Disboutiquers Part 13 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[t-beri]

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

Those are great!! Let me know if you have any other genius ideas I only have a few weeks to put this thing together

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

Done

Hey ladies & Tom! You guys have been chatty today! I've been away at the funeral of a colleague that I posted about last week. I'm finally home, and exhausted. I'm sorry if I've missed all kinds of stuff going on today, but I don't have the energy right now to read every single word - I've had to skim the last several pages. If for some reason I've missed something meant specifically for me, could someone PM me? Thanks!

I did notice quite a few cute things posted and loved them all!

*hugs* I'm sure everyone understands if you missed a comment, must have been a long and tiring day!

I just wrote out a long post and it said it went to the moderator's for approval. This has happened twice, is it because I put in too many pics? I'm not counting on it ever showing up. Oh well....

I'm way too lazy to go back and post all those pics right now but here's one I have to share. It's nothing to do with sewing, I just thought it was cute. Connor can't stand to be parted from his blanket, not even long enough to

wash it. He stood guard by the washer almost the entire time, lol!

Too cute! My dd is attached to this rather ugly baby doll that I'm afraid to wash because it was pretty cheap, and I'm afraid it will fall apart. . .

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.

OOOH cute idea! Maybe do the mini cupcakes? I saw a photo in a Wilton cake decorating book once where they decorated the cupcakes with babies in baskets, they were so cute.

Thanks to all for your help - here is the finished Tink outfit for Aubree - anyone want to make some bows to match it????? Hair thingies are not my forte' lol!!

Cute outfit!

Here are a few pictures of Hannah and Elizabeth wearing the LaVida and the Linette Feliz - thank you Linette!! You are such a special person!!

Lovely, all of them!

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

Of course! I will hope for the best for him. =)

I have a Wii fit and I love it! I don't use it nearly as often as I should, though. Teresa uncovered an astounding study on the Wii fit. Apparently, there was actually research conducted to find out that the Wii fit does not help you lose weight....if you don't use it! Yes, money well spent on that study.

Yep, a truly ASTONISHING discovery!!!

SOOO many gorgeou things posted in the last few days!!!! If it weren't so late I'd comment, but I'm exhausted!!! Just so you know I was oohing and ahhing all over the place!!! I always feel so bad when I don't comment individually though!

And, prayers going out to all that need them.

Ok, I'm off to bed!

 

[MouseTriper]

Continued prayers for your family!

Thank you!!!

Okay, so I haven't been able to keep up or catch up, because I have been working on my shop! Here is my latest set. I really love how this came out and wished we had a trip planned so she could wear it!

And because this is just a cute pic

I LOVE this....it is so cute!!!

I finished up a few things for my trip this weekend.

First I want to thank Linnette for posting the link to fabricsgalore.com I got the safari, palm tree, and zebra fabric from there. I thought the shipping was a bit high when I placed the order but the prices were VERY reasonable so overall it was still a good deal. Then the packing list had a hand written note that the shipping was too high so she credited me about 1/2 of it.

My friend Terry (we've been friends since 3rd grade-almost 40 years ) lives in Jacksonville and she comes down to WDW when we visit. She and her DD Halley (9) will stay with us in our AKL CL room Saturday night. We are all doing the Sunrise Safari on Sunday. I am so excited to do this! And stay at AKL-this is new for us!

I made this shirt a couple of weeks ago for DS Joe-I still haven't had a chance to go to JoAnns to see if I can find any buttons I like better than what I already have.

I made this for me to match:

I made this for Halley. I wasn't in love with it when I first finished it but now that the buttons are on I like it more.

I made this to match for Terry:

I made Joe this shirt for either our dinner at Narcoossee's or California Grill. I love this fabric! I bought more so I could make myself a blouse with it if I like the fit of the first one I make with a pattern I'm going to try. Carla needs to make adult patterns!!!!!!!

I made Joe & I t's to wear on the plane for check in at AKL.

