[PrincessKell]

These are for Teresa Joy and so my Jackson dosen't think I have forgotten him. They like to hunt...sorry if too much hunting pics, it's what I could find

Yes, his eyes really are this blue!!

When they hunt, this is what they see...pretty amazing stuff!

HEY! I have that same jacket. hahaha I used to hunt back in the pre Georgia days. I have TONS of those beautiful pictures. Something special out there other than just hunting that many people don't see when you are up before the sunrise and out in nature like that. So beautiful!

And gotta love them blue eyed babies!

I saw a full grown woman dressed in an outfit shockingly similar to this one yesterday, complete with black tights with embelishment up the sides. I wonder if her father dressed her ?

Oh dear GOD! I laughed so hard at this comment!

I am young enough to say (although I don't know if a mom wants to hear it this way) that your son is a hottie. And with the redeye - I have really large hazel eyes and because of the size I always have redeye!!

You can say it...but he's only 16...and my babby...so look but don't touch

LOL!! Only he could make that suit look good. What was the shamock green coat for?

AG is getting so big! Her park outfit is hilarious! Emily has come up with some interesting outfits too.

The shamrock green was for the sports awards banquet. ( 5 Varsity letters down, 7 more to go ) His friends say that he lost "the contest" because he already has worn funky sportcoats and needs to come up with something more origional now. SOOOO he wants madras plaid pants You know, can't be accused of being "un origional"!!


She sure is getting big. Her looks are changing, and she acts like a "big girl" most of the time now. PLUS she has an awesome style

I just finished Nik's version of the skirt I made my niece. My niece's went together easy but Nik's gave me so much trouble! UGH Oh well I think it came out cute though and would defiantly make it again but just not in denim and 2 at a time!

Get ready for too many Nikki's! She was doing her best supermodel poses and actually got mad when I stopped taking pictures!

Ok next up I need to make a hat for my nephew! My 1st bucket hat!

This skirt looks great!

So I thought about what to do for the ohana breakfast and this is what I am working on! this is my second applique I am kinda proud of myself! Its not great but its not bad! let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions!

I think it's looking great!

I did get his Sea World shirt done though. I hope it's ok to post it here:

OK--I don't know why it still shows up as sideways, I just give up! I need a nap. Now it shows up the right way, but who knows it may be upside down in a few minutes the way my day is going!

I think this turned out great.

Awww another handsome boy!

I hope somebody can help me. I am working on my FIRST CarlaC Raglan top using KNIT for the FIRST time. I am attempting a Dr. Seuss outfit for my dd but I am having trouble with knit.

My stitches are "wonky" in areas??? You can kinda see it in this picture, it's a pic from my cell so not so great. The second pic shows my tension dial - I have no idea how to do this??? What setting should I have it on?

Can anyone help me????

(Oh and the cool thing is the acqua blue I used from another shirt and I cut it out on the bottom so as to utilize the already existing hem...Hahahaha...a total cheater here...hahahaa)

(wow just noticed how dusty the top of my machine is....lol)

I can't help you with your stitches, but I have the same sewing machine!

lol...it's a good little sewing machine I just don't know what I am doing wrong! Hopefully someone can help me.

 

[LouiesMama]

I'm pretty sure it just the needle. It needs to be a ball point or a universal. The regular needles for some reason don't catch the thread properly, so stitches are skipped. Love the fabrics!!!

Hi all....busy week and I am pretty tired. I went shopping with my DD10 to buy supplies for her school project. There is a "Ross" (discount clothing kind of store) next to Michaels, so I went in for a sec to see if they had any old board games. Well, they didn't but they did have this:

I couldn't believe it cause I never find cool stuff. Better yet, the full size Hungry Caterpillar sheet set was $6.99 and the two Mickey toddler sheets were $2.99 each. I am going to use them for my DD4's outfit for HS. Unfortunately, the VHC sheets aren't as nice as the real quilting fabric (which runs around $8/yd)...but I figure I can make a fun dress with it.

Other good news, my friend had a baby on Thursday and I am going to make her beautiful new DD a "taggy quilt". I'll show you it when I am done!!!


Heather - hope all is well!

Love all the stuff posted this week!

Love those cool fabrics and I can't wait to see the finished Dr. Seuss outfit!!!

Linnette - cute dress and I love the ruffles.

Love the Stich applique....awesome job!

Camping G - You have such a beautiful family.....don't you just love Maryland? I grew up there and really miss it!!! Gorgeous sunset too!

Sorry if I missed anyone....I gotta get going now....love you all!!!

 

[tinashaver]

I love it! Stitch turned out great and the red fabric is beautiful. Can you share your image of Stitch that you used?

I want to say thank you for all the great comments! I finished the dress last night I just need to hem it and I will post pics! By the way here is the pic I used to save me some hard ship I gave him a closed smile!

 

[mickeyjen]

Okay, well I am supposed to be SEWING, but instead I've just spent several hours catching up on this thread! I need to get moving... I have a birthday gift to finish by tomorrow (apron - I've already made the chef's hat to go with it).

Anyway, I just wanted to post quickly and say what beautiful creations you've all come up with this past week!

 

[teresajoy]

I am middle child too, so I feel your pain.
.

One baby picture, that's all they have of me, just one.... They SAY I was a beautiful baby, I'll just have to take their word for it!

