CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME.....

I am making the twirly stripwork skirt from My*Sweet*Sunshines blog and I totally don't understand how to do the waistband part. I have the stripwork part done and the underskirt done. I just can't figure out what I am supposed to do with the waistband. Sorry - I am pretty new to this whole sewing thing and have only done Carla C's patterns. Any help would be much appreciated!!!! I REALLY want to get this done so I can move on to other things!!!

Wow all so beautiful. What wonderful works of wearable art. I think my fave is the NBC one, but they are all fabulous. Thanks so uch for letting us peek.

OMG!!!! You just made my night!!!

I made that one. hehehe

Angel, Gracie looks fab as usual. I think the Alice's are my favorite.

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.

Very cute Aimee! Love them in the heart together. Did you make your daughter a Vida that was NBC? I can't remember who it was that did it but I loved it!

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

Love it! That's a great outfit for an older girl!

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 love it! That's perfect!

Look how cute this Michael Miller line is.

Very cute!

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

Where did you find it? Love that one too!

We're going back in September and here is a sneak peek at some of the new customs I have for the trip. There will be too many for that trip but we will have seasonal passes so I plan to do lots of day trips. We may go back for a weekend in October, definitely a day trip in Nov. for my birthday, sometime in December and we are taking Gracie for at least a day on her 4th birthday in January. How can she be closing in on 4?

We didn't get to use this one last year.

I have a few others on the way too.

I love everything! I especially love the Minnie Dot outfit because I was going to do the EXACT same thing! LOL...Servane Barrau, right? Her designs are beautiful

Yes, we love the NBC around here. This my DD's Sally from last year. It might be my favorite custom.

I think that Fabric is on Etsy... I found it when I was doing my search for the other one. Actually the print is what led me to the overseas distributors as the seller is from Japan.

But... maybe there is another source for it. Do tell because I have been cruisin' swatches until I fall asleep. LOL

 

[Tink561]

OMGoodness!!!!! These are AMAZING!!!! How in the world do you find the time to make all of those?! You have a very lucky little girl!!!!!

Oh, I didn't make them. I made a Halloween skirt once but I couldn't make these.

I REALLY want to get this done so I can move on to other things!!!

Let me see if I can help. (I'm horrible at explaining things!) Measure you daughter's waist. Make the waist band 1.5X that measurement.

If your daughters waist is 20 inches make the length of the yoke/waistband 30 inches.

Cut a fabric strip 30X6. (This will give you roughly a 3 inch yoke/waistband.) Fold your fabric in half lengthwise (the long way) and press. Measure down from your folded edge 1 inch. Stitch down the length of your fabric - to make a casing.

Insert your elastic and secure it on one end. (I only stitch up one end of my elastic and leave the elastic loose in the casing until the final step - it makes it easier to attach the gathered skirt) Pin your gathered skirt piece to the unfinished edge of your yoke. Stitch and finish your seam. Pull the elastic the rest of the way through your casing and secure it with a few stitches. Stitch and finish your side seams.

Yes, Servane made that one. She is so sweet and I just love her work! I have a box on the way with three more sets from her. I can't wait until those arrive. Servane, Bayoubabe5 and Bowznstuff are my Ebay favorites!

I remember that skirt - it was adorable!

 

[aimeeg]

For some reason this did not post. I think this was the Vida you may have been talking about.

Angel, I was looking for my first post and I also found a Tink halter top you made two years ago. So you made two things!!!

 

[xdanielleax]

Ok, so these are TERRIBLE pics! They are actually from video but Jerry had my camera in the car today so this was all I had..lol..I'll take some better pics tomorrow. I FINALLY finished her Nemo outfit. After many a seam rip...lol...it's done! This is my 1st patchwork twirl. Now that I know what to do, it'll go a lot faster next go around.

 

[emcreative]

Tink, Gracie looks fantastic and the customs are AMAZING!

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!!

Cute binky holder...my first three children loved their binkeys!!!

Hey I love that animal print ribbon!!! I love all of them actually.

Thought some of you may want to post over on this budget board thread

Great...we get in trouble if we even speak the word and sort of if we say Etsy or that we sell stuff...can't talk about that on here....yet they have a whole entire thread about it....

After a week of waiting anad waiting and waiting for my ruffler foot to come in, I took a needle, thread, and lots and lots of pins to my son's therapy appoihntment today. I hand gathered...yes, that's right, HAND gathered two of CarlC's stripwork jumpers....(my grandmother would be so proud!)....


Get home this afternoon, and guess what is in my mail??? That's right...my ruffler foot!


Oh well...Happy mama!

Nini

Now that is impressive....but I am glad you finally got your ruffler...make sure you check out the Ruffler Unruffled (free) from ycmt.

Been a bad girl again. 2 days ago I purchased the Precious dress and bucket hat. Had a pin for a little discount, so not bad.....welll....today, I decided I had to have the Vida pattern. So, I ordered it. Hopefully, dh won't be too mad that I spent $30 in the past 2 days on patterns!

I did score some free fabric at moms today. She has been too busy to sew, so she told me take what I needed. She had the blue fabric I need for the Alice dress I am going to make! YAH! Now I have a pattern and material! About ready to sew. And I took some muti colored polka dot material that will work with her birthday outfit!

And some really good news! I came home yesterday and checked the mail to find 4 1 day PH's fof Disney! Yep! I guess since I worked for Disney store at some point this year I still get my free tickets! WOOHOO! Now we have 7 days worth of tickets and 3 of those days are free! We are going to stay through Sun evening and then stop somewhere near the beach off of 95 on the way home. An extra day of vacation!!!

Now that's a good day!!!!

Crud the doctor just called to let me know I have swine flu! Told me to rest for the next 7 days.... doesn't he know I leave for Disney World in less then a month and I have lots of sewing to do!

Hope you feel better soon...please take it easy!!!

Aww man that stinks. I had a kinda similar situation yesterday. I took the kids to the lirary got out to the van to buckle them in & realized my ring had slid off somewhere in the library. I retraced our steps 3 times but didn't find it. I am hoping someone will turn it in & left my name & # at the desk but so far nothing.

Do you think you could have vaccumed it up? I hope your diamond turns up soon.

HOLY COW!!!

Gorgeous! We are huge NBC fans here. I think I have seen that NBC outfit on here!

Oh and steamboat Willie and Mulan. WOW.

I am soooo lucky that my girls were not in the room. They would be wanting the NBC one!

I'm so sorry

That happened to me about two weeks after The Husband and I got engaged...I was erm...sitting on the throne and HEARD it "drop". Then when I saw it, there was a missing corner! They had set it CHIPPED! GAH! They of course replaced it.

I did get a new one.

Earlier this year, not very long after Phineas moved in with us, he "moved" my wedding ring somewhere. It was custom made and cannot be replaced. We still haven't found it.

I hope you find yours!!!!!
