I am not sure if they have toddler sizes but Old Navy has these:

and they are only $5.

Here are some Carla C's stripwork jumpers I've been working on.
This one I made first and did it very quickly when DD expressed the desire for a 4th of July dress for her doll. I used a smocked insert that I got off of ebay a couple of years ago. I didn't get it centered, but this was the first sewing I'd done in a few years.
The gingham I used was too thin, I think. I should have used a thicker lining and maybe the top of the bodice wouldn't have been so wonky. This was the first stripwork jumper I had tried and was scared to add the ruffle!

Those are great! I love the bright colors of the stripwork jumper! I can't wait to see the rest of the projects that you have planned.

Steph - You inspired me to clean out a closet and get a few bags of clothing packed up for Good Will! Thanks!!! I feel so much better....how about you??? I stopped scrapbooking when I had two babies in a row...then I started putting pics in albums in order....then this thread came along, and photobucket where all my pics are stashed (in case of house fire) and now we never print out any pics??? I still have my little stash of scrapbooking stuff but its overshadowed by the sewing now. When I retire, I will scrapbook!!!! Less than 9 years and I will be in Florida!!!!!

I agree with both of you. Scrapbooking was my obsession until sewing took over and seeing Steph's organized desk and pages make me want to pull all that stuff back out. So many projects, so little time - LOL!

Steph - Nice job!

I can see why she loves it - so cute and sassy!

HannahDiva loves this too...though for SOME reason she thinks it would be better with an "H" on it...\

That's perfect!

I made my first super twirly patchwork dress today (well, it took a few days). My hubby thought I was nuts! I would not have tried it without the ruffler and serger. I ended upo doing a rolling hem with my serger after trying to iron for a regular hem. That would have taken forever!

Here is the twirl factor:

So cute!

One More Dress-

I finished the applique before I got my new machine. This one was done by hand. The Queen of Hearts is for my almost 3 year old DD to wear to Fantasmic. Her sister is wearing Maleficent and her step cousin is wearing Jack Skellington.

I am not sure if you can tell but the red is not polka dots. It is hearts.

Love it, and what perfect fabric!

I did it!

Here it is, the final Mulan dress. I know there are a million mistakes and pretty much everyone could do better...but hey, Emilee loves it!!!

It looks GREAT!

ToadStool- Here it is- just for you!




now, obviously this is a large wall hanging, but this book also has twin quilts, it would be easy enough to square it off along the top and bottom and add bigger pieces to make it the size of the top of a bed and then add borders to give yourself however much length on the sides and top you want.

some pictures I took recently, just cause I thought they were cute..



This is from the week before the 4th, she is trying out a sweater my Aunt knit for her (size 6 months)

Both are so adorable, there's something so sweet about a baby in a white knit sweater. =)

Okay I can't confirm or deny that I "know" who this baby is...

...BUT...

I KNOW this is the cutest and messiest baby in this contest, and his disboutiquer Momma would be FOREVER GREATFUL if you voted for him in this contest as she very very badly could use photo printing/a new camera!!!!

http://family.go.com/messy-baby-contest/messy-baby-boys/you-say-messy-like-it-s-a-bad-thing--8857/

That mystery baby was so cute I HAD to vote for him!

Well it is a little big for her but that just means it will fit her next year! (I have really skinny kiddos) So I added the red ribbong and made a very simple bow where the flower xcould be pinned on with a safety pin. I think I like it better with just the ribbon but Juliet likes the flower.
Here is her hamming er, posing...

twirling..

and one of all 3 girls...

Thanks for looking and the advice.
Carol

That turned out fantastic, and what lovely girls!

Ok So this is another pattern that I just got off of YCMT.
This was the first time making it so please no jokes...

(NOTE I need to cut off the threads that are hanging out)

I think it looks good!

Wooops, I forgot the pics!

What a perfect UP! outfit, can never get enough of Kevin.

Ok
ok. I'm sorry. My internet is down, hopefully I'll have it back up on Fri. And I promise lots of pictures. But first things first. The new princess has a name. It was awful being under the gun of the vital statistics office.
Her name is Violet. Violet Cincinnati.

And she is LOVELY! She has a touch of jaundice so we are nursing constantly and mom would like a nap but otherwise we are both well. She is a bit fussier than my other 2 were. She certainly had been acting like the youngest even since the false alarms!

Thank you all for your well wishes and concern. I love this thread!!!

