So funny! I made my friend a nursing cover with that exact same fabric!!!!
Happy Belated Birthday Araeyah!!!
The pictures of the dog are too funny! I love it!
Cute football set! Where did you find that fabric? I think Connor would like some shorts made out of that!
It sews exactly the same as regular cotton fabric. I like the way it looks when the outfit is all finished and at a $1.99 it is a steal.i love this fabric. i noticed the texture is different than regular cotton fabric. is it more difficult to sew with? i would love to get some at 1.99 a yard!!!

The name really does say it all! I finished my first today, and just have to say I am in LOVE! I was sooo afraid of this pattern, but it was really very easy! I also learned quite a bit while making this dress! You were right Carla! It was simple and it turned out better than I expected! Excuse my model, she is EXTREMELY grumpy today! Hopefully I can get better pics later!

Are there any cake bakers/decorators on this thread? Sydni will be turning six soon and I need to make her cake!!!! I made Rylie's on her birthday, but that was fairly easy! Sydni wants to have a Hannah Montana party and I thought it would be cute to make a guitar cake! Also, I don't know how to decorate it without using fondant, but I can't stand the way fondant taste! Does anyone have any good recipes for cakes or know what I can use for icing? I really can't afford to pay 40-50 dollars for someone to make it, so any help would really be appreciated! I am hoping I can practice enough before then to actually make the cake look good!![]()

I will go check out everyone's stuff...forgive me for not posting comments this time as I am so far behind, I would take up an entire page!

Grandpa update:
They are trying a different treatment now and if it doesn't work they will surgery today.
Thanks so much for thinking of us!![]()
Do you get Family Fun Magazine? They just did a rock n roll themed party issue. They also do cute cakes. Try familyfun.com if you don't get the magazine.
I worked on a shopping cart cover and case today. . . my future SIL bought the fabrics and bias tape and I made it. It is for a friend of her family that is having a baby this summer, and she wanted to give this to her as her shower gift.

I finally have an outfit for Kyle! He is a ham and won't pose nicely for a pictureWe have a mirror directly across from where he is standing so of course he had to make faces in it...

The lines aren't straight but they are straighter then I have ever gotten them!I am toy with going over the edges again but I am afraid I am going to ruin it.
I have the same outfit almost done for my nephews bday but all I need in is the white tshirt. shorts are done and the laces on the football are done so once I get the tshirt it should be quick.
Off to Wally world today to grab some littlest pet shop fabric and Tink fabric for a dress for my girlfriends niece and her dd'd bday.
Hi Everyone! Everything is so cute! The Nemo dress! The Stroller cover and all of the fall things that were made. Great stuff!

SOrry about the aweful pics, they were from my cell phone. I have made one in the past for my D5, but I don't know where the pics are right now. I used the pattern that was mentioned a few pages ago for toddlers that included Cinderella and another princess. As far as the dog, I just winged it and put it together myself. I am sure you could do that with the "pointy things" and the collar. Just get some heavy interfacing. If you were thinking more summer like I would just use some white cotton for the collar and some light pink for around the waist without the heavy interfacing. If you have any questions, maybe I could help, just ask.
That rose fabric is really pretty! I love this dress.The name really does say it all! I finished my first today, and just have to say I am in LOVE!

Aww. I love it (and my model gets very grumpy too "Why do I always have to try stuff on when you finish making it?").
Awwwww, that is precious. And she still looks cute, even if she is grumpy.
She (and the dress too) is just too cute! You did a great job!

Mindy- That turned out great and you sweety is still cute even when grumpy.I think that I will make one tonight. I promised Jenna that I would make her something and I need to try this pattern.
Gorgeous dress and I love her curls!
