Thank you all for the prayers! The weather has finally passed over me. The kids are in bed!Now I can start planning my day tomorrow. I'm going to be checking out another school for DD4 for next yr. We had an unfortunate thing happen in her class. I"m not happy on how the situation was handled. So now it has me looking around! BUMMED, because I thought I had it all figured out!
Kim tat turned out so cute!!!Finished Katie's V-day outfit...she seems happy with it...okay...I am too!
Ok well. I think I might have to make a Dr. appt for Georgia soon. She keeps getting headaches almost daily. She is home from school today because she had one last night that lasted until she fell asleep at like 1am! So not only was I up trying to help her, I was super tired from not sleeping the night before so that was like 40 hours up straight! Gave her tylenol she got her Disney soft ice pack (the only one she will use) and cried herself to sleep in my arms...She is feeling better right now. I told her this morning that if she stayed home she couldn't play her DS and had to stay in bed all day to rest her body. And she said ok and went back to sleep. So I know she wasn't up to par or she would have never agreeed to her no DS.
I hate that I can't really do anything for her headaches So she is laying down right now, just had lunch and is designing skirts for me to make her. haha
How sweet!Ok I Just loaded pictures from the other night and I just had to share this picture with you all. Georgia loves her new DS she got for her birthday and I guess little Sky Boy does too. hehe
Thank you.
I was thinking of making my t-shirt pink with the pink Mickey flowers and having DH wear a lime green shirt to coordinate. He does not want the Mickey flowers, not sure why though.
Keep your fingers crossed for me, DH called me today at work and said that there is convention in Orlando Sept 16-18 that his boss wants him to go to. So of course DD and I would tag along, and make a week long trip out of it.Just have to save, save, save so we can go. Hubby wants to stay at the hotel of the convention (Shingle Creek?) looks nice on the website but if I go to disney, I want to stay in one of the onsite hotels. Oh well, we'll see if the convention goes through, but I sure would be happy to have a vacation ticker !!! Then I would have something to do with all my new fabric !!!
Oooo! Good Luck! What fun that would be
Ok, I really need to not surf the net... I have been looking at purse patterns online and I came across this tote.......
I think I love it
This is the description...
Roomy and totally cute tote bag pattern with 4 outside wall pockets and 2 roofed tower side pockets. This tote bag is big enough for a binder or some books, water bottle, umbrella, etc. or as a "royal" diaper bag. Finished size is 13" x 14".
I may have to buy the pattern, but after a buying patterns from YCMT I thought I had sworn off paper patterns

I noticed Carla updated her patterns on YCMT. Do you have to purchase the pattern again to get the updates?
Thanks for your imput everyone and I really love all the new stuff that's been posted lately. Especially the earth day Mickey head. So cute!
Welcome Carla's updated patterns are updated in your library. You will just need to redownload them and replace the one's that you have already downloaded.
glad it is over for you guys in OKlahoma, I tried calling my sister (she lives in Oklahoma city )but could not get thru, but I guess everything is OK...
I think you asked about the stroller bag
it is really simple and fast to make( i really do not have step by step tutorial pictures but hope the pictures I have can give you an idea...
take a piece of fabric ( for Noah I used 52" by 36" including seam allowence)
fold it in half -- measure the blanket againts your stroller and mark the stroller strap placement in the blanket --I use the biggest size buttonhole for my machine for the straps (2") but you can also do the buttonholes by hand
sew in the side zipper (used zipper by the yard for that length)
after you place zipper you sew the bottom seam...
finish the top with prefold quilt bind, add straps for each side and voila...a stoller bag... I've made them with baby quilts , baby blankets, flannels and cottons and you customize it to your baby size...
hope this helps

Thank you!
Where abouts in OKC? The north side got hit pretty good, not as bad as the one down south this evening. They had 3 deaths! It's not even tornado season for us!
Okay, you may remember the discussion: little one needs to do a report on a composer...she chose Clara Schumann. She looked like this:
My inspiration pattern was this:
And the finished product is this:
skirt, top, and "undersleeves"
complete with a bustle on the back:
It looks really big for her, but she will be wearing TWO full-length pettis underneath to give it the fullness it needs.
I had to decide if I wanted to spend $30.00 on fabric or $9.99 on twin size sheets at WalMart. I chose $9.99. Yes, this is made out of sheets. Also, the front of the blouse is velcro all the way down and the buttons are hot glued on. I really didn't want to make 14 buttonholes.
PoohnpigletCA hasn't seen it yet. I can't wait to have pictures of her dd in it!
For now, thank God, it's done!
