We had a great time! My niece stayed up late til closing that Sunday and we stayed til 2 am the next Sunday. She rode Winnie the Pooh over and over again. We now have a record of 17 rides in one day. We did the Wishes Dessert Party on our last night. She enjoyed trying the special dairy free cake they had for her. She did go on Jungle Cruise on our last day, just before the Dessert Party.

I haven't done a trip report-not sure if I will. My other sister is expecting in April. There's a good chance it will arrive on someone's birthday (other sister, father of the new baby, our cousin, or my birthday). Now I have another one to sew for.

I have quite a bit of material now to start making dresses for the other niece who gets to go to WDW next year.
 
I have also been wanting to share this and finally got the picture uploaded. It was my son's Halloween costume. Went with the blue fairy costume I shared a while back. I used a simplicity overalls pattern and made the colors for Pinocchio, I used a vest pattern off of YCMT.

Oh this is just way too cute!! What a great idea.

:snooty:

She says there is even a place for her to sleep (inside the play area). She says "I have a desk, but not a desk bed with drawers in the steps!" Apparently that is a cool detail.

Isn't this under that stairs? That is Harry Potters room.
 

It looks like it's a new magazine. I'd never hear of it. Thanks for sharing. :thumbsup2

Is that Carla C's Miss Madeline featured on page 49 and 50? Cute stuff!
 
Okay I know this is not Disney. But before we went to Disney in August, My youngest DS8 saw everyones cool bowling shirts. Well I promised when we returned and things got back to normal I would make one for him. We went to pick fabric and he decided he wanted a Steelers shirt. Well I finally got around to finishing his shirt. He is SOOOOOOOOO excited. He had to wear it to school this morning so I got some pics. Thanks everyone for ALLLLLL of your inspiration. Even if it takes me FOREVER to try out the ideas. So here are the pics.

Cute! Great job!

So I guess I will share this picture but remember that I am 38 weeks pregnant and not looking my best:

I made a size larger than my "normal" size and did not put in an elastic waistband. For the waist, I threaded a ribbon through the casing and pulled it out through a buttonhole. That way the pants can grow with me as I grow (lucky me). Once this baby makes her appearance I will open the casing and put in some elastic.

You look so adorable! What a cute baby bump! Can't wait to see her in person!
 
:rotfl2:No, that's okay. I'd just assume drink a bottle of rubbing alcohol as have a glass of wine! I really don't like it! :lmao:

I was only teasing you! I e-mailed the design to you yesterday. Did you get it?


Whew, I'm glad you're a tease. Wait, that sounds bad, but you know what I mean! I was going to say no, I didn't get it, but after checking my spam box, TaDa! There she is! Thanks, now I just need a fixed machine to make it work. :)
 
That'll be so cute to all have matching jammies on Christmas morning!

Sawyer is definitely acting like he's getting sick. At the moment, they both feeling bad enough to be really whiny and just good enough to pick on each other. I am feeling just tired enough to knock their heads together (but wouldn't do such a thing)! :lmao:


;)

You crack me up! I'm sorry both of your kids are sick! That's rough!
Glad your craigslist experience turned out good. I keep looking for beds for my DD on there. In fact, we found one we like today and we talked to the person on the phone and everything. My DH borrowed a truck and drove up there to get it and it was no where near good condition so no bed for us. :sad2: Guess we'll keep looking!
 
Does anyone know anything about the Brother Disney PE-180D? :confused3 Someone is trying to sell one for $250 but it doesn't come with a card reader or anything. Is this a good deal or not?
 
QUESTION
Would a 7 y/o boy wearing a t-shirt with Darby and Buster on it be weird? I asked ds his fav character from Pooh and it's Darby (but he also likes Buster). I was kind of hoping to make him an applique with Pooh wearing a Super Sleuth Shirt but ds says Pooh is not at all his favorite. DD's dress has Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglett. The easiest option might be to just make him a Super Sleuth shirt (I have a blue t that's close to the perfect color). What are your thoughts? I'm not so sure a boy should be wearing a shirt that has lavender on it (Darby's shirt is lavendar).

Adorable!!!! I love baby belly shots. And how smart to put a tie in them. They will be really comfy for you postpartum b/f you get back to your normal size. Unless you're one of those who instantly gets your old figure back. For me it was 9 months up and 9 months down with my first. With my second it was 9 months up and so far almost 6 years working back down:confused3

Have any of you heard of a magazine called Sew WOW?

