Have any of you mad a diaper bag and where did you get the pattern if you did? I was looking on etsy and found a few I sort of liked. Nothing that I loved. I just cannot justify spending $75 on a diaper bag that I am not totally in LOVE with. Most of the diaper bags I found were tote bag type and I want one that is on the bulkier side? Like a traditional diaper bag style. A little shorter but wider. Any help, guidance, advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time:cutie:
 
Ahhhh, I hit teh backspace key and lost my quote and now my new post is super long - sorry
These are pics of the patchwork dress I made for dd so you can see how I line up the squares. On this dress I did a plain ruffle (not patchwork) so I'll also post an old pic of a skirt where I lined up a patchwork ruffle.

Dress:

This is a skirt I did last year for Disney that has ruffles that are patchwork as well:

Hope that helps!
I love all the embelishments and appliques you added to this dress. What a beautiful way to make a special homecoming even better. Thanks for sharing the directions, I like how this method seems to show off the fabric a little more. The Mickey skirt is really nice too, is this the t-shirt that got chocolate milk on it?

Thanks to your DH for his service.


I think I'll make it one of my new year's resolutions to keep up with this thread. I used to be on here WAYYY too much - but since the baby I feel like I'm barely on. After peer's made me feel bad on FB for missing out on certain things over here - I'M BACK!
Glad you are back!

Just want to share. This is the skirt I made for Wendy for her Give. I love this skirt. I don't want to give it up. I miscalculated on the green fabric I didn't have enough for a hem band so I added it to the skirt to contrast the extra Heather Bailey Fabric I had.

th_wendyskirt.jpg


Considering this is only about the 5th skirt I have made I am proud of myself for figuring out a solution to my problem.
I love how you added the band on the bottom of the skirt. The colors are really pretty.

I posted some pics of some "Small world Guys" I made a while back.. it was my first attempt at hand applique. Heres the shirt...

th_DSCN0079.jpg


Heres my second attempt by request of my 2 (almost 3) year old DS:lovestruc

th_DSCN0072.jpg


Hes having a Phineas and Ferb birthday the end of this month, and I thought this would be great in Hollywood Studios!
Great job on the appliques. The Small World Guys are really cute. Your DS looks so cute in his Phineas and Ferb shirt.

I'm impressed. Wish I could get the hang of applique. I tried, and it turned out terrible, so I got discouraged. Need to get practicing so I can make some shirts for our trip. My parents, even my ultra conservative father, have agreed to wear matching shirts. Warmed my heart when he actually agreed to it. IT was one of those moments when you know he wanted to say no, but just can't say no to his little girl, even after all these year
How sweet that daddy still can't say no to his little girl.

I had to skip the Daisy outfit I was working on... I didn't feel like ordering one meesly yard of fabric online - so I will hold off on that one until I have more to order. Instead I moved on to my Toy Story line... I am nearly finished with Jessie - I used my own pattern (sort of) - it's actually a cross between 3 different dresses I've seen on here - but didn't have dolly patterns available for them, so I made my own. I must say that my pattern making skills have really turned for the better, because this dress fits and looks fantastic - I can't wait to show it! I am going to wait until I have Woody and Buzz done first though. I have Woody's sketched out (and fabric purchased -I hope to finish it this weekend), and Buzz is still formulating in my head. I really want to do a Bullseye outfit too - but I am not sure how cute an all brown outfit would be? LOL D~
Looking forward to seeing your Toy Story Collection. Maybe for Bullseye you could incorporate some denim, light brown and darker brown fabric with some horseshoes or something. I'm very impressed with your pattern making skills.

I also made one with a charm pack. (well the Tink fabric came in pre-cut squares as a bonus with some other fabric I ordered) I just uploaded it to photobucket, and I see that there are both a patchwork and a twirl skirt section for you to look at also.

th_IMG_5776.jpg
The colors in this skirt are really nice together.

