Hey everyone, I've been lurking and I love all the new stuff! I'm nearing panic mode with all the stuff I need to do before we leave on our trip Saturday
My friend decided at the last minute that she wants some stuff for her kids too, so with my sister's kids, I'm trying to make outfits for 9 children. Let's just say everyone's getting a little less than I had originally planned. I'm going to have to crank out 9 Mickey head tees today. I spent forevery embroidering Perla last night only to have Lily knock the plug out when I had about 2 steps left and now I can't get the embroidery machine to work so I'll have to work on that too. And my camera broke. It was taking fuzzy pictures, then the USB port wasn't working (the cable was fine) then somehow it dumped over 900 pictures from the memory card. They are GONE. I'm hoping I didn't lose too many. I usually upload them to the computer but I don't always get every photo. Oh well, can't think about it now. Fortunately I do have a backup camera even though it is the WORST camera for Disney. It has like a 5 second lag between photos so when you are taking character photos you can only get one. If I try for two, I can see the characters getting impatient! I have also had the most miserable cold, but I'm finally starting to feel human again.
Just in time too! And today I get to take 2 kids with me to get the oil changed in my car!
I have some stuff to post, just no models. I did get Lily to model her Small World outfit though. I just got matchy bows from Jennwdw. She matched them from the photo. SO CUTE!
and yes, the paint is chipped on my baseboard. Luke was vaccuming the other day and ran into it and the corner piece popped out. Mike put it back in but the paint has not been fixed.

and Luke is Star of the Week at school this week so I had to put together a poster real quick last night. On top of everything else my CDS was NOT working at all (the first time I tried to use it) and I HATE IT! But my cricut did help out, I just had to use it the old fashioned way.
(not a good picture, I had no lighting last night.)
yet!!!) so thank you for your help! I am now wondering where you guys get all of these great fabrics from??? I went to my fabric store and only found a few/ not too great things. I am hoping to make some stuff in the coming weeks so I can post and get some opinons. I am a very basic sewer but I figured if I had some cute disney fabric anything would look good

I was house sitting for my parents when I was about 21. My mom had told me her washer was acting up and to only use it when I could stay with it to make sure it switched cycles from the filling cycle...you guessed it...Hey! I was 21! It had been a late night!
So, I needed clothes for the next night and I put them in the washer and went to sleep. I woke up somewhere around 8 am the next day to the sound of rain...in the basement! I ran to shut the washer off and went to the basement where there was 2-3 inches of water standing in the basement (1100 sp. ft. basement!)...my parents also live on a well! Yep...it lost presssure! It was a nightmare. I cleaned up the water...called thier neighbor to come work on the well. In the mean time...the hardwood floor right outside the laundry room started to buckle and the ceiling in the basement started to come down! I just sat there and cried!
I was able to get ti dried out and started the repair on the ceiling (I'm handy like that!) and pulled the flooring up in the hallway. My parents came home 2 days later...it was not pretty! They laugh about it now, but not so much then!
Some of you may remember that we were putting a large addition on, we ripped apart half our house and ran into a lot of problems. Anyway, we have been living in a ridiculously small space with 7 people, barely surviving. lol. We will not be continuing on with the addition, and today we put an offer in on another house. It is bank-owned, so they are accepting the best offer. It would save us so much stress and heartache if we get this house, so please pray that everything goes well!
I hope everything works out.
So I am thinking ok kid sure just be quiet Bruce is on! 
So after I did that, I ironed on about an inch of interfacing to the bottom of the bodice and that made it much easier to sew! Hope my mistakes help someone.

Have you read Heather's applique tutorial? There is a link in the bookmarks and in the first post. 
sew I can make matchy outfits for Little and the babe!!! But if all else fails I'll at least get to make some cute customs for my girlfriends baby girl, she is due the day before me.
