It might seem like I have completely forgotten about this, but I haven't. I've just been pretty busy. I have finally finished editing my PP+ pictures, so I'll be ordering that today. I was originally planning to put borders on all of the pictures. I gave up on that idea because the PP site...

We are back home, and the trip was good. I think I'm just going to do a mini-TR at the end of this PTR, mainly because I was a horrible note taker and picture taker.

Thanks for the compliments on the outfits. I have really enjoyed making them. I finished my bag tonight! I had a few mistakes, but I managed to get it done. I will try to post pictures tomorrow if I get a free moment away from getting ready to leave on Thursday.

First, I found my camera :) Yay! Second, I ended up changing my mind about what DD will wear to the Christmas party. She will now wear the same top that she wore two years ago. And I made a new pair of easy fit pants to go with it. I found the perfect fabric in my stash. The only problem is I...

Yay! Being paid in full is a great feeling.

Misplacing things is the story of my lIfe. Now I can't find my camera, and I need it tomorrow. The phone camera may have to suffice. But I MUST find the real one in the next 7 days!

Thanks so much for your comments about the outfits I have made for DD. After thinking about it, I kind of wish we were doing the party on the 1st even though that is supposed to be one of the more crowded nights. Then we could do full days at MK on the 3rd and 5th, essentially giving us 2.5...

I didn't get any sewing done last night, but I did get a BOG lunch FP+ :) It took a little while to get an acceptable time (didn't want early because of our late breakfast). Now that I have that FP+, I have finished working out our touring plan for our full MK day. I currently have Enchanted...

I think last night was a first for me. I got DD down for bed shortly before 8, and amazingly I didn't have to make 50 trips upstairs for her various stall tactics. Once I got downstairs I did my normal evening computer tasks, then I got busy with my next sewing project - a pooh reversible...

Good job! You should look into Scientific Seamstress/Sis Boom patterns. They have several mother/daughter patterns. And they are very easy to follow. Edited to add link: http://scientificseamstress.blogspot.com/2013/06/who-likes-to-coordinate.html?m=1

So last night I spent my time finishing up DD's AK dress. I am debating whether or not I'll take in the bodice some since there is so much room. And I found my PP+ mail this morning! For some reason, I was looking for an envelope instead of a package. I noticed a package on the end table...

I only lined the bodice. I figure DD can wear a slip or something under the skirt. I did NOT like sewing the eyelet. It was too thin, plus the stitching on it interfered with gathering. I don't think I'll use it much in the future!

This weekend I did some major sewing. First I made a Mary Poppins inspired dress for DD to wear to our breakfast at 1900PF. I took a photo of her wearing it this morning, even though it isn't quite complete. It currently has a red ribbon pinned on where the red sash will be just to give an...

I have been procrastinating on this for a long time. I did the bodice, but the scalopped skirt kind of scared me so it sat on my sewing table. I used the instructions from the scallopini pattern by Scientific Seamstress, and it was actually pretty easy. It did take a while to sew, but it...

On Saturday and Sunday, I worked on DD's Sofia inspired dress. Right now I'm trying to decide how much more I want to do with it. I am definitely planning to let out the hem for the underskirt a little and then add a puple ribbon around it. I may add a couple of pearl string to the bodice...

Oh, I forgot. We have one for the 5pm Nemo show. Sent from my SCH-I535 using DISBoards

Just a quick sewing update. First, here is a photo of DD in her ghost top. And tonight I finished the long Sleeping Beauty skort and the Christmas lights skort. This is a picture of the lights one that DD will wear on the sleigh ride. Now I just need to figure out what I'm going to do for a...

I've been meaning to comment about Zulily, but I keep forgetting. I do order from them semi-regularly, but only for items that I don't mind waiting a month to receive. I usually forget that I placed an order with them by the time I receive it. I can definitely understand being frustrated with...

I was trying to go slowly and removing each pin before I got to the blade. I was so irritated when I hit that one, especially since I was just beginning to get the hang of using the serger. I haven't looked at it yet to see if maybe I can fix it myself. I'm just afraid the repairs will be as...

Today I have spent some time mapping out our day at Animal Kingdom. One of my favorite memories from our last trip was at AK. We actually didn't do a whole lot when we were there, but the day ended in a great way. I had originally planned a before park opening ADR for Tusker House, but I...