OK..popping in here to tell you yet ANOTHER way to ruffle...but I do NOT reccommend it! LOL

I have a ruffler foot, but I am not 100% happy with the way it works, so I find myself hand gathering it...and by that I mean..I pin each end, put a pin in the middle of those two, put a pin in the middle of that space, put a pin in the middle of that space....repeat until you have about a million pins in and then sew over it!

It really does look nice, but takes forever! Of course, while I am waiting at doctors and therapists each week...it does give me something to do!

Seriously, I have almost always used the dental floss method...and before I discovered that, I used carpet thread in the bobbin. Of course, my seamstress grandmother taught me the way she thought was correct...which is the standard old lengthen your stitches and pull the bobbin thread up.


Bottom line...there is no right or wrong way to gather...but there are definitely easier and harder ways to do it!


...now, maybe I will find time to learn to use my ruffler foot.


Nini
Just wanted to add what I do to ruffle: I use my ruffler attachment (along with CarlaC's Ruffler ebook) to get the long ruffle as close to the length that I want, usually leaving it longer then I need. I mark both pieces of fabric at the 1/2 and 1/4 marks and then match them up as best as I can using lots of pins to ruffle the "extra" fabric. It works fairly well for me and might not look perfect but it does the job. If that doesn't make sense just ignore me.

Hi everyone. :) We leave in 17 days for a mother/daughter WDW trip. My 9, almost 10, yo DD really wants to do the hair/nail combo at Bibbidi Boppidi Boutique and then dress princessy for our CRT dinner ressie. She doesn't want to wear the whole princess dress costume. She states she feels alittle old for that and would not feel comfortable. I want to bring her outfit w/ us because I do not want to spend the arm and leg to get it at BBB. We saw a BBB picture w/ a Tink outfit that had jean capris w/ a tutu-like fluff shirt over them, w/ a Tink shirt and a fairy flowery head piece. We talked about doing something like that in a princess theme, but she was not overly impressed (but she didn't hate it either).
So I am wondering if any of you have older girls that have dressed princess style for CRT or if anyone has noticed what outfits, if any, they have at BBB for older girls, or if anyone has ever put together somting like this. I believe she plans on wearing a tiara. This close in, I'd rather purchase the items than try to make them, unless it is just adding a little crafty item or something, but no major sewing. Any great ideas?
Thank you in advance!!
Congrats on your trip. The last time we went to BBB (about a year ago) I don't remember them having anything other then full out princess dresses (and a Jasmine pants costume). I think you would be able to add some ribbon to some jeans to creat capris to go along with a princess t-shirt. Maybe add some matching ribbon to the sleeves and bottom of the t-shirt to jazz it up. Others have used those crystals to "bling" up an outfit. There are some glue products at Joann's that are made for fabric that would probably hold up well for this type of application (not sure how they would look after being washed).

this is the skirt I made with charm squares quite a while ago

th_DSCN0427.jpg
Beautiful.

Aside from fixing the binding in a few spots on the back my quilt is done, so I thought I would go ahead and post a picture:
th_P1010336.jpg


Other than sewing on the binding it wasn't too bad to do, but I won't be starting another one right away either
This came out really great. Did you do all the embroidery too?

My luggage tags arrived today :) Yaaaay!

So much to get done and not enough time... totally stressing out when I should be excited and happy. I have a ton of orders to get done for customers, my DS2 is turning 3 on Monday, so I have a party to finish planning, my house is wreck, and I have a billion things I still wanted to make my kiddos. Ack! I need some of Cinderella's little mice friends to help me get everything done!
:cool1: There never seems to be enough time. Don't worry about cleaning the house, it will just get messy again. Happy Birthday to your DS

I think I am finally caught up! Everyone sure has been busy, there are a lot of beautiful things posted. I think I have only posted here once since we got back from our trip in November. Things have been hectic here. DS,DDIL and the babies were home for Christmas. I did sew a little, I made an audrey skirt for Christmas and I managed to make my first Feliz! Thanks to Teresa I had a petti for Emily to wear under it. She loves that petti! She was only here for a week but she would say to me Ganma, I nee a pin (I need to spin) so she would put it on and twirl her little heart out! Sadly, they were only here for the week. I don't know why the
Air Force needed to send them 1600 miles away when I am 20 min from McGuire AFB and about an hour from a few others.

