[Tnkrbelle565]

I wonder what happened to my ticker?

The site must be down...happens time to time. Mine is gone too!

 

[tanyaandallie]

Thanks for all the ideas!!! I've got a portion of the dress cut and sewn. Missing elastic right now so need to get it before I can put it all together! I'm going to try the sash thing!

Her dresses are listed at a steal of a price! I really should have bought one but I really want to make it for my dd.

I have decided on a cupcake "theme" if you will for my shower. I like cake and cupcakes are like baby cakes... I'm going to use a cupcake stamp on my invitations. I need some clever and not dorky (okay it'll be hard to NOT be dorky but LESS dorky at least ) wording to go along w/ it. I keep thinking of the saying there's a bun in the oven but I can't make it equate to cupcakes. Someone help me out!!!

...t.

To tie it in I'm going to have cupcakes instead of cake AND do cupcakes in a jar for party favors. very cool...I am very excited to make cupcakes in Ball jars, how FUN does that sound????

...t.

well ladies, i finally took the plunge and ordered the pattern. All in all it wasn't to bad...i followed trillium's sew along...not sure if i could have done it without her! I would change somethings but since i don't know exactly how lol i will leave them be. I wanted a brown ruffle on bottom of the underdress but ran out of fabric and the fabric store i bought it from is 2 hours away. I will probably add some sort of ribbon trim instead. Hope you like it. As soon as the little princess gets it (i will see her in a month) i will post pics of her in it. Until then...thanks for all your inspiration!!!!

i love this!!!!

I am terrible at wording, but I call both of my boys (esp. Cooper) babycakes all the time! it is one of my fave nick names for them.

I still have issues with the multi quote but THANK YOU for the compliments on the dress and for boosting my ego, again, what I do is kind of simple (compared to some of the wonderful creations you guys post ) ....so sometimes I am even embarrassed to post as I am always second guessing myself...I recently added outfits to my etsy store account and there I am praying no ones buys it kind of terrifies me, so figure that one out yes I know self esteem issues... in the back of my mind I could hear my mother "rip those seams!!! Do that again!!!

like I said before the princesses outfits are really simple and fast (less than 1 hr) I will post a photo tutorial soon , it is just that I am trying to finish with some sewing I committed myself too (feels like never ending) including the 2nd wedding dress that is just in pieces waiting to be put together (dreding the boning<<insert anxiety attack>> but I promised I will post the little tutorial soon

ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME AN EGO BOOST

PS: *Toadstool* happy birthday you are half my age!!!! I no longer celebrate mines ....O..H!!!! T..H..E..P..A..I..N

Linnette honey you kill me. I was just ranting yesterday that i soooo wanted to case the tink you posted a while back and I just didn't think I could do it. Today I showed you snow white to my husband and he says "I swear that woman is the reincarnation of some kind of brilliant seamstress for the Medici family or something" You are awesome honey!!

Hi to everyone who has said hello and welcomed me so warmly [; You dont want to see my try to do multi-quote!

Welcome! I can't wait to see the bag! I love that you have taken an interest in sewing. In 7th grade I took home ec and loved making an apron. No one around me really sewed though and I never knew I had an option to keep sewing! Isn't that silly! But so true! I just love to sew now.



Just regular cotton thread does the trick! Have you made ruffles before or do you know how to ruffle? There are several different methods but I use a dental floss method and just did a tutorial on how to do it.

http://magicalmemoriesbyjessica.blogspot.com/2009/04/ruffling-using-dental-floss.html

Well, Im trying to learn how to ruffle. My mum said to sew to rows of straight stitch and then pull one through.. but it kept snapping so I think i will try the dental floss method!
Cute pants in the tutorial [; I want to put ruffles on my capris might look a bit funny on a 13 year old thoguh!

I consider myself a little "cool" by moms standards but my idea of interesting fabrics might not be the same as yours can you be more specific, I have a little stash of fabric that I can mail to you to get you started with some projects just let me know

I consider you "cool" by mums standards aswell if you would be willing to send me fabric! I think my dad has a PO box in either LA or San Francisco.. Hes a pilot for Qantas (he hasnt lost his job yet.. touch wood)
I could even send you some kangaroo/koala fabric or something. lol.