So I only have 1 more weekend left before my trip. I'd like to make myself 2 blouses and I'd like to make my 2 DD's Lizzy & Emma shirts with this really cool circus fabric I bought at fabricsgalore for $2.99/yard. We are going to the circus on a mother/daughter girl scout event the night before my trip. PLUS I bought a new laptop computer so I want to install some software, I need to make sure all my photos are uploaded and backed up so I can reformat my memory cards and I need to PACK! OH and work is crazy busy!!! I think I'll be ready for a vacation! OH...and I need a hair cut.....

All amazing!!! You have been busy!!

ok que the violin music.........


My dear sweet DD tried on all the adorable summer Disney clothes I made her last year....... and they don't fit!!!!!!!!!

I am sooo bummed, doesn't she realize you simply cannot locate some of this fabric anymore-I can't lengthen these things!!!!!

I guess I can always call the dresses tops and add shorts right? LOL

Awww that is just not right...the "growing-way-to-fast" thing. Just think it could be worse!!!! - if you didn't know how to sew, you would have to buy all new ones!!! This way you can dream 'um up and make them for a fraction of the cost...hahahahahaha.

Oh and if you are ever looking for a "shorter" kid...I know this adorable little one...hahahahahahahahahahaha.

He is having surgery in the morning to repair a hernia. It's his 7th surgery in 3 years (most of them were related to his gastric bypass surgery.)

Thank you.

Awww I will be praying for your brother and that the surgery goes well.

Shannon, can you believe she outgrew MULAN? I am SOOOOOO not happy about that one. That thing was LONG. I will never match the dye lot on that burgandy.

I can see it now-my dd will be the one running around WDW with a strip of mismatched cloth at the bottom of each dress

Hey wait a minute, knowing Morgan she would LIKE that LOL

Shall we start calling her "Punky Brewster"??? Hahahahaha....JK

My models were more than uncooperative. They were terribly fussy and had attitude to spare! So the pics are over their clothes, without buttons, and with a side of sass.

First up, Cooper is have a doggie birthday party on Saturday. I will post more about it later. I am soooooo excited. I have so many fun things planned for the kids. I wish I was 4 and could enjoy all the fun stuff! So Cooper loves dogs, esp. biscuit his "dog" (that uses batteries) he got for christmas. He loves the biscuit books too. So here is his shirt.

To busy playing DS, to be bothered

Back view

I had regular brown buttons picked out, but Cooper spotted these "biscuit" buttons:

I have some shorts cut that I could whip up if I get the time. They are brown. I have a little bone (with the word biscuit embroidered on it) that I will applique- again, if I have the time. This week is going to be another doozy! I have Disney on Ice on Wednesday, then have to drop the kids off at their dad's that night. I have to drive 2 hrs so that i can go to this boot camp type place for team building. I am excited about the team building aspect, but not the outdoors stuff and it couldn't come at a worse time! On Friday, my parents will pick the kids up from school and be waiting at my house when I get home from boot camp (7or 8PM). The next day is Cooper's party- 36ish kids + parents and we are serving dinner!!! I am crazy.

more coming in next post.

Ohh I love his new puppy shirt. So cute. I hope he has a wonderful birthday!!!

 

[MouseTriper]

Last post- the disney on ice outfits that will be reused for our trip in September. Two outfits down, 40 more to go!!! I am going to try 2 or 3 outfits per day for 8 days for 2 kids- gotta get busy!!! I don't know if these will still fit then. They seem like they might be too short by then. UGH. I have yellow buttons that I will add hopefully tomorrow.

this pic pretty much sums it all up.

Your boys are so stinkin' cute!!!! I love the new shirts.....you did a fabulous job. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Mickey Mouse ones!!! I am still scared to try the bowling shirt one...though I want one bad for my DS. Hahaha...one of these days.

Yep.... they are addictive. I made my second pair of pants today, this time I tried to add a cuff. I think they came out okay, a little plain, but they went together okay.