There are some really cute kid's clothes ideas in there.

Awesome!!! I LOVE some of those styles. I was doing 4 Vida's but I am rethinking making my portrait peasant pattern into something similar to Miss Madeline for my Jasmine. There was one other I really liked too but the name slips me (I'm old -- short term memory loss).

Carla C has a Miss Madeline??? I was just thinking I could make the Portrait Peasant and add an apron. That was one of my favorites in the magazine. There was one other I really liked too.

YooooHoooo Heather
I forgot to answer your question. I have Shih Tzus. They are beyond cute puppies as they are 6 months old and almost fully grown. They are also very beyond cute as they can't grasp that carpeting is not grass. The male is pretty good, but the female whizzes the instant she sees carpeting. The male is much smarter but he bites the kids a lot. And I actually want to bite one of the kids right now too b/c someone is highly annoying me. It's way past bedtime, but no school tomorrow so figured I'd let them stay up late -- my bad.

I got the 270D for less than that - it didnt come with a card reader either, but came with alot of thread, a CD with the disney font on it and an extra thread cartridge - i got it off craigslist - its downfall is that it only has a 4x4 hoop, but Heather is taking care of us with hoop envy!!:rotfl:

Oooh...my bad. Hers is the Molly peasant dress on YCMT. But I bet you could figure out a way to add an apron to it and you'd get the same/similar result as the one in the magazine.
 
Yep, that's the exact same bed! It's even the same color. The pictures make it look blue, but it's purple, which is Tessa's favorite color! We got it for $500, with the chair. It's generally around $3000 new and an extra $250 for the chair! :thumbsup2 It's really well made and looks brand new! You should have been scouring craigslist like me! LOL! It was in Grandville and Henry had to make 2 trips to fit it all in his truck. So, he spent the entire day on Saturday driving back and forth, disassembling, loading, and unloading! We now have a Step 2 princess castle bed that needs a new home. I listed it on craiglist over the weekend.
WOW!
THAT is a super duper awesome deal! :)!

the one that I saw in the Kazoo tots-to-teens store,
last year (or so) was ON SALE for $3200!
It was just beige though = no cool purple :confused:

Generally, I "collect" pixs of cool bunk beds, loft beds, unique beds, etc.
For idea-fuel for my girls' room-remodels =)!
My little Liz just turned 5 & I THINK she's almost ready for a loft bed ... :lovestruc
But we have to be careful with her =
she loves to Climb-High-&-Jump-Off-Of-Everything!! :scared1:

I'm working on a blog page with a TONS of pixs & links ...
I'll make sure to post a link to it, when it's done :yay:!
 
Well great! Carla gets the adult size easy fits pattern done...and my computer is having issues! My main computer upstairs does not like Adobe...refuses to run it no matter what we do! My laptop has a dead power cord and (not so patiently) waiting for the mail man to deliver my new one ...TOMORROW!!!

None of the kids computers will hook up to the printer (old computers and old OS). I just bought new ink and paper in anticipation of printing out the new pattern,,,UGH!

Can you tell I am inpatient? Maybe just a little?

On a good note, my wonderful SIL, Korey, was given a clean bill of health at his 2 and a half year checkup and PET scan. We have been 2 and a half years cancer free! Six more months and the doctors say they can try and give me a grand child... (they got married three days after his last chemo treatment...had a honeymoon do over this year.)

Please slow down on your posts for the next 2 days...between doctor's appointments and computer issues...I won't be able to keep up!

How frustrating with the printer!

:woohoo:What great new about your SIL!:woohoo:
 
So many nice things have been posted. And I can't wait to get my hands on the adult easy fit pattern.

Why oh why do I do this to myself? I wait until the last minute (or work forces me to wait) to get my stuff done. I have 3 UFO's and last night I thought I finished an AK shirt. Until I realized I had the design on upside down...sigh. This is why I don't sew tired.

10 days and counting....if I make an outfit a day, I should be good. :rotfl:
 
Just received my Feliz pattern and have washed and ironed all of the fabric. Now where to start? I am a little overwhelmed with this pattern. Wow! Does anyone know of a tutorial for this pattern? I haven't ever worked with the european patterns before and I know you have to add the seam allowance. Any other help you can offer or maybe a link to a tutorial?:confused3

Thanks.

I personally have not used it (or even made the Feliz) but there is a tutorial on this blog:
