I could only find it in a private auction on Etsy, that was the link Heather sent me to get me daydreaming about it!!! I'll have to go relook! I keep thinking about how I could maximize the impact of the fabric!
That is gorgeous!!! I want some now too!!Thanks to HEATHER! I have now become obsessed with finding this gorgeous fabric!!
It's Japanese, has anyone seen it?
and the co-op. They are all so yummy!

So around 5am she fluttered around Nik's room and just tossed is $2 and hoped she would find it. At 1st she didn't but once I told her I saw her fluttering around her room go back and check she must have been afraid she was going to wake you she found the toothfairies gift. Apparently the Toothfairy forgot to take the big honken tooth that she yanked out!My DD is 9 and I still make her a lot of stuff! I have made her CArlaC's peasant top, easy fit pants, simply sweet, flouncy skirt. To name a few. They are all so versatile and if you look at a lot of the stuff out there they are those same patterns!
Oh Tom that is beautiful!So this is what I have been up to today.
Did you know that YCMT is debuting another sister site called You Can Quilt This?
I signed up for the newsletter and downloaded this springtime runner.
This is probably the first quilted item that I have made, start to finish. It is very far from perfect, but from a distance it looks pretty good. I think I learned alot from this one as far as what not to do on my next project.
Those are GREAT!I actually sewed today for my May trip with DS. All 3 applique T's are cased.
I found out what I was doing wrong with the Heat n Bond light. It helps to read AND follow the directions! I was ironing it on with the iron too hot and it wasn't sticking.
Thanks to Aimee for the Mike's eye inspiration.
Thanks to Steph & Elisa for the Spaceship Earth idea. I used the silver lame I had used on DS's Martian costume.
Thanks to Jean for the Walt & Mickey! DS LOVES this one! He was talking when he walked in the room and saw it and couldn't help but scream AWESOME when he saw it.
Now I have to start on some bowling shirts and a button down blouse for me.
Those are all so pretty! The Minnie one is my fav!Welcome Back everyone!!!So far the only thing different is the two bars at the bottom....something about tags and another one. They weren't there before were they?
While the Dis was upgrading, I posted these on my blog but I thought I would post them here too! I have a bunch of outfits planned for our Nov trip. (cough *at least 24 *cough) These are completely cased. A huge thank youto all you dissers
out there for all the inspiration!
These are for Buzz and Toy Story:
(Brook is peeking thru the fence at the cute doggie in the yard behind us!)
This is for my oldest...for meeting Tink! I gotta make something for the littles:
These are for one of our MK days. We are going with a bunch of people so I am making the white minnie tees for all of the adults too:[/COLOR][/SIZE]
Hey there are my feet!
And unrelated, Happy Springfrom the little ones! (Big Sis was away all day!) She did make it back for homemade lasagna tonight though
Oh and Brook has new glasses with transition lenses! I don't know why I waited! They are the best!
Too cute!Very cute, and I love her pose. =D
SO pretty, that's a fantastic color combination, as well!
You've definitely been busy! =)
Wow, nice job! Love the Minnie outfits.
I made an apron for myself for a letter A theme playdate we had on Friday, so here it is:
Close up of the hand stitching (and Violet's foot):
And here it is on, next time I'd make it fuller (I could have sworn I was smiling, guess not!):
Everything is perfect!Hi Everyone!! Missed you all!! Glad we are back!! GREAT creations made while we were down!! Love the outfits, shirts, skirts, aprons etc that were created all so cool!!! Tom your space is awesome, and your table runner is too!!
Here is what i was working on the past few days. Made some outfits for our Saturday outing to the Arden Theater in Philly to see "A Year with Frog and Toad"....it was soooo cute!! If you are ever in the area, the Arden is just WONDERFUL!!! not a bad seat in the house! Even Hannah - 2 year old- sat on the edge of her seat!!!!
Tim's outfit
And the girls -
Then some flouncy outfits I finally finished - not too happy with the purple one - not sure how the fabric will wear...
YAY on the new camera!!!!!Oh, not so much sewing related but I am soo excited! I forgot to mention that I finally bought a new camera!!! It is a beautiful new Nikon! Now I will never have a bad pic again!! LOL!!! Photography is an old passion of mine and I am excited to begin again. Here is a couple that I have taken already and they are coming out great!

Another note: I forgot who directed us to the thefabricobsession.com forum, but thank you...I enjoy the coop!
They are also doing a swap of fabric "green" grocery bags......Any interest in that here? I would be willing to get is started get the tutorial, and keep track of the swappers....They have had some really cute ones!
Could be either one of these......or
The fabric obsession is using the gusseted one. But i have found others...Just looking for some interest.

It's not our Spring Break yet. We have to wait a couple more weeks.Hey its Spring Break....anyone wanna come out and play?
)
I finally got brave enough, but wanted to keep it simple.
1.)I was going to say pretty much the same thing!! I have all those saved too!1.)I am obsessed with beautiful kid's beds! You know what's sad? I have almost all of those pictures saved onto my computer already! I was coming here to post them!
2.)Awww....you went and made me all teary-eyed. I don't know what I was thinking, telling you guys you didn't need to come to the hospital!
I made an outfit for my cousin's little girl this weekend. She loves frogs and snakes and everything reptile, but likes to dress girly. She picked the froggy material at Joanns when we were all in Florida last week.
Her name is Amber, thus the 'A'. And BTW, that is my first every applique.
And of course I felt bad cause I had not offered to make anything for her DB, so I made him up a bowling shirt with the leftovers.
You could use a tight zig-zag stitch to "draw" the light saber without cutting out any fabric. I would suggest marking the shirt with a fabric pen and then following the line with your sewing machine.Okay, I need help....I have promised DS (3) a goofy shirt & DS (7) a Jedi Mickey shirt (they got tired of me making everything for DD
I have my applique pieces all cut out and everything is good but I have a question...I have only done outlines of pieces before...if I want to try to fill in an area that is wider than one stitch without cutting out fabric...like say for Mickey's lightsaber...can I do that on my sewing machine or am I going to have to fill that area by hand. Did I mention I am terrified of these projects. What if I get 90% done and then do something stupid to mess it up
Those are so cute! Great job on your first applique!! I love the teeny tiny bowling shirt!!I made an outfit for my cousin's little girl this weekend.

We have missed snowboarding for two Sunday's now and we can't stay awake all day yet. The dr says there is nothing they can do, just rest and stay hydrated.
I have booked our first ever trip to Disney!!! I am so excited....Maybe more than the birthday girl!

That coach bed from posh tots has been on my "when I win the lottery wish list" for years!