I signed up for my first big give thinking I can at least make some iron-ons for the big brother...So I got some designs for him and go to do the shirts. This is my first time doing dark shirt iron-ons and only my 2nd time to do iron-ons period so I read through the directions again & start ironing on Darth Vader. Well, the force was not with me--I kept thinking it doesn't look like it's sticking to the shirt, so I pressed a little harder...You know, it might have worked better if I had peeled the backing off!!! So I have a nice Darth Vader picture melted into the paper!

I did get his Sea World shirt done though. I hope it's ok to post it here:

It looks great!!! And, we want you to post the pictures here, so that is absolutely fine!

Look at those eyes!!! I bet the girls are calling already, aren't they! How old is Jackson now? He is such a handsome boy! They all look a lot like you Maureen!

I don't think Brian has ever taken a picture of Corey when they are out hunting. Corey has taken a lot of pictures of things, but no pictures of people! I will have to tell them to do that next time they go!

I have to figure out where I just uploaded my pictures of Arminda's new dress and get them posted in a minute here...

 

[Tracie]

I wanted to thank everyone who said prayers for my FIL. He came home from the hospital today with 2 stents, new meds and a new diet (that he hate of course!) Sometimes he is a real pain in the hiney, but he is our pain and we love him.

I have been making iron ons for several years, and for Noah's give I thought I peeled the backing off of one of them but did not. So don't beat yourself up about it. It is frustrating when you can't figure out why it isn't sticking!

Ok I just had to post, because I have a new ticker !!!! DH has a convention to attend in September, so how could we possibly let him go anywhere near disney without us !!! So DD and I are going to tag along. We will stay with him for the three days of the convention and then move over to a Disney hotel. Not sure which one the budget will allow. DD really wants to stay at "the Pop" as she calls it. We have been staying AKL and WL the last few trips, so I am afraid I am not going to like POP but it will only be for 4 days, so I think we will probably try POP or Coronado. Anyway now that I am starting to sew more, I am excited to start to really make some customs for the trip. I think I just bought most of CarlaC's patterns today. Simply sweet, peasant top, stripwork jumper, easy fit pants, A-line, patchwork twirl , bucket hat and also ordered the wrap dress. This weekend though is devoted to finishing something for St. Patty's Day, and DD has multiple birthday parties to attend this weekend, one of which is Sunday morning at 9am at a inflatable jumping place !!

WEll because you asked......

The boys in Ben's class now have this new thing...they try to "out do" each other with silly sportcoats. Believe it or not, they are required to wear a sportcoat and tie to the dances and the sports awards. Anyway, Ben and I went to the local good will store and found this beauty. It is a wide whale cordory that is a dark yellow. It has wooden buttons. TONS of them. The tie is seriously hideous, and about 6-7 inches wide at the bottom. Anyway, this is what he wore. He was the big hit with all of his buddies. He said most of the male chaperones came up and said, "The sad thing is, I had a suit like that." I paid a whopping 12 dollars for it. His headmaster said to Ben, "Well that may be the best way anyone has pushed the dress code in a long long time. I can't argue with a 3 piece suit!"

Your son is very handsome and looks great in his jackets. My dad had a jacket like the corduroy but his had big leather (probably fake) patches on the elbows. My dad thought he was quite the trendsetter sometimes. LOL He loved to shop at Goodwill and other places to find tacky clothes to wear... mostly to embarrass his 4 daughters. I wish I had one jacket of his to send your son. It was a pattern of diamond shapes in 5 or 6 colors. It was actually kind of cool as I think back on it but we were mortified when he actually wore it when we were with him.

Tracie

Oh Tracie I'm so happy to hear it Make sure that you stay on him about the diet. After my dad was diagnosed with diabetes, he started drinking about 15 small coffees a day because it wasn't "as bad" as a couple of large ones

I made Arminda's Father Daughter dress last night. My Mom gave her pink dangling Mickey Head earrings, and she asked me to make her a dress to match them! So, this is what I came up with.

Ok, too many Arminda Sue's....

I love her smile in this picture:

In her dress coat:

And Lydia in her Giselle dress. I was trying to figure out how to put some sort of ruffle on it to make it longer, but I decided it really isn't a ruffle dress. So, now it is just a shorter dress than originally!

With Brian:

Lydia wanted me to post a picture of her in her dress coat. She has another dressoat I like better, it's a gorgeou plum color. But, the cat decided it was a good place for a nap, so it needs to be dehaired!

I'm pretty sure it just the needle. It needs to be a ball point or a universal. The regular needles for some reason don't catch the thread properly, so stitches are skipped. Love the fabrics!!!

Thank you Carla!!! I thought the needle I was using was a universal one but now that you mention it I think it is a regular needle. I will be going out tomorrow to buy some ball point needles!!!!! Thanks so much!!

Aww the girls look so adorable all dressed up for their dance with Daddy!!! So cute!

I have been lurking but love everything that has been posted! There has been so so much!

Beth, my machine will skip stitches if the needle gets sticky! It doesn't happen often but I have been known to grab the wrong heat n bond and I pay for it while sewing.

Teresa, the girls look gorgeous! I see Lydia has done what Dallas did! Grew out of everything! He doesn't have one pair of pants long enough except the ones I bought for next year and they fall off him!

I have been praying for everyone that has asked. I am so glad to hear that most outcomes have been good! My husband saw Daniel and his heart just broke for him. That dog was HUGE! That thing would scare me!

I finished my first simply sweet tonight! Thanks Carla! It turned out fabulous! Of course I expected it to!

I had something else to say and now I have no idea what it was! It was the reason I came to post!