Just because I love the way he looks at her!

Sorry to hear about your dog. I'm glad you were able to spend some time with the grandkids. The matching outfits are great. That Feliz is just gorgeous. I love the picture of the two kids on the couch. What cuties.

Fixed my embroidery machine problem another total user error problem LOL.

Now stitching out aurora for the second time.

Need to check and see if my son is up when I get to this next color change.
Glad you figured it out.

The next day I told DD that I don't see her putting any effort into the trip at all. I didn't want to drag her to the beaches of Mexico for a week if she really has no interest.

So within hours she has both sites reviewed, the airlines flights with times she likes, and a general idea of what she wants to do.
Yesterday, right before making the hotel reservation, I called the ex to make sure of the return. He asked reviewed our plans and refused her to allow to go because my last connection leave before her flight. Period, end of story, no other options. He said no, she may not go to Mexico.

I have put so much work, time and effort into this and finally get DD to have an interest, only to be told that she can't go.

I really don't like my EX.

Good news, DD is coming out here for spring break. DS is still going to be in school so we can't do a lot of things but time together is better than no time at all. The ex also made this trip with a early return and more $ for me. He just can't leave it alone.
Sorry your spring breaks plans did not work out. At least it seems like you got across to your DD that she needed to make an effort with the trip planning. I'm sure next time she will be more willing to give her input. Sorry your EX is not very helpful when you are trying to make plans to see your daughter.

WOW, I just stumbled upon this thread, and I am in awe of eveyone's work. My family and I are going to WDW in March for Mardi Gras, and I have spent the last few weeks/months creating outfits for my son and daughter as well as sweatshirts for the whole family (Mickey with a jester hat). As soon as my husband finishes taking down the Christmas lights, I am going to have him load the pictures I have taken and hopefully figure out how to load them on here.
So excited to have found a group of people that have the same interests (I swear my husband thinks I am the only one!)
-Heather
Welcome! Glad you found us too.

Ok, I hope I am doing this right!
As far as crafting, I enjoy cross stitch the most, but I also sew. I have an old embroidery maching that I use mostly now for hand applique. Currently it is being serviced because the bobbin wasn't working properly.
Here are the pics of what I have already created. I have more for my daughter than infant son, so any suggestions for boys is appreciated!

These are really cute (but we need bigger pictures). I really like the jeans and t-shirt outfit. It always seems to be hard to make stuff for little boys but if you look back on this thread you will probably find some cute things. Some people recently made some rompers for baby boys with Disney fabric that came out really cute.

Greetings All.
We'll be going to Disney as a blended family this August. I enjoy making Disney Dresses for my granddaughter, age 5. She loves the princess look and I love making the dresses out of cotton so they're nice and cool.
My dilemma is that another new "granddaughter" (age 9 - going on 10) will be coming along this time. She lives out of town and I really don't know her. I don't want to leave her out. I can't ask her or her mother about preferences because this trip is a surprise! Can't think of a better way to get to know my new daughter in law-to-be and her family... I do know her size, so that won't be a problem.
Do any of you have any suggestions that will be nice, but not too young looking? I have NO idea what a 9 year old girl would like. My little 5 year old is a total girly-girl and into princesses, so that's all I know....
Tlhanks for your advice.
Gretchen
How sweet of you to make some stuff for your granddaughters. I'll try to dig up some pictures to post from our last trip when my DD was 8.
 
Anyway, here are a few pictures. I am sorry they aren't better but I was so busy playing with the babies that I didn't think about taking pictures that were post worthy

It was a BLAZING hot day, I think the heat index was something like 114. They all look like they are about to melt, don't they! Lydia (Ariel) had decided to dump water down her shirt to cool off before we went in to eat. I can't say I blamed her, but in that humidity, it just didn't dry. Lydia was 6 close to 7 here. Tessa is my niece as Jasmine and that's Sawyer my nephew in Aladdin.