Love the name Violet-we have a Violet Eden. =)

The Vida is a piece of cake.

I had to laugh about the babies customs. I swear if I ever had another baby that would be me. LOL



I love the name Violet. It is beautiful. I really love classic girly girl names. My oldest has an unusual middle name. It's Cheek. It is a family name and I love it. We call her Cheekies.




Fantasmic is intense but I firmly believe it is the best attraction Disney has. My kids have always loved it. We just reminded them that Mickey saves the day.

Check this out for the crystal palace. http://stitchontime.com/osc/product_info.php?products_id=1861 It also comes in 4x4.

Here is my DD's latest tank. If anyone does not know she is slightly NBC obsessed.

Love the tank!

Here are the jumpers I've worked on this week while my children are with their grandparents. These will be a surprise for DD! Thanks again for all the advice on the gathering of the ruffle!

Now, I want to make matching nightgowns for DD and her doll using an extended portrait peasant top, a stripwork jumper using the Michael Miller Dick and Jane fabric for the first day of homeschool co-op, not to mention customs for DW in September: a stripwork princess jumper with a smocked inset of a glass slipper, a stripwork jumper with minnie dots, a zebra print twirl skirt with matching mouse ears applique, a smocked insert tee for DS with Aladdin and Genie, a couple of mouse ears appliqued tees, and maybe some bowling shirts for DS. I also found some aqua fabric with darker aqua mickey heads on them and some aqua gingham, so I'll come up with something to use for that. Maybe portrait peasant and the easy-fit pants for DD and shorts and a bowling shirt for DS? I think the sewing bug has bitten me! So many projects, so little time!

So cute!

here is my newest creation. Roseanna is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited to wear this one to school. SHe hasn't taken it off since I finished it

Wow this is gorgeous!

HannahDiva loves this too...though for SOME reason she thinks it would be better with an "H" on it...

Okay ladies, what about this for Phineas for his breakfast at Crystal Palace? the shirt will only be worn for breakfast because after that we all turn into PIRATES!

I think that would be perfect!

Too funny about Hannah!!!!!!

I love the shirt! That is a great idea since you will only have it on for one meal. We are gonna do the pirate makeovers on our first day and I am soooo excited!

LOVE LOVE LOVE This!! DD10 is going to like the skirt as well! I just picked up yellow fabric just like it and we had been talking about what to do with it. I love the pleats, makes it mature, but feminine at the same time. So cute!

Thanks so much! I have been trying to come up with some designs for older girls since Roseanna will be in 1st grade this year and I want her to still wear the stuff. She usually still loves everything I design, so I am lucky.

The pleats were pretty easy to do, especially with the plaid, it made natural fold lines for me so it is even all around. I think it is great for an older girl too.

Look how cute this Michael Miller line is.

What size do you need? I have quite a few sizes from Old Navy in my stash. PM me if you're interested.

Those are really cute. I especially like that they are bright colors. That's one thing I'm not thrilled with about the Japanese fairy tale prints - they're usually fairly muted in color scheme.

I've been making these for a little over a year now.

(This is a bad picture. It was not stitched at all, let alone double stitched like I normally do. It's not even the same clip I use now. This was just an example of one of the designs I do.)

I just came across this ribbon today.

(pictures borrowed from Ebay)

What do yout think?!? I can't wait to make some with it! I'm thinking of making some key fobs out of this, too!!

 

[*Toadstool*]

Is this the same fabric you guys were looking for?? I don't think it is, but just checking.

Another option for finding out which machine is most reliable would be to search amazon for both machines and comparing the customer reviews!

I live in the left hand side of the wrist, near Kalamazoo. LOL! Where do you live?

I have the Brother 6000 too...AND I also live in MI, lol!

Okay MI girls with the Brother 6000, where did you get yours? I went to the store that I thought had them and they didn't! Did you get yours online? And emcreative, do you live near heathersue and I?

I have all of those, plus a few others of hers..... I LOVE THEM! The safari ones and cupcake/icecream ones were the ones I used to match a couple outfits I made this weekend. In fact the cupcake/icecream ribbon inspired the whole outfit.

I ordered mine from WallyWorld. I'm in Jackson County!

Wow! We're all pretty close to each other!!!!!

Do you remember how long it took you to get yours if you did the site to home shipping?

 

[disneygirlsanddrew]

I just ordered one! Ugh! Waiting again.....I want to use it now!!!! =)
