4:55, and then Tuesday we will be in Epcot. We have 5:30 ressies at Chefs.
Your shirts look great. I did do one set for all of us. Everything else has been for the kids. Seeing how great your pics look though it makes me want to do more. Like I have the time.

Sure you have the time....I wouldn't but YOU would! LOL!

Our dinners are at 7pm...if you are in the area...shout!





I know we didn't make it to 240 last night before I went to bed...but I figure if I post a picture of me now it should be hidden once the move is made...

[/url] Photo0164FourBySix by ninimorris, on Flickr[/IMG]

I decided to be fair and have a picture that EVERYONE looks horrible in! LOL! The girls are not wearing their pettiskirts (they did put them on for dinner) and you cannot see anyone's dwarf...except for Mr D of course! Take my word for it...all 7 of the dwarfs are represented!



Nini

 

[cogero]

So cute! Can't wait to see your brother in law in that tink shirt!


I hope a new day will be a better day for your DS and you.

Thank you so much, actually it was parenting the almost 10 year old girl that was getting to me. We started the boy on a sensory diet the other day and he has been pretty good since then.

 

[VBAndrea]

Thanks everyone for the compliments on the shirts! I Love it!

I have to tell you, my DIL is heart broken at this very moment. All her Disney shirts are lost in the mail (or UPS or whatever way they were sent!) They were supposed to arrive last Friday and she received an email today that there was a problem with the electronic address and they were missent.

Anyway,

Here is a picture of my Grand Daughter's shirt I did for her showing that she was finally 40inches tall. This is not the best picture, but it is the only one I can find. When my computer crashed...well let's just say this new computer has its own way of naming the pictures and I still have problems finding them all!

Nini

Figures her shirts are lost in the mail -- that's what she gets for going with Disney and not you! And I don't understand why she can't wear her shirts again. I could possibly see some things like CM not being worn again, but I think many of them could be re-worn at home.

Also, if she has things that were only worn once you could donate them to a BG family. Many are happy to accept things that were worn once. I have never sent anything but I'm waiting for a boy to fit into a Mickey print shirt that according to my ds would be *embarrassing* to wear at home. All you do is ask the administrator of the give to find out if it's OK with the family.

I remember that shirt -- so very cute!

Come on...surely we can get to 240 before I have to head to bed...If we do I promise I will post a picture of .....me? Maybe I will post one on page 240...that way not too many people will see it...yes, that will work.


Nini

PS... I blame this all on Cheryl...I miss all the humor...so I am attempting to make my own! BAD NINI!!!

But I now know what you like -- and then you had to go ahead and dye your hair jet black since I said I had always pictured you as a blonde LOL!

Happy anniversary (one day early)! I hope it will be a nice day for both of you.

Thanks!

Great shirts and I hope your BIL gets to meet Tink! I love the croc shirt!

I am heading to bed. I had a rough day being a Mommy.

I am sorry -- hope you have a much better day today. Being a mommy is the hardest job and the pay $uc!$, but it can be very rewarding.

love that stepsister dress...we ate there when we were there in may/june and enjoyed it! here's the dresses i made the girls,Chloe as cinderella and the twins Kensleigh & Gracie as the stepsisters...Chloe was just telling her pre-k teacher lasyt week that her sisters were ttrying to take HER prince charming at disney world! hehe in the pick they are telling cinderella she cannot go to the ball...

That is so cute that Cindy is being scolded!

I'm guessing the left 'pocket' ones are for your dh? My dh wants one like that, but I thought even a 4x4 design would be too big in that spot. Is your dh a big guy?

C.

My dh wears a medium and I did a 4x4 shirt for him with that placement and it looks fine (not too big at all). My dh is actually pretty thin and would not be considered a big guy by any means (though he's not short--he's 6 ft tall). His complaint is that I put the design too far to the left.

