Wow! Lori! Where did you get that fab new Alien fabric?

Just kidding! I've got a little of that fabric in my stash! I think it has been there for 5 years!

I am really being lazy and wasn't going to comment or quote on anything, but couldn't resist since Lori's was last.

There were some fabulous things posted! And from newbie's! Welcome! Glad to see you got the pictures posted!

Glorib, the feliz is adorable! I really love the fabric!

Okay, my tired and laziness is taking over. I might even hit he sack shortly!

I realized that I never posted these over here...no where near as nice as the creations on here lately but hey...I sewed for a change!

Jham taught me how to make pillowcase dresses/tops. Here are the directions she gave me:

Take the 44" width of the fabric (no matter what size dress/top), cut what length you want minus about 4" for the contrasting fabric on the bottom (if you are using contrasting fabric) and plus about 3 1/4" for the casing on the top. Cut the contrasting fabric 8 1/2" then fold it over wrong sides together and then stitch it onto the bottom of the main fabric and topstitch. Then sew the side seam. Fold over the casing (iron it down), stitch about 1" from the fold and then stitch another row for the elastic casing. (Use 3/4 inch non roll elastic) The straps are 4 pieces of ribbon 18" long. The buttons are purely decoration.

I love everything that everyone has shared today! I finished 2 more outfits for our trip in March. I just have to get my model to put them on.

Jessica, thanks for the encouragement on LE Rocket. I did it. I put it on the front of a jumper for Ainsley and will do it again for my youngest when I get to his stuff. We are having lunch with June and Leo during our trip.

Are there anymore suggestions for places to get pettiskirts somewhat economically???

Hopefully I will have pictures to share soon!

LOVE the Toystory outfit!!! Soooo cute!!!! You always do such an awesome job!!

I've been wondering about petti's too - Hannah (2) loves to be "pretty" - i gave her a dress for Christmas that had velvet at the top and pink satin and then the tullish stuff on the bottom, and she wants to wear "pretty" every day!!! She is the baby of 6 kids, and I think they are in for a handful with this one!!!! But how much do they usually cost? I think one for her upcoming birthday in June might be a winner!!

LOL! That would suggest that I actually have a plan! My 2yr old picked it out. I wanted the light pink one. Not a soul around here wears anything like this. I just thought it would be fun for her and thought maaaaybe I could have her wear it under some future dress. People here dress their kids so casual, Megan is the only one who wears bows in her hair- all the other little girls want to look at her bows and touch them. I get so much joy out of dressing her up and she says "Megan looks pretty!"
Theres nothing but snow and more snow on the way around here, so maybe in the spring I will have something planned.

I blame this board, i would have never seen one of these if not for you all!

as for me, I have no voice, sore throat, no fever thank goodness! but my asthma is acting up and poor Megan still has a fever. She doesnt feel as hot, but still a little walking heater. First day of her life she wore her jammies all day. She asked me to get her dressed several times, but I knew DH wouldnt want me to.

Well we are planning 8 days and last year Jenna had two outfits per day and yes she changed clothes twice a day. So I have a ton of sewing to get done in addition to her summer dresses and outfits.

as for me, I have no voice, sore throat, no fever thank goodness! but my asthma is acting up and poor Megan still has a fever. She doesnt feel as hot, but still a little walking heater.

I sure hope that you and Megan start feeling better super quick.

WOW, I've been lazy and haven't been on. I had 10 pgs to catch up!

Awesome work everyone. I need to post a few pics of the customs my mom got finished! Maybe in a couple of days. It could be Tuesday, depends ont he weather. We may get ICED in. (We never get SNOW! ) I'm searching online for some white pettis now. I hate having to buy for 2 girls, it gets exspensive! Does anyone have problems storing the pettis? They are all tossed in the floor of DD's4 closet. Don't know what to do with them. Now I must see if I can get a good price on 2 white. It seems hard to find just white, or is it me! I won't spend $75 on a petti! I have to buy 2 remeber!

Well hope everyone is feeling better and starts to feel better. Can you believe it, I made a week without a kid sick!!!!!

I'm sure it won't last to long! As long as we are healthy for DISNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last Feb we were at the Celebration hospital for (I can't remember how long!

Look forward to more great customs!!!