LOL This reminds me of our family picture we had taken while the girls were little... we paid good money for that too! :rotfl2: I think it's adorable though - really captures the true essence of Disney. :lmao: I love all the outfits - they look so comfy. :lovestruc

this is the skirt I made with charm squares quite a while ago

DSCN0427.jpg

Beautiful!!!
Shannon, I really love this- I'd love to see it on- was this for a client? I have a bunch of charm packs, I should use for this (bought them thinking purses)
You always do such nice work!!!!
so for those who saw my link on the dog I was going to adopt- we got approved, but then they said we had to wait to have an appointment with their trainer because the trainer told them our kids were younger than what he would put with the dog. i knew she needed serious obedience classes and had her pre-registered, and then....Tom's car died. I mean, really died. I thought it was just a fix up (the SAME day we were approved for Lacy) but no, we need a new car.
Thankfully my Mom was in a position to loan us one of her cars (I dont think my Dad would have agreed to that, even if he couldn't drive LOL) Only my brother has ever borrowed cars. Anyway. As many of you know we eradicated our debt this year, so we do not use credit cards for anything. Training classes for Lacy, plus other stuff would have started our year off on the wrong foot. I cried all night about it, but we decided it was best not to adopt her (we will continue to foster).

I am working on the Dainty Designs peasant dress at the moment.
We still have the credit to use for our trip to Florida we have to take before Aug (think we are shooting for April or May)
Hannah still isn't walking, so I have not made any clothes for her yet.
How awesome it would be to say it's our celebration trip that Hannah is walking!!!! MRI, bloodwork, more drs- I give up. No one knows why she has low muscle tone (we know the hyperflexibility is from me, but accentuated by the low tone)
OT,PT,Speech, EI teacher are helping her learn how to control muscles.

Okay- back to the machine!! I PROMISE photos soon!!
 

Thank you for the kind comment on the dress. I'm sorry you didn't get to see Belle too!

In my opinion they make it WAY too hard to find specific characters, especially at the hard ticketed parties where you pay extra just to be there to see them!

We did the party twice. The first time we were looking for Snow White and got a huge runaround. The second night we were looking for Belle and almost didn't find her. They were nice and let us wait in the hallway until they swapped out and she subbed in. But I think they were hesitant to do that even.

I hope you had a great time at the rest of the party! We were there the 14th and 16th.

We were there on the 12th and we did have a good time. My only problem with this trip... it was just too short. :sad2:We only had 3 actual Disney days and it was too much crammed in those days. Our next trip in July we are going for 2 weeks:woohoo:

I think I am finally caught up! Everyone sure has been busy, there are a lot of beautiful things posted. I think I have only posted here once since we got back from our trip in November. Things have been hectic here. December started out very rough. We had to put our pug to sleep in early Dec. She was 13 and everything started failing at once for her. I really miss her and find myself still looking for her. Yesterday I was on my way out and had a brief thought that I should let the dog out before I go :sad2: It will take a while but we're getting there.
DS,DDIL and the babies were home for Christmas. I did sew a little, I made an audrey skirt for Christmas and I managed to make my first Feliz!

Hi Everyone!!

So who all has snow?

Anyone have a Joann's coupon that starts tomorrow???? wendya2J@comcast.net I'd appreciate it!!

Thanks, Wendy

We have snow!! :cold: Woke up this morning with about 2inches of snow. As for the coupons I don't seem to get any emailed anymore since I started receving the flyers in the mail but if I do get one to pop up I will email it to you.

Once the mice are done at your house, can you send them over here? LOL We got our luggage tags this week too and it stressd me out a little! We have 3 weeks from yesterday till we leave and I have yet to finish one outfit! Plus, we close on our new house Wednesday. And, I ran out of elastic, so I had to stop midway through an outfit yesterday!