I have been very fortunate with most designs. On one design I did that was actually Heather's I got a little gap in stitching (probably from me stretching the t funny and it was minimal) so I just touched it up with a fabric marker. I get all my Dis from Heather, some non dis from Planet Applique (which has all been great) and I have several designs of horses and trains that are fill from Embroidery Library which have all been great. I've gotten many odd designs from other places and have been very lucky.

I haven't received a PM from princesskayla about my entry for the Project Runway.

Has anyone else received one? I know she has trouble with her internet.

I always send her a both an e-mail and a pm and she hasn't responded to me either this time. She has very spotty internet so I'm willing to bet that's the case this time. I hate it hough b/c I love seeing what everyone created -- we have such fabulous projects all the time that it's very inspiring.

No response for me yet either, so probably her internet.

 

[DMGeurts]

K, got a couple more things done on the weekend.

First an upcycle for a co-workers daughter. And it's Disney related, something I very rarely have. It's a Marie cutie.


IMG_7947 by tricialee22, on Flickr

Wow! I loved it all!

DD7 has decided she wants to be Alice for Halloween. (We got to meet Alice in Disney and I think that has impacted her choice!)

So, I was thinking about the costume. I am thinking the Precious Dress for the main dress. Does this sound right? Does any have any thoughts on the apron to go over the dress?

Super excited to do this one!

Love this pic! And I agree, it would be a super fun dress to make.

Sorry, I haven't posted in awhile. I have been so busy w/homeschooling starting up again, being pregnant, hving migraines, etc.

I did find out we are having another girl! We r excited but have been amazed at how people act like it is a disappointment since it is not a boy and we already have 2 girls....kind of hurtful. I will need even more sewing time now.

.

Congratulations! I would be excited to have 3 girls!

We are leaving early Friday morning (3am to be exact!). Hubby is a police officer. He got notice this morning that he has a court date on the 26th...we will be at Chef Mickey's. Since we are on vacation, he is allowed to have the court date changed. The person involved is upset that it is being changed because he gets to go on vacation.

Hubby doesn't get to choose the court date...it is chosen by the court clerk. He should get to take a vacation with his family too...

So, if you ever hear about a police officer having the court dates changed for a trial...please be understanding. Usually they don't get notified until 48 hours before the court date. They have a life too!

Nini

Not that I ever go to court - LOL - but If I ever do - I will remember. You will have a wonderful vacation!

I guess it is time I finally get my shirts posted...how else are you going to find me at the parks...since I don't let people take my picture too often!

First up is our shirt we wear on the way to Disney.

We will not be staying for MNSSHP this year...maybe next year.

Nini

I love each and every one of your shirts! Congratulations on finishing everything in time!

I will be back later because I have a pricing questions. This is where making things gets hard.

I totally agree with you 100%. I have a very hard time pricing my items, as well. For curiosity, the other day, I priced out my recent Donald Duck outfit... After supplies, Paypal/Etsy fees... I made $2.74/hour on that dress. I feel like all of my outfits are outrageously priced, and I am sure I drive DH crazy lamenting over it, but I agonize over each and every outfit I make and how to price it out. I try so hard to be reasonable when I am pricing, but it just seems impossible. I just keep telling myself that what I make is good quality and unique, some people will pay for that, and some people won't - and that's OK. Sure, I could make a bunch of really cheaply made, less detailed outfits, but then I risk sacraficing my integrity and reputation. Does any of this make sense? So, price your items with what you feel they are worth, someone somewhere will be willing to pay the price for quality and uniqueness - it may take a while - but it will happen.

I will be spending my day in my sewing room... I plan to work out this morning - and maybe go for a walk this afternoon. My plantar fascitis is really starting to flare up again - I think it's because I am wearing such old shoes - so I ordered new shoes the other day - I hope they get here soon. I really need to get to work on some of these outfits though.

D~

Oh - and babynala... I completely missed quoting your gorgeous outfits that you posted... I loved all of them!

