Arminda is so beautiful in that top picture. What a pretty dress for such a pretty girl. And I love that picture of Brian and two of his best girls.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....
You would have laughed even harder if you had seen the outfit
!Congrats on the trip! We're going to be there at the same time!

With Brian:
That is GREAT!
These are not great pics of him. He was "in a hurry" like he is most days anymore. He has some of the prettiest blue eyes. Worst thing about blue eyes is the "red eye" in pictures.
You know, he's handsome enough to pull of that look! I didn't realize you had lost a sister.I am saying a prayer for Becca
I am so sorry. Thank you so much for sharing her picture with us. I hope George is okay!
How adorable!!! So is the dress!! I love the sparkly fabric.
I love it, Linnette!!!!
I love it!! Isn't it great how confident they are in their fashion sense at that age?! She is such a little doll!
Doesn't it remind you of on Friends when Joey had the turkey on his head?! hahaha
I saved this pic for a future project. thanks for posting it.
I love her smile in this picture:
The shirt looks great!! I goofed up 2 of my iron-ons for our last trip, so I understand your pain. Luckily, it wasn't terribly bad and I wore them anyway.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:
Wow, your kids are just stunning!!
Wow, I love the sheets! You got great deals on them, too!
I just wanted to tell you that your Stitch applique looked wonderful!!
Yeah, I want to see a picture of Corey hunting, too. That would be cool!
I'm glad he's home! Hopefully he stays healthy now!
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 !!
Oh no! That is just too funny!

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!

Wendy was so sweet to send me some of the Nursery Rhymes fabric in a fabric swap. For the first couple of days after it arrived, DD didn't even notice it sitting on the coffee table. But yesterday she found it and she has been carrying it around, and playing peek-a-boo.
Thanks Wendy - not only will it make a great outfit for DD, but works as a great toy!!
ETA: Sorry about the first picture - it's correct in Photobucket, but sideways here!

) I just decided to keep the last ones, which I still don't like ..
the dress is finished but I still have to do the top stitch but I have the feeling that I will disassemble the dress and try one more time tomorrow
I will try once again tomorrow
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!
, and welcome to the show!
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.

Linnette, would you stop fussing over that dress
.
I think that I lost my mojo imagine when I start with the wedding dress!!! Just don't take my calls!!!!!! 
Oh thank you so much! I would love to see yours.
So I finished the dress let me know what you think!
I know you will be stressing when you start the wedding dress. That is to be expected. I will be here to help you with whatever I canI know, I know I must be driving you crazy!!!!!!!!!!!
Very cute dress. Your DD is going to look so cute.So I finished the dress let me know what you think!
He has a hernia and his bowel might be obstructed so they kept him for observation and more tests this am. It is possible they will do surgery today but if not it looks like he will need it anyway s part of me just wants to get it over. I fear he will have another blockage ad if it isn't obstructed this time it will e next time. Since he only has a small intestine he can't afford to loose any more., So I just wanted to pop in ad let you know what was going on. I am going to down some coffee ad head to the hospital. My girlfriend kept the kids last night and will take them today. Nikki and her dd have a party and their last cheer game for the season. So I am sad I will miss it. I actually feel very guilty I am missing it but I keep telling myself I coached football cheer I went to every bball game cheer and a coaching next football season again so one game isn't bad. I guess. When I left the kids last night Kyle was freaking out he wanted me I felt so bad but I knew I had to go to George but the others guilt never ends does it.