Hi Hannah! Welcome! I love having new people on our thread from the other side of the world! And you're only 13 so that gives us a different perspective and sometimes we need a 13 year olds point of view (since we are all helplessly uncool in the eyes of 13 year olds ). Just the other day I was saying how much in I was with your country and New Zealand. Sydney was probably my favorite city, I just loved it! Anyway, welcome!

nooo! You guys are super-cool! Sydney is pretty cool [;

Because of my allergies to multi-quoting properly.. Ill just say that
The Snow white dress is adorable! sooo soooo awesome!
and so is everyone elses stuff.. but mum is kicking me off the computer to get ready to go out. lol.

I posted last night right before Stacey put those yummy cupcakes pics up (thank goodness or I would have been craving them all day!)...I get up Monday and go to work....come home and do the dance recitel practice and finally get on the computer at 7:30 pm to almost 10 PAGES!!!! I almost had a heart attack...I can't multiquote ten pages .... it would take me hours. I loved each and every pic posted! I am praying for all of you! And welcome to all of our new sewers! I do remember laughing at Adi's new comment in her siggy....about being crafty....that crackied me up! OK I am off to bed! Tomorrow is Tom's big give away on his blog....I wonder who will win? I miss you all! OH I remember what I wanted to tell you...my sewing machine person near me called me today to say that he will give me a very good deal on the embroidery machine especially if other people buy one with me!!!! So if anyone else is interested in the Babylock Ellure Plus...please pm me so I can give you the details. I think it retails around $1200. Thanks!

i love a cupcake theme... i am helping a friend do a tickled pink shower..we started with pinkalicious and have been running with it we are having cupcakes for dessert and possibly making the cupcakes from socks and washcloths have you seen them, roll a thin baby washcloth, tuck in a ribbed sock, place in a silicone cupcake liner and put a tiny flower on top too cute.

for invitation wording

just when we thought life couldnt get any sweeter
we were thrilled to find out that we were expecting a little cupcake

or

a little get together
will be such a treat
for a little cupcake
we cant wait to meet

i'll keep thinking on it
my dad is a printer so i am always doing invitations
i love the cupcake them

I was just thinking about Tom's giveaway,how exciting would it be to have a Tom creation in my house, I would be afraid for DD to wear it !!! Was Saturday not the most gorgeous day down by the beach. We were in Ocean City and the beach and boardwalk was packed. Didn't last though, right now it is thundering and pouring buckets. Ahhhhhhhh, such is Jersey in spring. I forgot to quote your epcot outfits, but WOW, how terrific are they. You seem to cranking out beautiful outfits, at this rate, each girl could have 5-6 customs per day for your trip.

Rainbow cupcakes
Sorry I wasn’t clear before. I just used a white cake mix and made it according to direction (2 boxes actually). Banilla is the way that Coops says Vanilla. Anyway, divide the cake mix into bowls. Use food coloring (lots of it) to color the batter. Then just blob it into the cupcake liners. Bake according to the box directions.

My friend also did a rainbow cake that was AMAZING. She use the little bits of batter and made very thin 8 inch rounds (purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red). She baked each layer separately. Then, she assembled them in rainbow order with white icing in between. It made a beautiful cake when it was cut. I will try to find a pic!

Thank You for the idea. Kristin's 3 year old Pre-k class is having an End of the Year party on May 20th so I think I will try them. She is allergic to chocolate so these will be cute and different than plan old cake.

You and me both, sister! Love the completed Tink, great job!

My daughter would love kangaroo fabric. My parents went to Australia a couple of years ago and brought her back a kangaroo book: it's one of her favorites!

OT.....Could you all please pray for my brother. He should find out tomorrow if he still has a job or not. He has been at his job for almost 33 years (July). He'll be 55 in June and would be eligible for some retirement but if they let him go this week then I'm not sure what will happen. I pray that he keeps his job, but if not then I pray that he will get some kind of retirement package. TIA

 

[mrsmiller]

like I told you in the email, the girls are just gorgeous,

but now I am a little embarrass hope the girls liked them and anytime Wendy, anytime

I was a person that took prayers lightly and even though I have my faith I never really thought it was a big deal but after going through some of the things that happened this year and seeing and witnessing in my own flesh the power of prayers , I do not take it light anymore...

will add your brother to my prayers
