Ok for those keeping track, guess how much sewing I have gotten done since my whine last night?
wait for it.....
ZIP ZERO NADA!!!!! Have not even chosen fabric yet
But with each new day there is hope. I have been up since 6am thanks to a fool running a leaf blower, "baby grump butt" is up and dressed and we are headed to the fabric store.
(NOT because I NEED fabric, but because they send me coupons!LOL)
I will look and see if they have the yellow dot- My 2 Angels. Did I see you are in FL?
And I blame Tom, I was all set to make a solid colored dress for Morgan (one color-what WAS I thinking?) but then I saw his dresses and now I need a print and I can't use ANY of the prints I have LOL.
Get with the program, Cindee! (you know I'm kidding, right?)And without further ado, The girls Easter ensembles.
This was my first time using the Vida, and it was so quick! I think I may be using this a lot. I think the thing I like the best about it, is how you can make it out of such a little amount of fabric.
Julia's dress
Zofia's dress
Speaking of the Vida dress, here is something that I made for a birthady present for this weekend. DH's military buddies kids party is this weekend so I made this for his DD and am making an army set for his DS. I love how it turned out and hope she likes it. SHe is 7 so I am not sure. Her mom said she is still into princesses and would love a custom. DD wants me to make her an Ariel one, so that on is in my HUGE to do pile.

I remember taking Jacob to get his blood drawn when he was little I was a nervous wreck on the inside! I somehow managed to keep strong for him but when we got home and he was napping, I lost it! I think I cried for a hald an hour. It is the most difficult thing to do, to see them in pain and afraid and not being able to do anything.I hope the results are good.
Holy smokes those dresses are beautiful! Great job!
My mother is bringing Megan's Easter dress with her when they come down tomorrow. I can't wait to see it!

He was trying to be like his sis.
Keep looking! I've got yellow and purple! They're the smaller dots, but they're dots.
I bet it was joanns. That's where I got mine. Our hancocks closed last year or the year before.

Thanks
you guys are gonna make me blush. thank you
Thanks!
I know it comes together so fast!
You have plenty of time! Get sewing!!!
Thank you!
i put it off for a long time, because I wasn't sure if I liked it. But then the Co-op that I am in did a farbenmix buy, and I got it then because it was cheap. lol.
The dress is cute but not as cute as the 2 of them hugging! I love brother sister moments like that!!!!!Today is Kirsten's Easter Egg hunt at her school, and I made her a skirt to go with the shirt that I got from Target after Easter last year.
Not the best picture, but here is one of ds and dd...
Welcome !Hi ladies, I've been lurking for a while, but I waited to post until I had something to share! I first discovered you in 2006 when we had our first trip. I designed a couple of outfits for my dds, but my mom sewed most of it, so I didn't learn a lot. I then left sewing behind until the next year (2007). I tried to make some drawstring bags w/o any directions on my own, but I messed up and they became pillowcases.I use one to hold diapers in the diaper bag, but the rest are unused right now. However, they are big enough for some travel size pillows and can be used as pillowcases.
Here are some photos of the outfits I designed in 2006.
This is our Minnie Mouse dress:
This is a Tink shirt and another view of Minnie:
Here you can see that the shoulder ribbons for Tink kept slipping down. I wanted it to look reminiscent of Tink's wings. I don't think my dd thought this outfit was too comfy either.
My recent project of this year was a pair of pajama pants. I used a Simplicity It's So Easy pattern. Ha! I really struggled with it. I could do another now easily, but the first time, yikes! I hate patterns, and I think I may follow all of you toward YCMT.
Here is dd showing that the pants have pockets.
I want to make a skirt or dress for my next dd. I need something really simple. What would you recommend on YCMT?
very cute! What pattern did you use for your older girls dress????Here are the girls' Easter dresses! I think that they turned out wonderfully! they might even be my favorite dresses to date! I just love the fabric!!!!!!
Ane here is Kaitlyn's ( she wasn't in the mood to model for me yet this morning)
Once again I just love sweet brother sister moments!Hi! I made it over without much problem...just late which is my norm lately!
So many great outfits...love all of the Easter stuff...I have the fabric to do Katie's tomorrow and ties for the boys to match.
We did get to go to the Easter egg hunt at the YMCA Tuesday night. It was Timmy's first (that he remembers). Timmy found a "golden egg" and so did Katie. Yep, that's right my very sensitive middle child did not! Oh NO! But, Katie is the best big sister ever. As soon as she got her prive she divided it up with Patrick.
This is Timmy hunting.
And Katie comforting Patrick.
gonna leave him a note on FB
