OH MY GOODNESS!!! Look at all that Mickey Swirl!! I'm SO J-E-A-L-O-U-S!!

 

[mom2faith]

Good afternoon ladies.

Last week I wrote looking for a dress for DD (thank you for the responses, I will be getting back to you today, but as you will see something else has come up).

I was wondering if you gals ever did any donating to fundraisers? I am organizing a fundraiser for a very sick girl who has leukemia. Her family is struggling financially and we are trying to assist them. I was hoping my DIS friends could assist with this cause.

Anyhoo, email me if you are interested in more informaiton.

mom2faith@hotmail.com.

Thanks a bunch for considering this - we need all the help we can get

 

[MouseTriper]

I've purchased one from this seller: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Tigerlilyhill-Embroidery-Designs__W0QQ_armrsZ1
She's not showing it in her store right now but you can email her and ask if she still has it.

Thank you, I will check that out.

the big give outfits all I can say isit is so hard to do a snow white theme outfit for boys !! it looks perfect,

Love the Puppy Birthday love the idea !!!! my older boy was really into dinosaurs ,when he was 4 yrs and we did the Dino theme party including "digging for dinos" , hunting dinos, and dino pinatas ...we spent the most for that party , but was the best!!!! the kids had so much fun, OH how I miss those days!!!
Love the kids pictures!!!

T you look beautiful, I looked so bad when I was pregnant I never took a picture!!


thank you so much for the compliments on the mickey disco dot top, I did not use a pattern as it was one of those accidental things , I had less than 1/2 of the fabric and decided to work with it , the bottom shape was part of what was left from another cut and I decided to just use bias tape to keep it at a good length ,the straps I made them too long so I had to add the hoops at the back , really simple

I am working on a Cinderella sundress ( this picture the dress is only hand basted) I hand basted to have an idea how it will look , as usual I am wondering if you think Cinderella when you look at it (dress is not finished)

TIME TO VENT AND I NEED ADVISE!!!

OK, so today I have our friends (with their two daughters) come over, we did a little sewing ( I was teaching them) and one of the girls was telling me how she got in trouble for stealing, I gave her a little talk about why it is bad to steal, how God do not like it, and how you hurt a lot of different people with your actions (parents, friends , etc) and asked her what her brain told her when she did it ...her response was ...I knew it was bad we kept talking and BTW the last time (last week) she came to my apartment I promised her if she did good in school I was going to buy her a PSP or Nintendo dsi,


My youngest son collects trading cards, some of the cards are really expensive and he has quite a collection, the little girl asked me for some and I told her that they belonged to my son , they were really expensive but she could asked my son to give her one maybe of lesser value that he did not mind sharing ( he gave her 2 cards), well after the family left my son came to the room crying that half of his collection cards were missing!!!! more than 30 cards ( he's been collecting them since he was 5 and had them in a tin can even thought we bought him a binder with the pages to keep them and told him over and over to take care of them as they were expensive and as some of them were so rare , hard to get)

at this point I am so MAD!! I wanted to call the parents and let them know what happened , but my husband told me to let it go, that it was my little one's fault for being careless , I pointed out that one of the card I spent a good amount of money(it was for his birthday) and the told me let him learn a lesson

the family is to come back next Sunday and I really want to talk to the parents, to me is the principle of the matter, she knew we spoke about stealing and that being WRONG, if I only had a tape of the speech i gave her about it...I spoke for about 15 min to her and i thoughtshe "got it" , I feel so stupid and upset at the same time,

I told my husband that I will let her know that she will not be getting anything from us, but my husband says we have to because we promised her, I really do not want to get her anything , my husband keeps saying let it go...What will you do????????????????

sorry for the vent but I am so HURT!!!!

linnette

Linnette...please do NOT let this girl get away with stealing from your son. Those cards were his and I agree with all the others, he had them safe in his own house. I would definitelty speak with both the girl and her mother. I would think she would want to know her daughter was stealing. I also agree NOT to wait, the sooner you confront her the more likely you may be in retrieving some of his cards. I don't think you should "reward" the girl with any kind of game, she has to learn that there are consequences to her actions. BIG consequences.

