[minnie2]

Sorry about the separate posts.

If you guys have it in your heart to say a prayer or keep positive thoughts today. for George. His company is doing lay offs today. He doesn't think he will be one of them but you never know.

On a positive note this past weekend Nikki had her basketball cheer party and the coaches gave us copies of some pictures they had taken. I really like the 2 of Nikki!

For those of you who have FB you can see the other ones with her 2 BFF's. I adore those pictures! The 3 of them where insuperable for football and basketball. I am partial but frankly I also think they where the 3 best cheerleaders on the squads!!!!!!

I haven't posted this in awhile, but was this the dress you were looking for....

So, since I am coming out of lurk mode, I thought I'd share what I have been up to. None of it is Disney though.

Easter dresses for my girls....

Earth Day...

I also have a few things currently in progress (Disney stuff). I can't wait to share them with ya'll.

I have been busy, and haven't been able to really even lurk much. However, I have liked everything I've seen. Ya'll have been doing some amazing work.

You'll were quite silly last night!

Teresa - I love that WALL E dress! I love that Lydia is hanging out in the tree with it on too! But I think the Minnie Wild might just be my favorite! I love seeing things again!

I really wanted to say the dress was a feliz too but it has been said before I figured it out!

I love the I am older then you comment! And twincesses (was that the word), super cute and creative.

I think for Disney on Ice you could go with all the characters like that!

 

[Tinka_Belle]

Absolutely adorable! Not the one I have in my memory, though. The one I have in my brain was EXACTLY like that in the back (except I can't remember if it had a bow that tied), but the front was an empire halter.

I'm starting to think I imagined it!

Here is one that I did. It has an empire waist. The bow does not tie. I don't think this is the one you saw though. I never got Jenna to model for me.

Maybe I can get her to model for me when she comes home.

Those are some really pretty pictures of Nikki. She really is a beautiful girl.

All are so great! Love the one with the ruffles so much!

I adore the ruffled butt dress! I need to convince Nikki to let me make her one! Her bff wants one but she is a 12 and I am not sure just yet how to up size it that much. I told Nikki this morning her friend might be getting one just because I LOVE that an older girl would still wear this!!!

She did redeem herself by asking me to make her a true Sleeping beauty dress rather then an older girl cool one....

Thank you about the picture. I loved how they came out.

It could be the Feliz that as been posted or the ruffled up. With te Ruffled up you can make it fuller if you want to. I wish I did when I made this one

I need to make one for my niece. She requested a Rainbow one. Any ideas how I am going to pull that one off! I saw some great rainbow fabric but I just can't see it in the dress.

Yes! It was that design but fuller in the skirt, and I dont' think quite so many ruffles in back (but it could be because it was more a "tea length" on the little girl wearing it!

As far as making a rainbow dress, maybe get a rainbow pastel beaded necklace and bracelet to go WITH the dress? My diva gets so excited about the accessories she'll forgive almost anything!

I'll say a prayer and go light a candle right now!

She looks beautiful, she takes a great picture!

You can make the skirt fuller. It is the ruffled up pattern from YCMT.com I bet you could even fudge the pattern to make it what ever length you want too.


With my niece there is NO getting away with getting around stuff like that! Before I went to visit her back in November for our Disney trip apparently I mentioned she would see Giraffe's with me. No clue if I said it or not but she said for weeks Aunt Marlo is going to take me to see Giraffes at WDW. Thankfully the 1st night we where there we head to Rainforest for dinner and BAM there is a HUGE Giraffe right out front! And she remembered and thanked me for taking her to see a Giraffe!

Needless to say if she wants a rainbow dress she wants a rainbow dress And Aunt Marlo has to figure out how to make a rainbow dress.

I'll say a prayer and go light a candle right now!

She looks beautiful, she takes a great picture!

Thank you.

the dress.
What if you made solid dress and did different color ruffles? each ruffle a different color.

I got this fabric at joann's and it runs about 4.99 a yard. But it normally goes onsale for 30 to 40%off. I hope I am helping.

Thanks. I was thinking about that. I found some bright rainbow fabric at WalMart the other day that might work too. I guess I am just not feeling it so it is hard for me to see it in my head. I told me cousin to take my niece to Walmart and look for fabric and tell me what it looks like or pick it up and I would pay her back...

I think that a white dress with red/orange/yellow/green/blue/violet ruffles would be FAB! You could even applique a rainbow on the bodice!

Wow, she is growing up so fast and just beautiful!

I agree white with the colors of the rinbow as ruffles. That leaves it open to applique just about anything on the front. Can't wait to seeit.

TERESA! I saw Arminda's twin yesterday! I kid you not, I was walking down the platform for the monorail and passed one of the doors and there she was! As a matter of fact, I grabbed my mom's arm and pulled her back because I thought, "HEY! There's Arminda! That means Teresa's here somewhere!" I was gonna say hey! When I stepped back, I realized that it couldn't be Arminda because she was wearing a store bought princess dress. The girl looked JUST LIKE Arminda! It was almost scary!

Isn't that weird when that happens? I must have a common face b/c people are always asking if they know me. I attribute it to the brown hair, brown eyes medium build thing. Nothing too abnormal or stand outish on me! But I totally understand. There is a little girl on Grace's soccer team named Olivia that looks like Leighanna. I swear I have almost called her that on several occasions accidentally. They say everyone has a twin somewhere! I guess that must be Arminda's!

Love the black and white one! So pretty! But the Earth Day one is fantastic! I kept thinking that I wanted to do an Earth Day outfit for my girls using the organic cotton fabrics that are now available but couldn't come up with an "earthy" idea for them. Love what you did!

Came up with an idea but someone else beat me to it!

the dress.

Great minds must think alike! I was thinking different colored ruffles in the back of the Feliz for the "rainbow" idea too!




TOADSTOOL!!!! I came up with an idea for your different characters outfit! Of course, now I want to do it for my girls for our trip too! Who knows if I'll get it done but I think I like the idea anyway! What about doing a patchwork skirt with the tonal stripe fabric (it comes in lots of colors and Joann's carries it) and the different polka dot fabrics in all different colors and on some of the patches use plain white fabric with different character appliques on it? Then for the shirt you could use the title of the show you are going to see (I was thinking for me to do the shirt with the saying The Magical World of Disney)? I am kind of working this out in my mind but right now that is what I have. It might be kind of "busy" but I think that is okay for Disney! Now I just need a new embroidery machine so I can accomplish all that I have in my head right now! And even then don't know if it will be possible!


As you all know I have been wanting a new machine and I'm hoping that since I've mentioned it LOTS to my DH that maybe I will be getting one for Mother's Day but I just talked to one of my friends who also sews (and also the person Darren would go to to find out what to buy for me) that he hasn't even called her to find out. We usually don't buy presents for each other but I was still hoping....... Oh well, who knows, he could still surprise me I guess.

That's kinda what I was thinking too, something along the lines of this:

I really like your idea to put the title on the shirt A LOT!

(sorry I hope you don't mind my barging in)

Flower girl shoes. This may be a crazy out there kinda idea but I'm looking at options. LOL DD is wearing a floor length black and white dress. Would it look silly if I got her a pair of white flip flops and wrapped them with ribbon and but a flower on the top? Would it be dressy enough or should I just shell out the $$ for dress shoes that she'll only wear once. LOL trying to be frugal. Dunno if it's gonna work

Like as in floor length and prob. no one will see her shoes? Of course it would be OK, I wore my very comfy slippers to the reception of my own wedding and no one knew the difference.
