I think this is my favorite creation so far. Lots of details in the wings that slowed me down but I love how this came out. The prints are some that I've had for awhile waiting for the perfect use.
I cute out 16 grey ears and 16 pink centers. Then I sprayed all the pinks and laid them out on the grey. I bought 8 pieces of plastic, I forgot to double the amount for two ears for each child.
I started to applique down sets of ears, getting the pink onto the grey and cutting the plastic to hold up the ears.
I got distracted and read my hotmail to find a note from the teacher now saying they only want two elephant costumes and NO not the ones from family fun!
Ok, I was in tears and can't believe this is so crazy when I have sew much to do for Disney and other projects. So two ears are ready and I am going back to the head band idea.
Can I just have a glass of wine instead?
You are too nice!Very cute fabric! How about patchwork pillow case?OK, so I had just sat down to cut the ADORABLE Toy Story flannel for DS4's pj pants, and I guess I wasn't paying attention to which side I was cutting. Stupid story short, I now have two strips of fabric too skinny to make into pants. Oops! So, I only bought a yard and a half, and I'll have to go get some more. However, I'd hate to just chunk this fabric. I'm going to embroider a T on a shirt to go with the pants, but I still have quite a bit left (just not enough for pants...well, easy pants). Any suggestions? I was thinking a couple small pillows for his bed. He doesn't need another tote bag or backpack, or I'd throw one together. Anything? I could totally kick myself since I'll have to go to OKC (about 30 minutes away) to get more fabric. Boo!!!
Anyway, here's what I'm left with...

I still need to get some pictures of Taylor in some of the things I've made her recently, but here are a few things I finished this weekend, sorry they weren't Taylor's size so I didn't have a model, but I do like the Alice dress so I might make Taylor one like it.
I was busy with a lot of bows too, I haven't edited them yet, so forgive any bad backgrounds.

Congrats!Aww can't wait until I can do the same..course that will come years later
Aww thank you! I don't do anything, they are for fun and I wear them to whereever I can! Mostly random conventions and things like that. I have done special events at several schools around me as Belle but it's just volunteer work, since I can't find a party business that's willing to hire me and no clue how to start my own, or get hired by disneydream job!
Wow I love that second dress! Maybe I should make myself a dress like that and who cares if I end up looking years younger
Oh thats nothing, you should see my "straight" lines!
me clean up the sewing room. They helped put shelves together AND then sort the fabric by color and hand it to me to put on the shelves. They did a great job and here is the results (okay....really I had to do a lot of straightening after they left
).

HAHA you would like cute in a dress like that, it's nothing compaired to your beautiful gowns though! It's funny though, my little sister actually wanted me to make her something like the princess one, but with all 8 princesses on it it took forever to make and I didn't have the energy to make he something like it, but she did wear an skirt I made to Animal kingdom.... with my 4 year old's pettiskirt underneath LOL

I'd be so ticked off! This attitude by some teachers is why I stopped volunteering at my daughter's school a few years ago. Bad enough they wouldn't say thank-you but then they started acting like I was there to serve them, I waved bye bye.
Oh! For anyone who has been following along, Levi's stone is supposed to be SET by next Saturday!!!!! I think we are going to have his memorial service on May 11, it would have been his 4th birthday. It's so hard to believe it has been that long.
Not very likely.... I have a scheduled c-section June 1. Isabelle was 2 weeks late, and Levi was scheduled as well. My babies don't wanna leave!