Now about that dress you made...GORGEOUS!!!!!

My Aunt called me tonight my grandfather passed away this afternoon. He had been sick for a long time. I was hoping to see him during our Florida visit.

Oh I am so sorry to hear this sad news!!

have you checked a stitch in time? I have one but it came with my machine.

Thanks, I did check there but saw none.

Here is my first Big Give outfit. This is for Jacob's sister Abbigal.

I was going to have DD2 try it on and model it, but I thought better of it. I'm pretty sure she would have thought it was hers and I might not have been able to get it off of her!!! Does it look okay? I only make stuff for my kiddos and my neices so I am really nervous about this outfit! I can see about a million things I should have done differently. I hope little Abbigal likes it.

I think that tuned out adorable. I am sure they are gonna love it.

Sorry about all the posts!
Here is what I ahve been working on.

I actually made Kyle these shorts awhile ago but Friday it was finally warm enough for him to wear them. He has Darth vader ones like them.

This is the dress for my girlfriends niece that I got roped into and I really didn't want to make. Hopefully she will like it and once I see her in it I will be glad I made it.

This is Carla's peasant dress up sized to a 12! THANKS CARLA!!!!!!!
At 1st I thought it was going to be HUGE because I am used to making things for my niece and Nikki and Nikki is only an 8.
Her she is modeling it. It is for her BFF's bday gift.

It was windy and the dress is really big on her so it didn't twirl right. She had her pj's on under neither....

I didn't have enough green dot fabric . I wished I did because I would have done green dot then the character fabric but Oh well I hope the kids like them.
I think not really wanting to do that one dress affected my creativity for both dresses.

LOve all the new stuff.

I am home sick today...I'll be ok....but I just had to comment on a few things:

I did a quick goggle search and came up empty handed..I even check Stitch on Time....nothing...hope someone can help you find it...Buzz is out there somewhere.

Awww hope you are feeling better soon. Thanks for doing that search for me, I will think of something.

My Grandmom dies last night. She had breast cancer with mets to the brain. She was started getting morphine every hour for the pain she was in. It has been really hard explainning it to my girls, Juliet gets it kind of, but Joci keeps saying "we can go see her when she gets better", Evie will never remember her though. I tried to read the only book I had that dealt about a child losing someone but had a hard time reading it without crying. She is the first death we have had in the family that was someone they knew & saw. I am not sure how else to explain it to them so they understand. Any one have any good kids books about someone who was sick and died not just really old & died?

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I know my father (a funeral director) has books for families to use to explain what has happened to children so you may want to ask at the funeral home.

linnette

Linnette! The Cinderella dress is stunning! It's probably one of my favorites that you're done. Fantastic job!

I was going to comment on your card situation but so many other have already that it's not necessary. Just wanting to let you know that I'm in agreement with the other posters and don't think she should be allowed to get away with it.

My Aunt called me tonight my grandfather passed away this afternoon. He had been sick for a long time. I was hoping to see him during our Florida visit.

Great job on the shorts and the dress! I just saw that LP fabric yesterday at Wal-Mart. It really is cute! I'm sure the little girl will love it!

I am home sick today...I'll be ok....but I just had to comment on a few things:

Miss T- you look fabulous!!!! Sorry you're are so tired and not feeling well. I don't think people realize how hard pregnancy is on our bodies and organs. You asking your body to run two people. Please dont feel bad resting and make sure you do!!!!


Hope you get to feeling better!


For some unknown reason, I thought it would be fun to go to Disney without my kids. I don't know what I was thinking.....freedom perhaps or not being slowed up or whatever. Well, it was fun for about 2 or 3 hours and the rest of the weekend was torture. I mean I did have fun but the whole time I am wishing they were with me to see this or do that or meet the other Dis kids and play...etc. Lesson learned! I won't do that again....

