Those are very cute! I love the fabric you used. They will get so many compliments with them all dressed to match.

That is just too cute. I love the matching fabric and how they all just go so well. Super job.

I love the colours and how sweet looking the outfit is.

 

[camelotcats]

Everything is sooooo cute!!! I think they will work well for a boy or girl.

I am going to make a romper for my neighbors new little one. I see that a lot of you embroider/applique on one side. Do you think this would bother the babies skin at all when the applique side is underneath??

Thanks!

I'm sure someone answered this, but MOST (not all) babies won't have a problem with the thread from the embroidery. If you are not backing the embroidery, adn are concerned about the stabilizer, I like to use something Called no-show mesh. It is a cut-away fabric, but us so super soft, it is the only thing I use for baby wear, as I haven't had any problems with it irritating babies' skin.

 

[Dreamer & Wisher]

Thank you for your kind comments!

The romper pattern is the Carly Reversible Bubble romper by CarlaC found on youcanmakethis.com

This Romper is lined so if you embroider the design on the fabric before you put it together you it wouldn't irritate baby's skin.

Hey, I get blamed for everything around here except for Global Warming! (which is ok with me...'cause most of the time I am guilty!)

Don't forget stabilizer....I bought almost one of every kind they had at Joann's to practice on. While I have a couple of favorites, now that I am actually WORKING on projects instead of practicing, I'm expecting my favorites to change.

I have not bought any pre-wounds yet...next week the Sewing Expo is coming to town and I want to be able to get them without Shipping charges! I have found that my regular sewing machine winds the bobbins better than the embroidery machine does...which I found very strange.

Nini

Thanks for the stabilizer reminder, I'll have to hit JoAnn's this weekend.
The sewing expo sounds like fun, I don't think we have anything like that here.

How exciting!!!
You will need some curved embroidery scissors too.
NO, the bobbin thread doesn't need to match the embroidery thread. Thank goodness, you would be changing the bobbin thread a LOT while stitching out a design! I've only used white, and have never had a problem. If you are doing something "In The Hoop", you would probably want to match the bobbin thread to the top thread around the edges. I've only used the rayon thread from Marathon. It works really well. You want the ones on this page:
http://www.marathonthread.com/collection.shtml

I've never ordered thread from here, but they seem to have good prices:

The shipping is pretty high (I think it was $18 for me) since they ship from Cananda, but it still ends up pretty cheap.

Thanks for the links, I'll check them out. I think it comes with scissors, I'll check.

I could not for the life of me figure out how to do the hat on my own so I found a simplicity pattern. It was easy, and I think I'll be making more of them, it's so much fun!

This is the one I used. It has 2 different sizes (and the drawer was stuck so I couldn't reach the other one )

Thank you.

MYA'S BIG GIVE UPDATE! I am so pleased to announce that we have met our goal to send Mya and her family back to Disney World!
You guys are truly, truly amazing!

I am so glad that this worked out for them!

I got my flayer in the mail today. I checked the coupons and they say " Limit one coupon per regular-priced item". That means more than one can be used at the same time, just not on the same item.

My problem is that it seems that every time they send all of these coupons they put the whole store on sale and the coupons can't be used! I always walk out of there unable to use my great coupon because the item is on sale for 10% off. bleh!

MYA'S BIG GIVE UPDATE! ...

WOW!!! You guys are incredible!! I wish I was confident enough in my creations to, um, inflict them on anyone but my own. What an amazing thing to be a part of.

 

[clhemsath]

Anyone feel overwhelmed by the choices??

I have been able to keep up barely, but haven't sewn anything for about a month (quick weekend away and helping a friend paint their house). I have all of these ideas running around my head for outfits for the girls to wear on vacation and I can't seem to get ANY of them out. The only thing I know for sure is that they want Step-sister dresses but my mom and I are going to work on them tomorrow. I have been working on a Feliz, but is seems like no matter how small I make this dress, my girls could BOTH fit in there. Has anyone else had this problem??

See, even my post is running together.

Okay, so my questions are as follows:
#1. What is wrong with my feliz?
#2. Why can't I make the step-sister dress myself?
#3. What should I be working on??

Okay, that is all for now. I think.

A question for my fellow Brother PE 770 owners Which bobbin do I need "A" or "L" Thanks for the help.

 

[cydswipe]

Wow, is this picture bad or what!?!?!?!? I'm attempting to get the girls to bed and take photos... what was I thinking?

The double ruffle Faith Dress is for Maya and the stripwork jumper is for Ali..

We're making matching bracelets (well, my DD9 and DD6 are).. I will post better pictures of the whole set tomorrow.

My first Big Give!
Monica

Me too! I just picked up my new Brother 780D last week. I haven't gotten a chance to play with it, yet, but I've got lots of plans : )

 

[jacksmom]

Hi! Can anyone suggest a good sewing machine for a beginner?? Or, what options I should be looking for? Thanks for your help!

 

[NaeNae]

Didn't someone have "L" prewound bobbins that they couldn't use???? If so please pm me. That is what my machine uses.TIA

 

[Tracie]

I think I had a jedi Mickey but can't remember. Where can I find a design of it? Other than on the mess I call my files for photoshop.

I have one