Today was DH's first full day in Iraq and the distraction helped. I think I will try the simply sweet next, and hopefully I can start making a few things for our Disney trip in August. I bought a few customs for her, but I would love to make some myself. plus I have the embroidery machine to start playing with.

I think the pants turned out great!! Can't wait to see what else you make.

Hey, is anyone sewing for Aubree - a 4 year old for one of the big gives? I made her this tink round neck and would like to make shorts to match - her measurement around the hips I think says its 29" - do I really make a size 10 in the easyfit pants? or should I just buy a pair of size 7 (like her mom says she is) shorts to match? I made a 6/7 in the round neck....

HELP!!!!!!!!

I love this tink top...so cute!!

 

[MouseTriper]

I just lost all my multi quotes, I was going for the recordsfor the longest multi quotes post...: and lost each and every one!!!!:
prayers for all in need , and Beth I still continue to pray!!


I love all the outfits posted , I specially love twob4him outfits ,your little girls just melt my heart Sorry if this is too personal but I love that your princess name is Brooklyn , any special reason? Sorry if I am nosey, but I think is such a COOL name!!!!!

lovesdumbo: Carol (from fabricsgalore) is just a sweet, sweet person and I always get refunded for any extra shipping ( something with the calculator?) right away and the packages do not take more and 2 days , I like that if you are looking for some specific fabric you can email her and she does her best to find it for you!!!! PS: I do not get compensated to endorse her I just love to share with you all when you find a place that is always reliable..and great fabric selection too!!!!!

I am working on some outfits for 4 little princesses and this is a "snow white" theme sundress that I made today... I am a little in the fence because when I asked my husband what he thought ...his reply was "Looks like a dress" ...well duhhhhhhh, he is no help at all!!!!!
do you guys think it says snow white? I just wanted something simple, not to "costume" looking, in other words practical ...my insecurities (if you guys only knew how I drive Crystal insane!!!!)

I was a little lazy and decided to just cut the top piece without doing a paper pattern (big mistake!!!)after I sew the lining I thought the front looked a little too low so I decided to add the eyelet to give a little more coverage but now i do not know?!?!...I would hate to redo the top part again but please honest opinions needed should I leave it as is???????

vent!!!
My kids used to be my pride and joy, they were always honor roll students ...NOT anymore as they do not do their homework and their score dropped because of that , I am tired as I am constantly telling them : DO YOUR HOMEWORK! so today I spent the morning learning the STANKY LEGG dance, I told them if Monday (I have to see the teachers) I get a complain about homework, I will go to the front of the school and perform for the entire school the dance(they know I will do it!!!) while wearing a t shirt that says : I am Joseph (class ---) an Jonathan's (class----) mom... after few tears we have an agreement,we will see!!!!! The stuff you have to do as a parent sometimes!!!!


sorry about my vent but the only thing I ask of my boys is that they excel in school nothing else, and lately is a constant battle

Linnette

Linnette...first off, thank you for the prayers!! I love the new Snow White dress.....and you hand me laughing so hard. I can just picture you threatening your boys with embarrassment. You're right, the things parents will do. Hahahahaha......I am so behind ya, hope it works!! If not, please have someone videotape your new dance performance!!! You never know you might win something on "America's Funniest Videos"...hahahaha.

Linette, What is the Stanky Leg dance...I going to have to youtube it.<-----------So I youtubed the Stanky Legg dance....And I think if my mom threatened to come to school and do that...I would have my homework done through graduation by the next week......

 

[MouseTriper]

I tried to CASE you, but I'm not that good. And you do not drive me crazy. If you drove me crazy than after 4 hours on the phone with you and the call drops I would not call you back to finish the 7 hour phone call and then call you again the next day and talk for 4 hours. I am seriously gonna have to make you one of my 5 faves.

