Kelly that is so pretty. You are really getting the hang of those stripwork skirts. Too cute. I love the colors. They really compliment Georgia.Well I finished it. Its not your normal "Cat in the Hat" look. But heck, I just thought, she can wear it in the fall too! haha double usage. Here it is.
I am going the 1st week in November and I have a few planned in my head but I haven't started anything... I told the kids this summer I would start them.How early do you all start planning or making outfits for trips to Disney? We aren't going until October (I know I'm probably WAY too early now, is that possible?), but I know how busy the end of summer/fall can be and I'm naturally a procrastinator.
I was wondering how far ahead it may be safe to start without fear of any MAJOR growth spurts. I'm thinking mainly dresses for the girls so I think I could always get away with something being a bit shorter...just add leggings or something?
Congratulations!
It doesn't show right? If it doesn't show it is probably ok. She tells you to zig zag the edges so the fabric doesn't fry in the was. I use my over casing foot /stitch and do every piece of the pattern then do it again to hold it together. It might be over board but oh well.
That is amazing! I love hearing stuff like that! Have a wonderful anniversary and I wish you many more fanny pack wearing feather boa loving yrs together! Don't forget the boa on your special night!!!Guess what everyone-

THANKS to everyone that wished us a happy day. I really love all you people here- you're all so thoughtful and kind.
So it is a walmart fabric! Same place that had my other fav Tink fabric! UGH my walmart doesn't sell material! Do you know how much it was? I found it on ebay and I am tempted to order it .I think it was me and yes I did buy it at Walmart
Is your other favorite Tink fabric the purple one? My Wal-mart has that one in stock too. I think that they were both $4.44 a yard.
The purple with Tink looking like she is back lit! I got 2 yards of that want i was in FL with my cousin. that is a good price! Let me see if i can get my cousin to check her Walmart we need to ship each other stuff any way but if hers doesn't have it I may be asking you a huge favor! Very rarely will fabric from Wal-Mart show up at Hancock's and Joann's.How did you know
Does fabric that walmart has ever end up at say Joanns or Hancock?
I might call Walmart head quarters and see if any locations near me have fabric that I didn't realize.
Here is my patchwork skirt. I took all of this time making sure the characters were placed perfectly in the center of each square. A lot of fabric gets wasted this way! As you can see, once it is gathered, you can't really see all of the characters well. I either needed to do bigger squares, or less, so they weren't gathered so much. Oh and DD hates the top. "It's white Mommy. It is not fancy enough."
I knew I had gone to far and Patrick came home to tell me he needed a Kimono and he had already told his teacher I would sew him one!
here is Jenna this morning on the way out the door for school. The bow in her hair is from Kelly. She has already worn it twice this week and she wore it several times last week. She really likes the bow. The jacket that she is wearing I got at Wal-Mart yesterday morning. It was marked down from $16 to $5. Jenna was really excited to get it yesterday.
I got the major hook up at Walmart the other day too! I had to go shopping for my beloved 
FIL's Birthday. I was able to get him 3 shirts, 1 sweater, 2 pairs of pants all for $2-$5 each! And I bought me a t-shirt for $1 and one for my cousin for $1!!! I love good deals!Glad to hear you and tiny bambino are doing well! Hope the bar went well, ugh, I remember DH taking it so many years ago and all the studying that came before.
Great job! And what a little red-headed cutie!
So here is Gillian's munchkin costume. We bought the shirt and the pants are of course, CarlaC's Easy Fit. The pageboy hat turned out cuter than I first thought. I think the flower helps. The director said to wear bright colors so this is what she chose:
Here are some pictures of Grace wearing the outfits I made her. I already posted the one of her wearing the dress Cindee made her. We had a great trip except Grace had a occasional cough the whole trip. She would cough and then throw up after she was perfectly fine. We had taken her to the doctor before we left and he said she had bronchitis and we didn't need to cancel the trip. I was worried when she would cough because she was in the hospital before Christmas with pneumonia. I had posted pictures of her here back then you might remember. When we came home I went straight back to the doctor with her and he did a test on her. I got the call yesterday afternoon that she has whooping cough.I am going to call Port Orleans Riverside in a little while to tell them to clean the room we were in and the crib very good. I would NEVER have gone had I known what she had. We were on the buses with other people and all. I am so upset. I mean between the coughing she was perfectly normal. I had NO clue. I pray that we didn't get anyone else sick. I am sorry for rambeling on but I know you all give good advice. If anyone has any I would appreciate it.
Well I guess I will show you my pictures of her outfits now.
Boutique bottoms and dress top
I was trying to figure a way to stretch a few more hours into my days and it is just NOT working. I have three outfits to finish right now, well one is done but two are only started one is about 1/4 and the other hardly cut out... but I needed a break, and then I sat down to attempt to catch up and 3 hours later I am finally here.
You guys all do such amazing work, I am always so inspired by everything I see here
Thought I'd share my weeks work with you too
Saturday/Sunday was an Elmo set, my 2nd attempt at applique, I think it turned out well. No pattern, just cut and sew, I seam to do so much better that way LOL.

Well I finished it. Its not your normal "Cat in the Hat" look. But heck, I just thought, she can wear it in the fall too! haha double usage. Here it is.
and once I get past that...anybody got ideas on how to get good deals for Vegas? I have checked Southwest...is that the best way to go? I have looked at other sites, but all the packages have you doing layovers....I'm just telling you...I want a non-stop flight...no taking off and landing mulitple times.
