[mom2prettyprincess]

DH made it home safely finally! I will probably be MIA until we get back from Disney World.... I may get a chance to peak at all the pretty things being posted while he and Taylor play though. Taylor is bouncing off the walls excited waiting for him to get out of the shower so they can play.

Hopefully I'll have lots of wonderful pictures and a great TR to post when we get back.

YAY!!!!! Enjoy your time with your family!!! And have a great trip!!

CONGRATS!! That is so exciting and I am sure Taylor is so happy to have her Daddy home!

I LOVE THEM! You are all going to look great! It's so cool to see my designs put to use! If you wouldn't mind including some appreciation photos when you leave me feedback, I would love it!

Great news on the trip!

This dress is so pretty! Tessa is going to wear her Molly dress on the first day of school. That reminds me, I haven't posted it yet!

What fun to take a "sewing tour" with you!! You have made so many cute things!! I'm so glad the tutorial helped!

Hello everyone,

I have followed you guys for a 2 years and love your outfits. I love to sew and DD has gotten quite a nice collection now. I am currently making a tink sundress and a birthday dress now.

What do you normally include in the gives for boys? I normally just do crayon rolls but I know of a wonderful family who's DD is undergoing treatment for cancer and she and her mom may be separated for 9-12 months from the dad and brother. I am giving the boy some things and kinda running out of ideas. Thanks in advance.

It's hard to come up with things for boys, isn't it? How old is he?

We are back from Jacob's birthday cruise, he was so surprised! The kids really had a great time. I have been feeling queasy and weird since we got back, has that happened it anyone else? I wasn't sick at all on the boat, but now I feel like I am rocking all the time! So irritating.

You're probably just pregnant!

I love the peasant tops!

She looks so pretty, Kim! This is a great vida!

Dear poohnpigletCA:

NO

Love,

Fairygoodmother

I love it! Congrats on the weight loss!!

That is adorable! I love the spider Mickey heads!

Have a great time with your hubby!

But really, I need to know how to add a sash to the front..
heres one I found online that resembles the precious dress-

oh and this one (like several others) has no collar- should I do a collar or not?

Beautiful dress. I love the idea of adding some color, but I would worry a sash would be too "grown up" looking for a gown like that. What about weaving some ribbon through the lace, maybe on at the bottom and on the sleeves?

This isn't the best picture of the dresses, but DD's baptism dress had some very light pink bullion flowers on the bodice and at the bottom and sleeves. And on older DD's dress, we added the light blue ribbon on the lace on the sleeves and you can see it on her left shoulder, too. Just added a little bit of color. Just a thought...

YAY!!!!!
I'm so glad he made it home safely and in time for the trip. I remember how the military loves to change it's mind and your plans. Hope you guys have a great trip. I know you don't look forward to when he has to go back ( I know I didn't).

That's great news! So happy for you! I hope you all have a wonderful time! Can't wait to read your trip report when you get back!

Can someone tell me which of Carla C's patterns would be the best to use to make Belle's blue dress that she wears at the beginning of the movie with the white shirt underneath? If you have a pic to post of one you have made, that would be awesome!!! Thanks!

The last few days have been a whirlwind between birthday and school starting. Everything posted has been fantastic. Love seeing all the Molly Peasant dresses. I think that will be my next pattern purchase, great for a first day of preschool dress!

Although it's not sewing, I'll share my son's birthday cake I made. He turned two and the cake is Disney related, so that's not too far off topic right?

We saw a very similar set of Mickey ears and I thought it would make a simple cake design. I was fairly happy with how it turned out. I also made Mickey themed (think Mickey's shorts) cupcakes.

The birthday festivities went well, still can't believe my little man is two!

My oldest headed off to kindergarten this morning and all went well. I made her a first day of kindergarten skirt using the blue nursery character print that was posted so long ago.

It's my first skirt and I love how it turned out. My daughter came home and said her teacher, "loved her skirt, hair and shoes of course." I have such a little fashionista! Here's a picture of her hair. It's five little rosettes.

I think it also turned out pretty cute.

So those are my crafty adventures for the week. Two weeks until the next birthday, so another cake and a birthday dress.

 

[Stephres]

I think that was for Megan- but she had a men's xlarge to work with. Stephers?

How about a bodice and then stringwork jumper

I did make one from the crafster tut posted previously but I had a man's large and extra-large for a then five-year-old. I like using it for the bodice for a jumper or a panel for a vida.

You're probably just pregnant!

Nooooooooo!

LOVE the cows in the background! The girls are so cute, all matchy!

With everything going on...I never shared my Birthday cake Tim gave me...

I love the random foot in this picture, I can't figure out where the rest of the body is?!?

They are beautiful, I love the fabric you used, cute girls too.

I agree with the teacher on this one, I really love the hair!!

You can use the Simply Sweet pattern. For this dress I added an underskirt and an apron.

 

[froggy33]

I would plan on making her skirts about an inch shorter than the pettiskirt. So if you make 10 inch skirts make the petti 11-12 inches. That way you can see the fluff.

The other tip is make sure your skirts are really wide. I make all our skirts/dresses 80-90 inches wide so the fit nicely over the pettiskirt.

Have Fun!!!

Thanks! I like to see the fluff! I'll have to try one out - it's definitely a lot of dress for a little girl, but SO cute!!

 

[Stephres]

I love the cake, the cupcakes, the skirt but that hair! Gorgeous, great job mom! I am not very good with hair and am envious of those with skills.

 

[minnie2]

LOVE all The new stuff posted! AMAZING!

Here is my latest Molly creation. I also made the gaucho pants from YCMT

She is making a face because for some reason the bug where going crazy in our backyard.

Thanks ladies! The hair really IS NOT difficult. Stephres you could do it. If you can do a ponytail you CAN do this. Here's a link to the tutorial:

The style is Rosette Buns. It's just over half way down the page and it was easy. It only took about 10 minutes. Of course my daughter's hair is fairly thin so her buns were tiny.

I just love your girls! They're so stinkin' cute! I love their dresses, too!

Adorable! Love the fabric.

There's directions in the first post in the thread.

I would use the simply sweet for the jumper and the portrait peasant for the shirt underneath. Then, if you have the precious dress, you can use the apron pattern for the apron. Or, you can just wing it. I made one before there was a simply sweet pattern, so I used a commercial pattern for the jumper. I still used the portrait peasant for the shirt underneath, though. I added a row of pre-made eyelet trim along the bottom of the skirt to make it look like it had an underskirt.

I LOOVE the cake!! That is so cool! The hair is gorgeous!! How did you do that? Her outfit was perfect for the first day of kindergarten!

Nooooooooo!

So cute! I don't see that she's making a face. She's just not smiling like she usually does!

Here's my versions of the Meghan and Molly peasant dresses.

I don't think I'll be starting my modeling career anytime soon....

This is one of the Sis Boom embroidery designs I'm working on.