WOW....that is a lot of talking...hope you guys have good cell plans! Hahaha

Hi guys! I thought I would just introduce myself seeming as I lurk so much around here!
Im Hannah, I live in Sydney, Australia and Im 13. I dont exactly have much skill when it comes to sewing but Im learning [;
I obviously dont have children to sew for so I just sew costumes for myself, lol.
Well.. tonight Im going to make a start on this Finding Nemo handbag I promised my self I would start 5 months ago... So Ill talk to you all later [;

WELCOME!!!!! I can't wait to see everything you sew. I just have to say that I wish I was in Sydney, Australia right now. I was lucky enough to travel there once and I fell in LOVE with it there. Such a gorgeous place!!!

Finally something to share!
Here is a hat I made for Nikki. I also made one for her BFF's bday coming up.

This is the one for her BFF I ay teach myself to shirr today and add a small row of stitching to the back it seems HUGE! Nikki's is big but not crazy big. For her BFF I added a panel since like her mom said she has a big head. When she tried Nikki's on it fit but wasn't as full as I wanted it.

!

Awwww, I LOVE these hats....may I ask which pattern you used? I need to try and make some hats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MouseTriper]

He's out of surgery and HOME.

I didn't get a lot of information, but even though the surgeon has been telling him for months that his hernia was back, when they went it, it didn't appear to be the case. They did tack the mesh back down some more, but they think his pain is caused because a muscle in his abdomen stretched out so much from being so overweight. He was told that he will have to wear some kind of "binding" for the rest of his life, and has to go through pain management to get off the meds he's been on for pain--but that he will be in pain from it for the rest of his life??? Some of this doesn't make sense to me. He's in an HMO, so he's limited as to his doctor choices.

Awww I am glad her is out of surgery safely and back at home.

That is great. I hope things are progressing positively.

Thank you so much!!!

Double posting, but didn't want my news to get lost in my giganto multi-quote! We got a new car yesterday-a 2003 Subaru Outback, LL Bean edition that has all the fun but superfluous fancy stuff (like heated seats). Considering the car I'd been using had no cup holders, radio, or AC, this is going to feel like living it up in comparison, lol!

Yeah on the new car!!!

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 think this turned out adorable!! I love it. I love the colors you used in it.

I wish I had as much ambition as all of you! The dresses, shirts, skirts, shorts, pants, purses, hats...it is so much fun to see all of your creations.

A couple months back I had some questions about machine applique and Heather Sue helped me out a bit with answering my questions.
I haven't appliqued anything I'm ready to share yet, but I finished a twirl skirt last night and a nightgown yesterday afternoon.
I'm a little embarrassed because I started the twirl skirt last February.

I used a pattern from YCMT.com but I wanted it more twirly than the picture.After gathering it together last night and trying to attach
it to the waistband, I realized that the pattern was right and I was wrong. There are fourty strips attached to that little waistband. Next time I will follow the pattern closer and do the 32 strips they recommend.

We are going to WDW a couple weeks before Christmas and my goal is to make little J outfits for everyday we are there.
The big question is will I finish any of them?

Hope you don't mind me sharing little J in her twirl skirt.

(and here is little J trying to hug the nightgown I made for her...she didn't want to give it up for a picture )

Oh your little one sure is a cutie. I love the outfit, it turned out adorable.

I finished my first (and second and third) dress! Wow, I'm so excited; I know they're not that good, but my DD loves them, and I've definitely caught the bug (now to learn how to do zippers, and use the applique function...) I'm posting pics, but will probably get them wrong, so please tell me if there's something I need to do different. And I did the tags tutorial thing, but can't find the existing tags to add to my pics?
Anyway, here they are:
First, a minnie dot wrap dress; it has a hidden tab w/ butons under the front, and ties in the back. I made it with a simplicity pattern.

this is the side, it shows some of the front and back detail

and the front

Here's the second dress; I actually made 3 of these from the mock smock fabric; ariel, Tink and the princesses. I used different trims to give a little zing. I'll post the other two if you want to see them to see the different necklines for the straps and trims I used. But DD won't let me take any more pics today LOL

if anyone is looking at the fabric, this is how long it is on a kiddo who's 48 inches. It definitely gets her vote of approval.