 

[GrammytoMany]

Those are really cute shirts. Hope you enjoy your trip! I'm new to the board and I'm really impressed with all the beautiful clothes all of you are creating.

 

[NiniMorris]

I just got my first email reminder from Disney about my ADR coming up on Friday! How cool is that!

Nini

 

[mkwj]

In a effort to move this post along here are some of the outfits I made for dd. I am going to have to take in the sides a little of some of them.
She was going to wear this Saturday night, but since I changed the reservation, now I am not sure.

 

[mkwj]

I am almost finished with this one. Worked on it all day yesterday. It is not exactly what I wanted to do, but I am happy with it. She loves it.

and the back

 

[mkwj]

She told me Roo was her favorite, so I put him on here. Too bad we won't see him. This is one I need to take the sides in.

 

[mkwj]

This one is for MK. I loved the material, and didn't want to do to much with it to break it up.

 

[mkwj]

Her AK outfit

okay I did my part to move this along. I need to get ds to try all of his on, but he is at school. I think I have posted most of my other outfits already. Now to finish the rest.

 

[mommy2mrb]

love all the new outfits and shirts being posted!

so happy we get to wear our custom shirts another trip!

we leave in 23 days

 

[teresajoy]

I wish I felt more sorry for your DIL, but I can't help thinking "serves her right". Apparently, I need to work on being more compassionate today! I do hope they show up though.

I love the height shirt!!! How cute is that!!!

Come on...surely we can get to 240 before I have to head to bed...If we do I promise I will post a picture of .....me? Maybe I will post one on page 240...that way not too many people will see it...yes, that will work.


Nini

PS... I blame this all on Cheryl...I miss all the humor...so I am attempting to make my own! BAD NINI!!!

You see, I went to bed early last night, and woke up at 4AM in a cold sweat worried that you guys got real chatty and got to page 250 and the thread got locked again!!!

Yes, yes I do find too many things to worry about....

What a fun photograph! Oh and thanks for clarifying the "hot dog" thing, since I thought I misread your paragraph!

I'm glad I did it then!!!

Now you have me wondering if the food has gotten worse at 1900 Park Fare, because we've always been so happy with the food there.

Here is the one set of shirts I made for our upcoming trip. My brother in law insisted he wanted a tinkerbell shirt, so I couldn't resist making it happen for him.

I love it!!!!

love that stepsister dress...we ate there when we were there in may/june and enjoyed it! here's the dresses i made the girls,Chloe as cinderella and the twins Kensleigh & Gracie as the stepsisters...Chloe was just telling her pre-k teacher lasyt week that her sisters were ttrying to take HER prince charming at disney world! hehe in the pick they are telling cinderella she cannot go to the ball...

I just love that picture!!!

Teresa I couldn't even get her to let me put the dresses on CBRG. I had several people asking about a smaller size when I listed my daughter's size 10's...even had someone wanting big sister/little sister in the RIGHT Sizes!

Although it looks like my GD will be wearing the Minnie dress fro MNSSHP this year....

How frustrating!!!!

And, I love the picture!!! I like seeing pictures of everyone.
You crack me up that you tried to pick a picture where no one is looking their best!!!

In a effort to move this post along here are some of the outfits I made for dd. I am going to have to take in the sides a little of some of them.
She was going to wear this Saturday night, but since I changed the reservation, now I am not sure.

This is such a cute dress, I love that Minnie fabric.

She told me Roo was her favorite, so I put him on here. Too bad we won't see him. This is one I need to take the sides in.

I LOVE this one!!! Roo is so cute!!! The dress looks great. Instead of taking it in, how about just sewing ties onto the sides? That's what I usually do, and then they can wear it longer too.

Her AK outfit

okay I did my part to move this along. I need to get ds to try all of his on, but he is at school. I think I have posted most of my other outfits already. Now to finish the rest.

Very pretty! I always love AK outfits!

Ok, I have stuff to do today. Someone call me if we get past page 240!
