And because you said Peter Pan I thought I would just post this! It has nothing to do with PP decoupage jeans though!

Oh my gosh I love the Jack Skellington outfit- so cute. You guys are amazing in here, I really am shocked every time I pop in.
 
For those that use sergers, do you set your machine as directed in the manual? Or do you set the tension totally different?

My serger doesn't have tensions - it is all set by the serger and automatically accommodates for the fabric that you're stitching. It's awesome!

Hi Shannon! I'm guessing you didn't get that at Wal-mart!!!! (Who ME??? Have SERGER ENVY????? :rotfl2:)

Mine did come from Wal-mart. It has the adjustable tension knobs, but I don't have to adjust them very often.
 
You can't quite see well the leg that I did decoupage on. I didn't want it too girly so kept it to only one leg (plus I needed room for more appliques) although I wouldn't hesitate to do it on both legs I don't think.

This is my favorite outfit for some reason. Sorry to all that have been around a while, I post it too often!

I did this on the back. You could just leave it blank or bring the patches around depending on the look you were going for.

That looks great! I love it!
 
Mine are set at

4.5, 4.5, 7 and 5

I pretty much only put regular cotton or flannel through it although sometimes up to 5 layers (one of them being jeans).
 
I am SO excited! DH and I are going through a DIvorce but understand (After MANYfights, yelling screaming and the umm, Police) that we have to get along for our children. It is a nice change and I honestly hope it lasts! So we were talking about our taxes and have decided that we are going to take the girls to DISNEY WORLD for one last family trip! We are thinking March maybe the first week. We have never been to Disney in March so it will be a new experience to us because we have only been in Jan and Dec so I have to check out some sites to find out the weather then start sewing! Working on a Snow White outfit now for Olivia and then I will be hunkering down and doing with any luck at least 2 outfits a dy to get them done in time!

Anyway, Thought I would share a few things I have made in the past week!

Thanks for letting me share my excitment as well as my pictures!

So sorry about your life situation, but glad you're going to be able to take a trip, and I totally love all the outfits- gorgeous!

Welcome. Where at in Denver are you? I'm down in Littleton.

DH is now home after having his appendix out. He's still hurting from the surgery and has a hard time moving around. I went back to work last night, I should have stayed home another day but we really need the money. DH usually does the school thing monday Wednesday and Friday so I can sleep in so I had to get up and do it today. I'm pretty tired now, I haven't slept much this week.

So today I tried to get a little sewing done since I haven't done anything all week. Well, I have now joined the club for cutting myself with my rotary cutter. I actually took a small chuck off the tip of my thumb. Ouch! I think I really need to go back to bed.
Never, ever, ever try to sew- or worse cut- when you're tired. Very, very bad things will happen. Trust me, there's reasons I know this... sorry about your thumb, try and get some much needed rest.
I thought those of you that make the bowling shirt would like my story. I made my first bowling shirt a few months ago for DS and DH loved the shirt. He kept saying how he wanted one. I kept saying how I was already making the largest size for DS(6). So I offered to make DH easy fit pants, but he still whined that he wanted a shirt. So I finally went to Hancocks and found a pattern that would give the same look as the bowling shirt.

What do you think? My only complaint is that the brown was to thin, but the pattern was almost as easy as the bowling shirt.

I also finished a spring patchwork twirl skirt for DD, but I can't finish until I get some more elastic.

Love em! Great job on the bowling shirt!
For those that use sergers, do you set your machine as directed in the manual? Or do you set the tension totally different?
My current serger sets itself, but the old one I started out using the tensions in the manual, and then when those didn't look right, I just messed with em till they did. Then I made sure to keep a note of what I did so I could duplicate it the next time.
Getting excited! Just had to mention take a look at my ticker.....Yup that's right, it's official, WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY in May!!!!!!!!! Not sure where we are staying yet but the flights are booked!!!
Can you tell I am excited?!!
Congratulations! That's fantastic news!
I am making a Minnie Mouse dress using the Precious Dress pattern by Carla C. I am making my GD a size 3, she wears a size 2, so I thought a size 3 by Christmas...and my DD a size 10, which is what she wears...but in a quick try they both seem to be rather tight.

Does the precious dress run small? Everything else I have made of Carla's seem to have run a little big. Ugh...I guess I'll just finish them up and see how they are after compete.

I find for my DD that the precious is a bit snugger in the bodice than I would like; I usually go up a size.

So Awesome!!!!!
 
Good morning. Great stuff lately. Just wanted to share 2 small victories this morning. First, I played hockey last night and scored my first goal of the season. This is big for me as I am a very defensive defenseman, and usually only score once every couple of years. Then, this morning, I surf over to YCMT, and there is a new pic up on the "I made this page" of a CASE of the Jack Sparrow bowling shirt I did. How cool is that!?!? My first CASE. Just had to share with people who understand. :cutie:
Wow, you go girl! I love that you got a goal! I will have to go over and check out the shirt.

Yes, you are very excited and why not? Congrats on the trip.

Nope. Not at Wal Mart! I WISH! But, no, I had to spend (what I considered to be) an insane amount of money on this serger because it "thinks" on it's own. I couldn't believe I did it at the time, but I've NEVER regretted it!

AMEN to that. I have the same serger and it is absolutely AWESOME!!!!:love::love:
 
I got my new embroidery machine today :banana::banana::banana:, diligently read through the manual:surfweb:, and am now using one of the built-in Minnie designs to cover up stains on my shirt!:woohoo:

Nini, I found that these did run a little small - Hannah (who is 3) usually wears a 3 and I made her a 4. Elizabeth (who is 7) typically wears a 6x/7 and I made her an 8 - I was very glad that I did because I thought they fit them perfectly. I hope they still fit them next year after all that work on them!!!

congrats! And that's a good idea. I've got a few stains to cover up too. LOL
 
Ugga....lost my multi-quote twice :headache:

LOVE LOVE LOVE all the appliqued jeans....the M2M Gymboree ones and the boy ones. Do y'all switch out the needle in your embroidery machines for those? I really want to try some this spring :)

TIA!

THAT is SMART! HMMM... I wonder if that shirt I threw out this morning is on top of the trash? I could have COVERED that stain!