No snow here. We had a dusting when we woke up yesterday, but it is gone now. We may get snow on Tuesday, but who knows!
I wish I had a coupon to send you, but mine is not online, it is from the circluar. Maybe they will have some in store, they had a ton last week in the store that ended yesterday.
 
Hey Guys

DH said he would get me some new hoops if I wanted for my PE 770 for my bday. Do you think its worth it? What would you suggest? Should I get a 4x4 and sell my 270D or what exactly is a multiposition hoop, and would that be helpful? There are times I want to put wording under a design but dont feel like rehooping....anyone else have different hoops for their machine?:thumbsup2

Did you ask about a repositionable hoop once upon a time? Get any answers? I've been wondering the same thing, and since page 1 says feel free to repost unanswered questions. . . . .

May I have you attention. ::yes::

Wendy and I would like to know if anyone has a repositionable hoop, and if so, do you like it?

Color me :o if someone answered and I missed it.

I've wondered the same thing, I don't really understand the dynamics though and they seem too expensive for me to just buy n' try. I'm curious if anyone has one too. Are you talking about the "magna" hoops? I've always wondered how the magnets could be strong enough and if they were, how would they not interfere with the machine mechanics?
 
With 1 month, 2 weeks and 2 days to go, perhaps I should start to think about customs? What do you think? I need to make new customs for DD, DM and myself that go with the pirate theme of the boys shirts. I also plan to just make a single new Star Wars shirt for mom, then mickey fantasmic for the night we go there.

I need something for she and I to wear that will kinda match DS AK shirt, if I can find it and it still fits him. He is growing like a weed.

THANK YOU, friends for just reading and being supportive of our problems with my ex and seeing DD. He has money like you don't know, serious old money, named money, Palm Beach county money. So there is very little I can do but be there for DD, let her know how much we all love her and try to make her a better person and make good choices. I just really had to vent and appreciate your kind words.:hug:
 
Hi Everyone!

Here is the shirt I made for Wendy's Big Give - Jenny is making a skirt to match it!!! Its always fun to work together!!

Are you guys down south getting snow yet?

Since posting the question I've had to put my machine in time out for misbehavior. I have an OLD machine, and I've gone back and forth a zillion times about getting a new one. I'm tempted to get the Brother 770 that everyone likes and is fairly cheap, but just don't know if I'd use it enough to justify even a cheap one.

That shirt is great. The design would be so perfect for just about any age -- even the tweens and teens that are always so hard to sew for. I love it.

We have about 8" on the ground (Saratoga County, upstate New York). My car and son are leaving tomorrow to drive to NYC and then to Rhode Island for a few days. I'd appreciate having the storm I've been hearing rumblings about stay away from the coast. :thumbsup2

I want to make an applique shirt for my 2 nieces using the minnie head with a bow. Where does one get sa pattern for this? I don't have a fancy machine so I will be hand appliquing it.

Thanks for your help

If you look on page 1 there is information about the photobucket account, and there is definitely a template for a Mickey head in there. I'm not sure if there is a Minnie with a bow. You can also do a search for coloring book pages and usually get something good to trace. For my dd's shirt I just did the Mickey head and made a real bow out of ribbon and attached it with a snap (so it could be removed for washing).
 
Hi Everyone!

Here is the shirt I made for Wendy's Big Give - Jenny is making a skirt to match it!!! Its always fun to work together!!

Are you guys down south getting snow yet?

So far...the radar says we have been having snow/sleet for the past hour and a half...but so far nothing has hit the ground here in the Atlanta suburb of Monroe.. I'm so hoping it stays this way...even though I know it won't!

(here in the south...we are all stocked up on milk and bread...)
 
I found a code for Jo-Ann's.
40% off. BPE365 It says it's good until 12-31-2011, so hold onto it if you can't use it now.
If anyone uses it, please let me know if it's valid. Thanks:thumbsup2