Sorry you didn't enjoy yourself! I can understand that, I'd probably be the same way as you.


So sorry to hear this....prayers for all of you


I did a quick goggle search and came up empty handed..I even check Stitch on Time....nothing...hope someone can help you find it...Buzz is out there somewhere.


OH she will love it....its so pretty and I love the ruffle....really darling!

Yeah, well as soon as I drop this kid I'm hittin' the pavement so I can do the 1/2 w/ you so you'd better be Fo' Shiz!

Are you talking about the 1/2 Princess Marathon? That is what I'm trying to get ready to do. I figure it will take me till then to be able to do it ! One of my high school friends is also a big WDW fan (she did the CP and met her husband there ) and lives in Maryland. We agreed that we would do it together - but she is way ahead of me. She can already run around 5 1/2 miles where I am working on 5 minutes!

 

[lovesdumbo]

Loved the big give Snow White outfits!!!!!


Stacey-LOVE the portraits of your boys! That party was awesome!!!!!!

quick update. I'll be 31 weeks on tues and haven't taken a belly pic yet so her ya go!

Mind you I have NO makeup on and I'm exhausted so excuse the circles!!!

Hi Guys
Has anyone seen any disney iron on patches lately? Goofy, pluto, Marie??

THanks, wendy

Love your Cindy dress. I can't believe you hand baste everything first. I can't stand to hand sew a button.

You can't just ignore what this little girl did. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this.

My Aunt called me tonight my grandfather passed away this afternoon. He had been sick for a long time. I was hoping to see him during our Florida visit.

Sorry for your loss.


Are you pack for Disney? I still have so much to do.

I have been MIA this weekend and skimmed many of the pages---lots of cute stuff! We had a yard sale and made $400 to put towards the Disney fund!

Congratulations!

How did you make the peasant a size 12? I'm going to my my DD a top this week. She's still wearing a size 8 nightgown I made her but it is a bit snug. I was just going to add more at the fold.

Kristine's been hitting the gym to get ready. I think it's a GREAT goal. Besides, what's more motivational than going to Disney??? Good luck, you'll get there just keep plugging away. BABY STEPS! I always set stupid goals for myself while running ( I used to be "a runner") because I actually don't really like running so I'd be like ok, sprint to the next light pole then you can just jog to the next one. OR when I am ready to call it quits I'll use driveways but where i live they aren't very close to each other. It'll usually get me to keep going even after I think I want to quit.

Ok all you cloth diapering Twilight freaks Have you seen THIS???

What a gorgeous dipe!

 

[ireland_nicole]

Mrs. Miller;
Did you use a pattern to get the general shape of the dress? I love the bodice, the way the straps are, esp. in the back, o.k., everything... and was just wondering if you are working from a pattern at all.

Oh my gosh - pooping on Edward?!?! Wha??? That's one expensive diaper. The bid is at 69.00!

$69!!! It had better be a self cleaning diaper!!! Or at least come with it's own Edward.

 

[DisneyMOM09]

Thanks for all the compliments on the Big Give outfit! You guys really know how to make a girl feel good about her work!

That Twilight diaper is great! I can't believe someone would pay $69 for one diaper though!! I'm as Twilight as obsessed as the next girl, but wow that is crazy expensive!!

Linette, I love the Cinderella dress! As for that little girl.. you should totally tell her paents. It would really be a disservice to her if she was allowed to get away with stealing from your son. I know that as a parent I would want to know if my child did something like tht so I could find out what was behind it.

So after reading some of your blogs I decided to start my own. Yikes! You can go check it out if you'd like! the link is in my signature! If you have a blog in need of reading, I would love to read it, please direct me to the link!!

HI Nicole,

Isn't Linnette just amazing! She is so talented and can just think of something and make it. I don't think she uses patterns at all but she needs to answer that herself. She posts pictures of white paper that she has custom made to fit the person. Again, Amazing!!

Just wanted to say Hi and welcome to the sewing section.

