Just a quick drive by to let you know YCMT has a coupon code for 15%off- it's makegifts15- wake up ladies, time to shop :)

Woo Hoo...it will still be going on when I get home! I see some great Christmas presents in some of the new stuff!

And..if anyone is thinking about the Rosetta Bag from CarlaC...it went together really fast, and the compliments on it are out of this world! I made one for my DIL for a Park bag in Minnie colors, and she is planning on using it for work. The large size holds file folders perfectly.

Howdy all! There has been some great stuff on here as always! I have had sewers block for awhile now but I forced myself to sew this weekend. I think my sewing block was out of fear of the feliz! I copied my first pattern onto freezer paper as well. I did have some trouble with sizing but it turned out pretty good. Here it is:

Awesome,

Very cool! Both that you are already prepared for Vday and the runner!

Thanks, but that is a Christmas present, and I am so not ready for Christmas yet.

Birthday Shirt...

This is the shirt I embroidered for DS to wear to school yesterday. The design is from Heather Sue. I used Black Yellow and Blue to go with his Jimmie Johnson Jacket.

Happy shopping!!

Ok....my DGDs DID NOT need anything else for Christmas but you know I can't pass up a bargain. I wanted the Rapunzel but it was already sold out but I got 3 others....they will love them. Can't beat $7.99 each!!

I have been out of pocket and trying to finish up several projects this week. I think I am seeing light at the end of the tunnel :woohoo: I wanted to tell everyone (since I can't go back and multiquote everything)...that you have all been making some adorable things. I love all of the Big Give items. It is such a wonderful thing to put aside your own holiday activities to brighten someone else's life. This is one SUPER group of people!! I am soooooo blessed to have found you all and become part of such a loving, caring, group!
 

I wanted to say that I love everything that has been posted, I have just been busy getting ready for our trip so haven't been posting much.

We leave Sat morning for 7 nights at Disney!!:banana::banana::banana:

Friday (tomorrow) night my work (Kodak) is offering a free showing of Tangled, so I got us 3 tickets for me, DH, and DGD to go see that while DDIL and DS are at a work holiday party. So we need to finish up packing tonight since we won't be able to do much tomorrow night with the movie and babysitting!

I have also been making Christmas gifts and trying to plan and get ready for the holidays. DH put the lights up outside, but we won't put the tree up and the rest of the inside decorations until we get back.

Can't wait to get to Disney!!

I tried for over an hour to buy these online last night and the website did not work. :headache: I am glad it work for some of you all.

I couldn't get it to work either, so I decided that was a sign that I didn't need to buy more stuff, but I tried for quite a while before I gave up.
 
I've been lurking (and greatly admiring) as I've finished up the customs for our trip. I'm finally done!!!!

Here are the last two customs!

For Animal Kingdom:

The skirt photographed funny, it really isn't wonky.

Full disclosure, my mom handsewed about 7/8 of the braid on for me. I pinned it and started it and she finished it during the Saints game on Thanksgiving.

And Mickey themed jumper:

Have to thank Adi for gifting us with the Mickey buttons!

I have a soft book to make for the trip, and then a pincushion for a gift for my book club's secret santa, then I'm done sewing til we get back. Then I am tackling my first Feliz for Kaity's Christmas dress! :)

Thanks so much to everyone for being great inspiration, pointing me towards great patterns, and just all around being great people!

Well, I have to admit...I can be pretty persistent. It was suuupppperrrr slow! I would put something in the cart, wait, then go back to add another and it would put 2 of the 2nd one and none of the first...so I would start over...then it would give me only one...start over...you see where I am going with this. I actually wanted 4 and put 4 in my cart but by the end when it only gave me the 3, I decided I could be happy with that. It was quite a pain. And yes...it took me about an hour to get those 3 things!

Jen - super cute! I love both of them. Kaity is going to be so cute in all of her customs! Can't wait to see the pictures.

Ellen - have a wonderful trip! You have worked so hard on your DGDs customs and tshirts for the family. You deserve this! Oh and lets not forget the many, many hours you spend on making the Big Give outfits. You are wonderful! Have a safe trip and take LOTS of pictures!!

I actually got to the part where I clicked to purchase it twice but then got an error message. I wanted 4 as wll but only three were in stock. I called as well and got a message telling to me to try again later. Grrr! Oh, well!

Scratch all that! I just checked order status on JcPenny's site and one of them did so through. So did get three of them:)
 
I saw Tangled a few days ago and I loveed it!
Has anyone made Rapunzel's dress yet?

I haven't seen it yet. I have a pass, and am waiting until can use it. I hear nothing but GREAT things about the movie.

Now I can't wait to see what you come up with. I'm sure it's going to be as gorgeous as all the others you've made.
 
Well friends after much discussion and a hard look at money we have decided to not do the platinum plan in February. We are still going for DH conference and we are going to arrive late Friday nite, stay someplace cheap, then go to the Dolphin, where the conference is and check in Sat. morning. DD will be flying in an hour later than our flight Friday nite. We really wanted to see her and enjoy our limited time with her so we are going to cancel the plan and just play with the kids in the park. The plan can wait for a better time when I have extra $$ to play.

So we still get to be in Disney, Mom is flying in Monday nite for her first time in Disney, we get DD for the weekend. All is good.:thumbsup2

Love everything...especially those buttons:goodvibes.


OK...need to vent:headache: Everything I touch today I keep screwing up.:sad2: I was making Tshirts for our upcoming trip and as I was trimming the stabilizer I wasn't paying attention and cut the shirt:scared1: Luckily it is small enough that I can fix, but it will bug me because I will know it is there.

Then I was embroidering a towel for a friend of mine and I forgot to adjust the layout, so now it is sideways. :mad:

I think I just need to go to bed and start over in the morning.:upsidedow

Chip and Dale Simply Sweet (X2) DONE.
Christmas Patchwork Simply Sweet #1 Getting attached to bodice

3 Portrait Peasants need elastic and gathering

I finished my first ever skirt. It took me a long time to get this skirt done but I am proud of myself for following through. DD already wants another one. First though I am going to put together the skirt for my nieces Christmas present.

I also want to make a shirt to go with this skirt. It will be something Belle

Here is the skirt. Pardon my daughters expression I did get her out of bed

So Cute!!! I love Carla's patterns, even if I have a question, I just ask her and she always answers!!

Hey everyone - we may have an oppurtunity to help in a very big way. One of our own Dis'ers lost her husband in the earthquake in Haiti. It is her and her daughters goal to provide small snuggly blankets to a new orphanage that will open up in January of 2012! They are just looking for simple 1 yard/single layer blankets with finished edges (fringe or whatever) for the children to feel snuggly with. I'll let you know when all the details are together - it will be posted on the Big Give Board too!!!!!! This will help our friend and her little girl work through their grief as they know that they will be helping children in Haiti as their husband/daddy went to do!!!!! This will be so cool for us!!!!!!!:goodvibes


PS - dont forget the shipping date for Emily's Big Give is 12/7!!!!
