Hello everyone! I am a huge time lurker here and finally decided to join in the crafy fun.
Although I don't sew, I DO make hairbows. Here are some Minnie ones I made!
I love looking at all of your lovely creations ladies. Keep up the good work!
Great idea!! Looks awesome!!
So I cut all the fabric out for Georiga's St. Pattys day dress...but I can't decided which to do.. with or without the rainbow fabric every third fabric.
I used the same A. Henry Leprechaun fabric for my daughter's St. Patricks Day outfit. Hopefully I can get her to try it on tonight and take some pics of the hammy!
LISAZOE- THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!! That is exactly what I was looking for and for about 1/2 price!!! Thanks again! I knew I could count on the dis-ladies!
-Yes, Jenna did get her happy mail and she said that she loves the bow and she kept the picture from Zofia.
And of course a bow to match.
Kristine-I have enough of that Pooh fabric to make another one.
Oh it is easy. I think that you could do it. There aren't that many pieces to the dress.
Nope. You are supposed to put ribbon, but I put snaps instead. That way it will stay closed better. The button on Jenna's dress is to cover up the snap.Wow Hoo
Wait...does it require zippers or buttons???
I made this dress for Jenna last night. She is going to wear it on Monday for Spring picture day at school.
.
What??? Where??? Did I miss it?? Did you put a link or something?
Hey, this is a good idea...an advertisement for our tr
Very cute fabric...was the zipper hard? It looks great! We love the applique too!Abby found this baseball fleece in the remnants section. I used a Burda pattern to make this hoodie for her.
This is awsome! Did you use the Tink pillowcase for this one? Did you satin stitch around the face? Whatever you did it came out wonderfully!Thank you guys for all your positive feed back I made another shirt today for my niece, still have to make DD a matching one! I feel good like I'm on a roll! I did not have a pattern for this just an idea from other tops I have seen. I can't wait to see it on her.
I can't believe these were your first outfits....they are adorable. Your DD is just so cute and precious!I can post photos now!! YAY!
Ok, so I've been making things with patterns from youcanmakethis.com - the faith top and the boutique bottoms. I've NEVER sewn anything before! Well, maybe a pillow or something but never used a pattern and made clothing.
These are all for my 2 year old. Two are for our trip in two weeks - she needed a St. Patrick's day outfit and then I also am making a pooh outfit for our character breakfast at Crystal Palace. The other one is something just for pretty
Here is the St. Patrick's Day one:
Here is the Pooh one, which I still need to come up with some sort of applique on the top. Any ideas? Not much custom pooh stuff out there for me to CASE!
And here is the last one. A full outfit! She was NOT in the mood to cooperate with me to do photos, so this is the best I could do. I apologize for the crappy photos, you know 2 year olds. LOL
Front:
Back:
YAY!! I have this pattern down pat. I'm kind of afraid to move on to something else.
Edit: Why are my photos showing up as links? I have them in the image tags correctly?? That's odd.
Welcome...I may pm you closer to our trip?! I am terrible at bows and forget the korker thingy...I would rather have someone else do it!Hello everyone! I am a huge time lurker here and finally decided to join in the crafy fun.

I love the whole ensemble....great fabrics and you dd looks so happy and cute! Tell Lucas I love his lego creation!!! Has he ever been to DTD?Here's Miss Sophia in her very first Simply Sweet:
I used the stand on the table trick to get her to stand still. And also because the kids got chip crumbs all over while I was sewing. I better get to vacuuming!
And here is Lucas with his newest Lego creation:
It's a Dragon Fly!
Here is it! The St. Patricks Day outfit! My first 4 piece set! YAY! )
HI GUYS!!!
SORRY IM YELLING THIS BUT DANIEL FINISHED RADIATION TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We still have almost a year of chemo to go, but hey, he did so well - he stayed healthy and fairly energetic!! His therapists tell me how he is a hard worker during his sessions and tries sooo hard!!! We are now prepared for the next step which could mean hospitalizations every month, but we Keep Moving Forward and by God's Grace all will turn out well!!!
I also got word today from a local Philadelphia Theater (the Arden Theater) that they are donating a birthday package to be auctioned at Daniel's benefit!! How cool is that!!!!!!!! Thanks again to the others who will be donating outfits/purses for the benefit - I think a well rounded presentation will help - how many sports signed items does anyone really need!!! lol!!!!
Im just so happy tonight!!!
Now to go back and read the thread..........
I Just love the fabric and I think it came out so green and Irish!! (My husband's side has the Irish....so my husband demands green on St. Patricks Day
Pose 1:
My daughter has some chapped lips that she keeps sucking on, so, that explains the huge red lips!
Another pose for you:
Pose 3:
Close-up:
and trust me, there was many more poses to choose from!
And finally, my first attempt at a round neck that went horribly wrong.....Somehow I think I put the front neck piece on the back and the back on the front!!! I was very fed up by the end of it that I just left it. Needless to say, I did not enjoy that one too much. I don't know, I think the round thing just isn't for me....
I edited these on my computer, but they aren't showing up as edited in Photobucket so I'm sorry if they are too big.

Thanks, the fabric is really fun. I should get more and make a blanket to sit under at the games when it is cold! The zipper isn't too hard. I don't follow the directions that came with the zipper, I just pin it in place and stitch around it. I do wish I had used a blue zipper though. The little applique was pretty time consuming. She had 13 thread changes!Hey, this is a good idea...an advertisement for our tr

And she was the first multi colored embroidery I have ever stitched out. I made a practice one first. Tomorrow I am going to make myself a shirt!Congratulations to Daniel! Praying for continued recovery for Daniel!HI GUYS!!!

You got it!!! She is my Zoe Zoe puppy Fuzz (that is what my DN and DN's call her) also known as Zoester the Toaster!! Cause she is warm....here is my lap right now - quilt, laptop, Zoey!!!!!!
You did a great job on that dress! It is adorable. I really like how you centered the princess on the front and back of the bodice. Lucas did a great job on the Legos too!Here's Miss Sophia in her very first Simply Sweet:

I love the bows! Where did you find the Mickey/Minnie Head ribbon? I would love some of that to make myself a key fob. My DD refuses to wear bows! I made her wear one today and she tried to take it out. Her teacher told her to put it back in because she looked so cute. Then she said you can you look cute for just one day!Hello everyone!

What Pattern is this? I love it. Do you think it is to casual to make a First Communion dress using it? I want to make Abby's dress but I haven't found a pattern I love. I am considering a McCall's pattern and they are on sale on Friday at JoAnn's so I may pick it up. I just don't like the dresses in the stores online, they look like bridal gowns! I want my little girl to look like a little girl for a bit longer. She is only 8!I made this dress for Jenna last night. She is going to wear it on Monday for Spring picture day at school.
And of course a bow to match.