Awww she sure does look like she loves them. You did a great job.

Hey ladies & Tom! You guys have been chatty today! I've been away at the funeral of a colleague that I posted about last week. I'm finally home, and exhausted. I'm sorry if I've missed all kinds of stuff going on today, but I don't have the energy right now to read every single word - I've had to skim the last several pages. If for some reason I've missed something meant specifically for me, could someone PM me? Thanks!

I did notice quite a few cute things posted and loved them all!

Sorry again about your friend. I hope you are doing alright, considering.

I just wrote out a long post and it said it went to the moderator's for approval. This has happened twice, is it because I put in too many pics? I'm not counting on it ever showing up. Oh well....

I'm way too lazy to go back and post all those pics right now but here's one I have to share. It's nothing to do with sewing, I just thought it was cute. Connor can't stand to be parted from his blanket, not even long enough to

wash it. He stood guard by the washer almost the entire time, lol!

Awwww how sweet is he!!!!

PS what is Kangaroo fabric...please tell me it does not come from the little roo itself


Linnette

This had me laughing out loud Linnette,

Here are a few pictures of Hannah and Elizabeth wearing the LaVida and the Linette Feliz - thank you Linette!! You are such a special person!!

OH MY GOODNESS how ADORABLE!!! The kids and the outfits!! I LOVE THEM.

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

Oh wow, I will say a prayer for your brother. I really hope he does not lose his job. Scary times for sure!

 

[PrincessKell]

She is all grins and no teeth!! hehehe Georgia lost her other top tooth today at school! She was so darn excited. She actually pulled this one out. She was so happy she didn't swallow it this time.

 

[PrincessLeighsDaddy]

So many great things posted lately! I am the WORST multi-quoter around. Just know that all prayers are noted!

She is all grins and no teeth!! hehehe Georgia lost her other top tooth today at school! She was so darn excited. She actually pulled this one out. She was so happy she didn't swallow it this time.

OH MY GOODNESS! How cute is she! Leighanna lost one tooth, and then it grew in and forced the other out. I wish she lost both of them together, the pictures are priceless!

Thanks for the comments on Leighanna's picture. I wasn't sure if I should be mad at her, or laugh when I saw her picture. I decided to laugh, and wrote a check out for the whole package!
That is her beloved puppy "Pink Spots". It looks like a pig in the photo at first glance, but it is a puppy.
She is so original with naming her stuffies. "Brownie", "Blackie", "Stripey", .....etc. You get the idea! I told her she should be glad we didn't name her that way, or her name would be "Wrinkly"!

I have seen it mentioned here a couple of times, but I thought I would mention it again. My give away is tomorrow! Lots of great comments so far on my Blog. Thank you all!

 

[disneylovinfamily]

I just found out that Roseanna's class is going to see jungle book---a theater production at york college in 2 weeks. I need to start coming up with custom ideas. I hope she doesn't have to wear her school shirt that day. Maybe I need to come up with a shirk just in case and then make a top so she wear it on our trip in september too.

 

[Haganfam5]

I think my suits might be last years model??? or maybe an early model? I got them from the gymboree - I got a 3 for hannah (who is a 2T/3T and an 8 for Elizabeth who is usually a 6x (51 lbs).....what do you think? AHHHHH - I already think I have to take the 5T swim suit I got for Tim back - it was the Tigger super sleuth one from the DIsney store - I looked at the tags today and it says like to 40some pounds, and tim is 50 lbs!!! I really want the kids to have coverage at the beach - it just starts the day off so much better when they dont whine about so much suntan lotion!! lol!! But I also dont want their backsides hanging out or their suit to fall down in the waves (we are at the beach most summer weekends)...thoughts???

