Beautiful! The nutcracker applique is perfect, and I love how the heart fabric adds to the Toy Story dress.

In other news, I just noticed on the calendar that it was five years ago today that my baby enlisted in the US Navy. One year to go!

And, I returned to my first love for Thanksgiving. Felt and glue. As a kid I could be happy for hours with felt and glue. I read on the first page that we're supposed to show photos of EVERYTHING , so here are my Thanksgiving place cards (made with Ferrerro Rocher chocolates). I'd say they look better in person than photographed, but that's not true. They look like they were made by a pre-schooler, but I don't care, I had fun.

Those are great, whether they look like from a preschooler or not.

Did I make the first page??

*hangs head in shame*

I think this is my most pathetic showing on one of these threads yet. I'm only about 43 pages late.

We love you Heather! I was like page 27. I have pics up on my FB page from the breast cancer walk. Thought you might like to see them.

I finished my granddaughter's Christmas dresses this weekend. We are going to see the Nutcracker Ballet in Houston Dec 17 so I made their Christmas dresses to fit that theme (of course they will also wear them to our big family get together and for Christmas Sunday @ church). I am quite happy with how they turned out. I had purchased the fabric online several months ago with no particular pattern in mind. When I finally decided what to make, I didn't have enough of either one to make both so I made them opposite so they would be alike and yet different.

the back (it looks a little droopy but the bow is just weighting it down because it is not on an actual person!)

and a close up of the applique (which I was super very happy to find)

I also did a Toy Story dress for someone else this weekend.

Beautiful dresses!! I agree with the other ladies too, lucky lucky lucky little girls!!

has anyone embroidered a canvas tote bag??? if you have, do you rip out the seams on both sides before hooping it? I tried to do one with out ripping the seams, but it did NOT work, so that one went in the trash can. thanks for any advice you might have.

Luckily the principal is on vacation this week because of the impending holiday so no TARDY slips will be handed out!

If its big enough, can you kind of turn it inside out and keep the back side out of the way???? I've done that before on a wider tote bag...

I thought initially it would be big enough, but when i tried it didnt work and I caught part of it in the stitching and ended up cutting it out which left a hole in the bag which left me frustrated...guess I can chalk it up to learning experiences.

MARCH 5&6 2011!!

Yes, that is a date that could be our next Disneyland trip!!! We will know on Dec 11 if we are going. Georgia's cheer team is going to regionals and if they get a bid, they go to Nationals which is at Disneyland!

Now, I am going to talk to my family and make this a birthday trip for her a month late. The girls are working so hard, and doing great jobs. Keep your fingers crossed!

Man, I haven't been on the dis in so long now the bug is back. haha Life has just gotten in the way of extra time on the computer. Now I need to go and take a look at what I have been missing!

Yeah, I did a bunch for my mom one year for her to give her employees for Christmas gifts. I had to rip the sides out too...some of them I only did one side though and that was enough to keep the back of the bag outta my way.

 

[billwendy]

Does anyone know of a long skirt pattern for girls (size 5T and 8/10)? Hannah and Elizabeth are in to long straighter style skirts right now, and I thought it would be cute for Christmas skirts......

Thanks!!

That is what I was afraid of, but I think in the long run it will be alot easier and get better results.

thanks to all who have weighed in, I really appreciate the insight I get on here from those with more experience!

Good Luck! My daughter's cheer team just had their first competiton yesterday and they got first place and a bid to Nationals in Disney World. She is competing level 2 this season and at our gym level 3 & 4 go to Nationals, so we most likely will not be going, unless someone gets injured and she moves up.

Just for fun here she is:

Hello,

It has been a long time since I last posted but I am here window shopping all the time. This request is for your help. My sister is trying to win her hubby iron bowl tickets. He was in IRAQ last year during the IRON BOWl game and she would love to send him this year. The contest is sponsored by WILEYS SPORTS and MARKETING EMPIRE. They are on facebook and you can click "LIKE" under her story - her name is TAMMY GRIFFIN SLATEN. Thanks SOOOOOOO much for your help. and keep up the beautiful work. You are all so inspiring. I just wish I had time to sew!

Finally! Yes, Finally! 136 out of 137 shirts are done! (I still have to decide and buy the design for the last one.)
i

You have to be exhausted! Congrats on getting it all done!

and what I came up with

Very cute!

When I finally decided what to make, I didn't have enough of either one to make both so I made them opposite so they would be alike and yet different.

I also did a Toy Story dress for someone else this weekend.

Those dresses are amazing! I love that they coordinate but are not the same. The TS jumper is precious too!

Hey -have you guys seen this before - so cute!! Perfect gift or stocking stuffer!!! Someone is making them for Emily's brothers, but I hadnt even heard of one before that!! So ADORABLE!!

I am going to have to look at making those for the boys to take cars out and about in! I wonder how well they roll up though?

Congrats to your son on one more year to go! I love the turkeys!

Again not squat done I am just in a funk and I want to get out of it!
