How wonderful that he has beat this!!! You probably know that this is what the the little Wish Boy, Bryce had. Has your cousin thought of requesting a Wish trip? It sounds like they really deserve it.

I think it is really wonderful that you are helping them out like this. I wish I could help you on the sizing. I do have some garment size charts in the bookmarks, they might help you.

I did not know about Bryce. I only knew everyone was sad when he was gone. I do not know what a wish trip is, so I am guessing my cousin doesnt either. I did speak do a higer up at disney that has helped me personally on a couple of things and she is going to make his room look like magic was there, but she said since he beat it, he could not go as a "Make a wish" which is fine by us! we are glad he has beat it! We will gladly send him. im thinking i will just make east fits and t's and err on the side of too big. thanks!

dI think he would still qualify for a wish--he has been through a lot and that would qualify him. Contact your chapter.

Hi Everyone!!

I LOVE that quilt!!!!! Love the outfits too!!!! Such creativity!! Its so cool to see different peoples visions come to life!!

We are doing very well for Taylor's big give - we could still use a scrapbook ( or a scrapbook kit), eye spy bags, any kind of bag anyone can think of (these girls are goo goo over bags), theme park survival kit, and I was wondering if anyone had an idea of a Vida for these teeny tweenies???? Isnt that a fun style for them, even if they wore it more of a tunic style????? thanks so much everyone!!

I have come to the conclusion...i really do not like to make the same dress more than once. If DD (Megan) had not asked so sweetly AND this pattern goes together pretty quickly, I would have said no.
The one without a Pooh Character is a gift for a cousin who is the same age as Hannah, I like the ties at the shoulder.
They are cheerful to look at with all these grey days and SNOW

I'm off to do a red Hello Kitty for V-Day

 

[billwendy]

Hi Everyone!

Nicole- so CUTE!!!!! I think the girls will look so cute in them!!

Hey, if anyone has a chance, go say hi to Taylor's family (our new big give family) she and her sister are having a rough time today - its chemo day for Taylor and she is sick and tired of being sick and tired - and little Sami is upset because she is afraid for Taylor and doesnt want to go to school alone - send over some hugs - maybe ask the girls a question or 2 - mom says talking about disney helps to cheer them up!!

These are so cute Nicole!! I know what you mean though about making the same thing more than once! I am sure your cousin will love it, they are cheery. Winter is so long and dreary around here too!

5 days until Disney!!!!
It will only be a 3 night trip but it will be great.

Lauren is holding her Snicklefritz Friend waldorf doll (LisaZoe's newest venture) - Malea will be coming to WDW with us so she had to have matching clothes too.

This is a CASE of Jeanne - Lauren is going to see the Lion King show in Providence in February - not sure if she will wear this at WDW next week or not.

Jammies for the PJ party Saturday night at POP - I have matching shirt and pants. Pants can be found at Walmart - I cut a pair up to make some easy fits for Lauren.

An up-cycled dress - to wear at EPCOT on Sunday and to the meet Sunday evening

A Mickey-Minnie vida with no real front/back - Lauren can wear it either way - to wear at MK on Monday

 

[MinnieVanMom]

Sorry for the MIA but I got into a car accident and most likely my car is totaled. With just about 30 days to our trip I just started to make the custom twirls to go with our pirate shirts. I plan to spend the rest of the week getting the strips ready and the embroidery on them.

I won't even try to catch up but will start fresh from here. I did see a quilt that for cute and jean pants with red ruffles, great B&W purse too.

Wishing everyone well and safe.

I love all of them, and I am definitely going to check out our Walmart to see if I can get a pair of those mickey pants!

How did you do the Lion King head, it looks great?

Okay, I think I was subconsciously staying away from this board because all this CUTENESS is making me want to get my machines out even more...waaah! They are still buried in the black hole that is our storage space! Hopefully for not much longer.

Only remotely sewing related, but I did finally find a spot for my machines! Here it is, my new sewing space! Cute mannequins on the porch are included!

I was gone for awhile b/c my girls got older and didn't want cutesy customs. But we had a little surprise so now I have a little girl to dress all cutesy and fun again. Her first trip will be in May and she'll be almost 8 mths old. I need to start stalking this thread again to get ideas.

Here is our new little one:

And her first custom for WDW:

I finally finished the 2nd autograph quilt top--I've been too scared to quilt on the first one, but plan to get some done this week!

This is just gorgeous. It's going to look great when it's finished. An easy "quilt" is to use DMC floss, and just do a stitch in the corners of the blocks, on the underside, make a knot and cut it off.

Hello my sewing friends. I don't post often but look at everyone's creations in envy. I do though have a question. DH and I bought a used camper and I want to make curtains. I have my fabric picked out and the measurements of the windows, my question is how do I figure out how much fabric to buy? Do I multiply height and width of window and then my DH has a calculator that that can take inches and turn that into yards but I don't know if that's correct.

Thanks for any help!

Curtains are usually 1 1/2 to 2 times the width. Then figure out how long you want the curtain. You probably only have to do a rolled hem for the bottom and sides. A little header, maybe an inch or 2, double that for the back. Lets say the curtain is 10 inches long, the part for the rod, 2 inches, 2 inch header and the folder over back would also be 4 inches, plus maybe half an inch for hem. Am I clear as mud? So for 10 inches long, you'd want maybe 15 inches. If the window is 20 inches wide, lets say double it, you need 4o inches of fabric width X 15 inches.

Thanks...I just finished my first Simply Sweet and I'm thrilled with the results! It was so much easier than I thought.

Super cute! I did that pattern for the first time a few days ago. I did a variation and made a top. I really like the pattern though!

Sorry to hear about your sewing problems today . Hopefully tomorrow will be a better sewing day!

Thanks some days you win and some days you don't I will be back to sewing tomorrow

I had one of those days last week and I just wanted to chuck the entire sewing table out the window and forget that I ever sewed! I hope that tomorrow is better for you, and enjoy the wine!

Thanks sorry you had one last week!

Okay I finally have a few to share!

The first is Chelsea's Big Give:

Princess Aurora dress and crown

Everything looks great but oh I adore your Sleeping Beauty dress! I so have got to learn how to make these!

and here is the last shirt I did for my Godson's birthday. Need to get these wrapped and in the mail.

Think I might do one of these quick for my little guy tonite I have some plain long sleeve shirts in the house.

Adorable!!!!

It's time to get sewing again...look at my ticker!!! We decided to do a weekend getaway for Savannah's birthday...she wants to wear a birthday princess t-shirt, and have me make a Rupunzel dress for Rebecca. DH and Marissa (18) have agreed to wear Incredibles t-shirts too. I figure anything I make can be worn again on the cruise in June. I'm so excited!!! We're staying at POR (BC too expensive this trip) and getting tix for LaNouba. Let the planning begin!