Went to the Croc outlet today -got some cute stuff - but I really need to find black minnie janes for hannah in an 8/9 I think - I got her a 10/11 - cause thats what they had, but Im afraid they will be too big for her - she is a 9/10 of course - inbetween both sizes!!!!!! Anyone know how these run???

My son is about 54 pounds and he wears a 6/7 so that's probably what he would need. I think the rash guards are a great idea. My son has very sensitive skin so it is going to be so nice to just put the swim suit on him instead of tons of irritating sun block on his back and shoulders. I bought one for my him from Land's End online. They have been having some great sales and you can seach google.com for extra discount codes and free shipping. The girls sizes sound right on so hopefully you won't have a problem with those.

As far as the Crocs, I think you bought the right size! They run a size small so you should be correct. For example my d8 is a 2/3 shoe and she needed the 3/5 Crocs. Julia is a 8/9 shoe and she needed the 10/11 (they fit perfectly) and my son is a 13 shoe and he needed the 1/3 croc. Sounds like you are going to be fine!

my ticker is messed up too---maybe the site is having problems!

 

[minnie2]

I am missing some quotes! UGH!
That yellow ad brown dress SO cute! Same with the Ariel and minnie dot one! I know there where others sorry if I missed you!

How you want the back to look may affect how you put the front piece on.
She is only charging $16.99 for a size 3 dress if I read her listing correctly- thats a steal!

All of her prices seem SO cheap! I am not sure how she can do it for that price????

I just wrote out a long post and it said it went to the moderator's for approval. This has happened twice, is it because I put in too many pics? I'm not counting on it ever showing up. Oh well....

I'm way too lazy to go back and post all those pics right now but here's one I have to share. It's nothing to do with sewing, I just thought it was cute. Connor can't stand to be parted from his blanket, not even long enough to

wash it. He stood guard by the washer almost the entire time, lol!

That is so sweet! My ds is the same way. when our washer and Dryer was upstairs that is what he would do. Now that it is in the basement I have to sneak and wash it when he is at school. He tells me it doesn't feel right after it is washed. Oh well! LOL

Thanks to all for your help - here is the finished Tink outfit for Aubree - anyone want to make some bows to match it????? Hair thingies are not my forte' lol!!

So great! Where did you find that sparkle purple and pink??? That pick would look great with the zebra fabric I have and well so does every one! LOL

Here are a few pictures of Hannah and Elizabeth wearing the LaVida and the Linette Feliz - thank you Linette!! You are such a special person!!

The girls are so CTUE! Linnette did a stunning job as usual!

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

Of course!!!!

Awwww, I LOVE these hats....may I ask which pattern you used? I need to try and make some hats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks I used this one http://www.youcanmakethis.com/info/clothing-creation/How-to-Make-a-Newsboy-and-Cloche-Hat.htm
It is fairly easy the sizing is off but other then that very simple! My mom keep saying it is her Hannah Montana hat so I guess it is a good tween hat. I was afraid it would be too babyish....
I think I need to make a really little girly one for my niece

She is all grins and no teeth!! hehehe Georgia lost her other top tooth today at school! She was so darn excited. She actually pulled this one out. She was so happy she didn't swallow it this time.

Love the toothless mile! Kyle still hasn't lost one! he swears 4 are loose but I am not feeling it!

So many great things posted lately! I am the WORST multi-quoter around. Just know that all prayers are noted!

Leighanna names things like Kyle! He has Blankie and yellowie etc! If they had kids it would probably be baby ( oh wait Kyle has a monkey named that!) maybe girly or boyie!

I would love to enter your contest because your stuff is GREAT but it wouldn't let me register! So I will continue to enjoy all the great stuff you make from a far...

have to go get a filling today

Sorry about the filling I have to go for one on Thursday.

I had to get a new ticker, the mickeypath ones seem to have stopped working. You can't even get on their website.



I have to say I'm loving the new stuff everyone's been posting lately. I was away for the weekend and am just catching up. There is way too much great stuff to even try to do a multiquote

I guess I need to figure out a new ticker then.

