It isn't perfect, but I have never made one. I kinda suck at sewing sraight lines! LOL! Now I want to try Machine Applique!

Looks great. Straight lines are overrated.

I've finished up a few things! First a meghan peasant dress for me to wear to a medieval themed meeting

secondly, I made this today for a friend's daughter - it will be worn with an apron and headscarf as a Cinderella rags dress

Awesome stuff as usual.

I spent most of the weekend loving on my little DGDs (ages 2 & 5). We had fun all weekend...even took off Monday to keep them so my daughter (their mom) could go to a job interview. So I let them help 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).

The room looks great, love seeing the fabric all organized like that.

I haven't had a chance to catch up on what I've missed in the last 5 days or so. But, I wanted to post the dress that I made for Tessa to wear to our parent's anniversary party on Sunday. They've been married for 46 years!!

This is CarlaC and Jennifer Paganelli's Cathy pattern. I made the sash to cinch it in at the waist. I made a fabric casing for the neck elastic instead of using bias tape. But, I really like the way it looked better when I followed the pattern and used the bias tape.

With a Sis Boom sash:

Very nice. Looks good on Tessa.

You girls are all so amazing. So many pictures of great things!!

I also had to make one for Casey, DD's bitty baby...

That looks really, really great. Love the itty bitty version too. Well done!

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.

I'll be sending prayers to your family that day. I'm so glad little Gabriel will be along with you that day as well to help see you through it.

And BTW: Great job on the taggie! It's adorable!

 

[tricia]

Got a lot of stuff done lately. Don't have pics of everything yet, but will soon. In the meantime, here is a tinkerbell set.

I'm so glad that everything is coming together. The pictures I saw of the stone look beautiful. It is a wonderful tribute to such a special little boy.

Tessa looked so GORGEOUS on Sunday! The dress is so pretty Heather, I just love the way the Cathy looks with a sash! It is so feminine and pretty! I REALLY wish I would have had Lydia wear hers!!!

You girls are all so amazing. So many pictures of great things!!

I finally got my pink Cinderella dress done. Thanks to everyone who replied to my ribbon question...I love the way it turned out with it!

I'm still thinking about cutting the white and adding a ruffle to the bottom of it...of course that would require a trip to Joanns.

I also had to make one for Casey, DD's bitty baby...

My oldest DD decided she wanted to be "cleaning Cinderella". I have that one done, but forgot to take pictures of her wearing it...hopefully I can manage to get a few soon.

Hope everyone has a great day!
Sara

Oh wow!!! This turned out so pretty!!! I would leae the white as it is. It looks perfect to me!

I just made Cinderella's pink and her rags dress too!

I LOVE it!!!! That is so pretty! I love your choice of fabrics on the skirt!

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.

Absolutely amazing, as usual...

I think it came out great, and a great idea for future gift ideas for me!

Both look great, you are too cute!

You have to remember this is a 10 x 9 room and the closet is on the wall you can't see. Very tiny and compact.
If you had seen it before, you would know what a vast improvement this is.
Tonight I played with my embroidery machine and stitched out one of Heathers cuties....it turned out GREAT. Now to make something with it.

Great job organizing!

I have been trying to organize my fabric better. I bought the comic book boards to wrap the fabrics around and I am in the process of working on cleaning up, in between projects.

I love it, makes me want to get that pattern. Just what I need, more patterns that I can't get to

That came out great, so pretty!

Everything posted by everyone looks so great, constantly giving me more ideas!

My latest creation, I used the upcycled halter pattern again, to make this dress for my DGD.

Used an old WDW tank top and one of Heather's embroidery designs (thanks Heather!)

I am just about done Juliet's Cars outfit. I have to topstitch the ruffle on the skirt and have toput the ribbon tie on the back. I found out I am really partial tothe ribbon tie instead of the button on the back. I think it makes it more "girly". I feel like there is something missing but Juliet likes it. I did not put the contrast on the bottom but made the ruffle all the way aro9und the top. I got pretty good at the top contrast/strap piece BUT - in the directions it says "9)Pin & sew the contrast, to the contrast lining right sides together. Open up the folded edges, stitch across the back edges, around the top and down the other side." I am bamboozled by what they are talking about here. I do not know if I am making it how they say to or not but it comes out ok so I will just keep doing what I am doing.

I would love to have modeled pics but she is at school. I haven't even tried it on her yet.

 

[luvinyou]

I have been in lurk mode lately, but I have to say I am loving everything everyone is making! Absolutely gorgeous!

I have finally had some free time so I got to sew something! Some denim ruffles for my Ava

 

[Diz-Mommy]

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 was thinking that would make an adorable raggie quilt since it's flannel fabric. I need to get to Hancock to see if we have any of those prints, my boys are crazy about Toy Story!!

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?

I think that teacher needs a detention!!

You're doing a great job with your space!! That's about the size my craft room will be when we build our next house, but it's NOT allowed to be a spare bedroom!! NO BEDS ALLOWED!! I love how organized your fabric is!! AND I love your sewing desk too!!

Well ever since I got my embroidery machine, scrapbooking has taken a side...

I'm SO UPSET with Creative Memories!! Not only did they change album sizes and page sizes on me while I was away, but they got rid of the album I need for my new baby!! I've used this album for my boys and I was hoping to use it for my baby girl too...

Does anyone know a Creative Memories consultant that may have this album coverset on hand?

Of course it's on that auction site, but they are asking almost twice the price for it I wouldn't mind paying a little more if it came with pages, but it's just a coverset.

I was wanting to make some of the burp clothes made w/cloth diapers, but I can not seem to find them anywhere!!! can someone tell me where to find them, maybe I am looking in the wrong places! ugh!!!

I thought I'd share a few pictures with you guys!

The other week, I took some pettiskirts over to Mom's house on Pizza Night to show Heather. This is what happened after that:

Doesn't Heather look cute in the petti!

and, that's me!

Corey tried it on too, but I don't know that he'd want me posting pictures of that!

And, last night, after the hour it took me to brush the tangles out of Lydia's hair, she decided she wanted it cut, "as short as Arminda's"

So, here she is! I think I took off a good 6 inches.

It looks a lot cuter today, because I washed it after I took the pictures, and didn't brush out her waves.

For reference, here are some pictures I took of her last week (way more pictures that necessary to follow, just because I think she's so stinkin cute!):

She was putting on a talent/fashion show for me.

I wish I had gotten her when I wasn't behind the Dogwood tree!

I just thought this one looked cool!

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.

Love them all!