 

[DisneyMOM09]

Oops forgot to tell you guys in my last post that after reading all of your recommendations for the Easy Fit pants pattern, I broke down and bought it, well the bundle pack with the Portrait Peasant the Stripwork Jumper and the Easy fit pants. I made one set of the pants (will post pics later) and have started the Peasant top! You were so right, Carla's patterns rock!!!!!

 

[MinnieVanMom]

YES!

Today was the day I did it. I put in the lap zipper using instructions from youtube. It was harder as the seam also had a inside pocket with an overlay but it wasn't tragic and it wasn't great either. The stitching is not the best but it was just a funky dress I wanted to make. It has sat on my table for weeks since I haven't been sewing.

I can't get pictures until DS comes home, if then.

But I am celebrating. I love youtube when I get confused and can't figure something out there is always a video on how to do it.

TIME TO VENT AND I NEED ADVISE!!!

OK, so today I have our friends (with their two daughters) come over, we did a little sewing ( I was teaching them) and one of the girls was telling me how she got in trouble for stealing, I gave her a little talk about why it is bad to steal, how God do not like it, and how you hurt a lot of different people with your actions (parents, friends , etc) and asked her what her brain told her when she did it ...her response was ...I knew it was bad we kept talking and BTW the last time (last week) she came to my apartment I promised her if she did good in school I was going to buy her a PSP or Nintendo dsi,

linnette

Love the dress, of course it looks like Cindy!

I agree with everyone else, you need to talk to her and her parents. As a parent, I would want to know if my kids were stealing things, how can I deal with a situation I don't know about? It would be a huge disservice to this child, who you obviously care about, to let her get away with this.

Didn't put in an offer. We don't love the yard/driveway. The house itself is perfect (although at the highest end of our price range of course!). The driveway is on a hill and kinda long- which would be kinda hard for me to snow blow to get to work since Randy works nights.

Our driveway is on a hill and it is THE WORST! In fact, on my list of requirements for our next house is a nice flat driveway!

Tykatmadismomma, sorry for your loss.


Love everything that's been posted, you all are one busy bunch!

 

[minnie2]

Thanks, I did check there but saw none.
.

Try emailing her she might be able to make one for you.

Everything looks great! Love the star war shorts!

How did you make the peasant a size 12? I'm going to my my DD a top this week. She's still wearing a size 8 nightgown I made her but it is a bit snug. I was just going to add more at the fold.

Thanks to the wonderful Carla' she gave me the exact measurement ! LOL
I had the largest size already printed out and I added .75 to the center but leaving that much between the fold and the pattern. I also added I think an inch or maybe 2 to the bottom since it would need to be longer for a larger kid. I hope it fits ok! I think it will because it is big on Nik but now as HUGE as I thought it would be!

I ahve also enlarges the Simply sweet dress the same way

Ok all you cloth diapering Twilight freaks Have you seen THIS???

http://hyenacart.com/clothcouturediapers/index.php?c=51&p=71404

What a gorgeous dipe!

Now I LOVE me some Twilight and some Emmett in particular but on a baby's butt for $69

What I really want is that fabric!!!!!! it looks like the design is in the fabric not and iron on or appliqued.

I also added I think an inch or maybe 2 to the bottom since it would need to be longer for a larger kid. I hope it fits ok! I think it will because it is big on Nik but now as HUGE as I thought it would be!

I ahve also enlarges the Simply sweet dress the same way

Thanks! That is what I was going to do-I have the pattern put together for the elongated top and it appears long enough. I measured my DD and she was only about 1/2" bigger than a size 8 but I think both of my girls have my broad shoulders. The peasant tops seem to be a bit tights right under the arms. I was going to cut the top out using the "with ruffles" cutting line even though I'm not doing ruffles. I thought that would give a bit more room in the underarm area. If it doesn't work I can always cut that extra off and redo the top casing.

DS did take an ok picture of the dress. I think the problem is the person wearing it.

It is fun and funky dress made out of batik. I think it will be good for Epcot or even MNSSHP?

you could also add a little extra length under the arm....