I finished my first (and second and third) dress! Wow, I'm so excited; I know they're not that good, but my DD loves them, and I've definitely caught the bug (now to learn how to do zippers, and use the applique function...) I'm posting pics, but will probably get them wrong, so please tell me if there's something I need to do different. And I did the tags tutorial thing, but can't find the existing tags to add to my pics?
Anyway, here they are:
First, a minnie dot wrap dress; it has a hidden tab w/ butons under the front, and ties in the back. I made it with a simplicity pattern.

this is the side, it shows some of the front and back detail

and the front

Here's the second dress; I actually made 3 of these from the mock smock fabric; ariel, Tink and the princesses. I used different trims to give a little zing. I'll post the other two if you want to see them to see the different necklines for the straps and trims I used. But DD won't let me take any more pics today LOL

if anyone is looking at the fabric, this is how long it is on a kiddo who's 48 inches. It definitely gets her vote of approval.

Those turned out great! They definitely do not look like a first attempt--esp. with those trims. Great job!

Here are a few pictures of Hannah and Elizabeth wearing the LaVida and the Linette Feliz - thank you Linette!! You are such a special person!!

They're all beautiful!

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

She is all grins and no teeth!! hehehe Georgia lost her other top tooth today at school! She was so darn excited. She actually pulled this one out. She was so happy she didn't swallow it this time.

Love the toothless grin. That girl is so darn cute!



I lost some quotes, but thanks for all the prayers for my brother! I really do appreciate them.

Thanks to all for your help - here is the finished Tink outfit for Aubree - anyone want to make some bows to match it????? Hair thingies are not my forte' lol!!

I'm sure she is going to love it Wendy! It's adorable!

Here are a few pictures of Hannah and Elizabeth wearing the LaVida and the Linette Feliz - thank you Linette!! You are such a special person!!

Those are so cute! I'm confused though......who should I be telling what a great job they did on them? You or Linnette? They really are beautiful!

Oh, I'm so sorry about that. Times are so bad right now. I will be praying for him.

Yep, a truly ASTONISHING discovery!!!

SOOO many gorgeou things posted in the last few days!!!! If it weren't so late I'd comment, but I'm exhausted!!! Just so you know I was oohing and ahhing all over the place!!! I always feel so bad when I don't comment individually though!

And, prayers going out to all that need them.

Ok, I'm off to bed!

Seriously, don't you wonder who decides to do a study like that? And I always wonder how much grant money they received to do something so worthless. It actually really annoys me to think that $ is being wasted on stuff like that.

She is all grins and no teeth!! hehehe Georgia lost her other top tooth today at school! She was so darn excited. She actually pulled this one out. She was so happy she didn't swallow it this time.

Look how cute she is! Glad the tooth fairy will have a tooth this time!

So many great things posted lately! I am the WORST multi-quoter around. Just know that all prayers are noted!




OH MY GOODNESS! How cute is she! Leighanna lost one tooth, and then it grew in and forced the other out. I wish she lost both of them together, the pictures are priceless!

Thanks for the comments on Leighanna's picture. I wasn't sure if I should be mad at her, or laugh when I saw her picture. I decided to laugh, and wrote a check out for the whole package!
That is her beloved puppy "Pink Spots". It looks like a pig in the photo at first glance, but it is a puppy.
She is so original with naming her stuffies. "Brownie", "Blackie", "Stripey", .....etc. You get the idea! I told her she should be glad we didn't name her that way, or her name would be "Wrinkly"!

I have seen it mentioned here a couple of times, but I thought I would mention it again. My give away is tomorrow! Lots of great comments so far on my Blog. Thank you all!

Wrinkly! Poor Leighanna!

Wendy the dress is lovely and we just love the pink floral pattern. I am trying to find red or pink for me and blue for the boys, same pattern different colours. Wow, a Feliz, you are really talented.

NaeNae, prayers for him keeping his job or a good package. God's grace in this difficult situation.
