When you Are making a patchwork twirl- do you topstitch your layers?

 

[mommy2mrb]

Hi Everyone!

Ugh - what a day!! I thought I would get to pick up my new serger and get to work - NOT!!!

So, we get a call around 2:30 from our cousin asking if we can take the 3 kids so she can take her older son to the hospital. He had gone to the ER yesterday with a very swollen hand. Matt is 17, and thought maybe he broke it punching his friend in the elbow. Well, no break. So they gave him a bunch of antibiotics and sent him home telling them to go to the dr's office the next day. So the dr got them in a 2pm, and sent them directly to the ER. This time instead of the local hospital, they took him to my hospital (duPont) and they admitted him and put him on IV antibiotics. He is in isolation because they dont know what kind of infection he has, but they drew lines on his arm (like those snakebite shows) so they can see if the redness and swelling goes down!! Poor guy!!!

Tomorrow Billy is going to watch the 3 kids (that should be good - wish I could be a fly on the wall) hahaha!!! And we will visit Matt and eat dinner together at the IHOP across the street(free pancake day tomorrow). Whew - hopefully the swelling will go down and he will be discharged in a few days!!!

Say a prayer for my guy if you can!!

definately will keep him in our prayers...hope they can find out what the infection is!
and for Billy tomorrow too! sounds like he will earn his free pancakes tomorrow

When you Are making a patchwork twirl- do you topstitch your layers?

I think I normally do, but since I serge my seams I only topstitch on one side of each square. On these (and other things), I mostly just topstitch for seam reenforcement (sp??). I figure with the stitch, serge and topstitch stuff should stay together!

Sending Prayers up Wendy!

You guys are so talented, I love watching what you make. I have gotten the "bug" and now have 21 tye dye mickey shirts, and 7 more Simply Sweets to finish up by March 28, and no days off! I am nuts! And then I bought more fabric today but it is cute!

For Animal Kingdom! I am making it into two dresses for two adorable identical twins, 5 years old. What fabric should I put with it? Or should I just make pillow case dresses?

Also got this for Sea World:

What do you think would look cute with this?

Where did you find the zebra fabric? It's adorable!

Prayer said. I know as well as you do he is in the best place. I was in AI for 3 months at the age of 15 for rehab after my open heart surgery. I was in section 2B.

Lori in East Podunk

Thanks! I found it in a little store in Ruston, LA the Fabric Store. What would you do with it?

 

[Ericandjenng]

Hi Ladies (and Gentleman). Sorry I got behind on the thread--but I got the tees done for a Big Give (Yeah! My first!).

I took a quick glance and the pics I saw look FANTASTIC. Can't wait to see more!

 

[VBAndrea]

This one I made for a Big Give. I took the Simply Sweet and added on sleeves, sort of. I took a rectangular piece of fabric, made a caseing on the top and bottom, put in elastic, then sewed it into the sides of the SS. This one is my favorite Jasmine I've done. (Easy Fit pants)

Just have to quote this one as it's one of my all time favorites! The fabric is TDF. I'd be too scared to sew on something like that.

Gianna was a mermaid for Halloween 2 years ago. We made this from a commercial pattern, but it was fairly easy to do. The hard part was getting our dog to wear his lobster costume!

That's really pretty -- I've not seen that pattern at all. at your lobster dog!

This is the Jasmine I did for a Big Give. I guess it was ok, I know they recieved it, but the girl got sick again, and mom wasn't able to finish her TR, so I don't know if it got worn.

The top is a modified Simply Sweet and the pants are Easy Fits with leg elastic, I don't think the pic goes down far enough to see that. The sparkly fabric wasn't itchy, it was softer than it looks.

That is gorgeous! I don't recall ever seeing that photo in the past. So glad you posted it.

Keeping Matt in my thoughts. At least the infection was caught right away. My sister ended up in ICU with renal failure for over a week with an infection that wouldn't go away (it wasn't caught right away and was actually still a mystery as to why she ended up with sepsis).

BTW, I am almost done with Kade's Big Give. I so am hoping to finish today and get pictures up tonight. It's been taking much longer than anticipated but I'm very pleased with the results. I hate cutting things so close to the deadline and refuse to sign up for any more gives until this one is mailed! (Never mind that I have a couple of small things in mind for a current give that's posted!).

You guys are so talented, I love watching what you make. I have gotten the "bug" and now have 21 tye dye mickey shirts, and 7 more Simply Sweets to finish up by March 28, and no days off! I am nuts! And then I bought more fabric today but it is cute!

Also got this for Sea World:

I love both fabrics! Pillow case dresses would be cute for the zebra if dresses are required. I think a variation of a SS top and pants with the zebra in ruffle trim would look great, but that certainly is not a dress.

When you Are making a patchwork twirl- do you topstitch your layers?

I do just as Jessica does -- I topstitch the serged edge on each square and then I top stitch once I sew all the layers together too -- so I topstitch both vertically and horizontally.

You guys are gonna get tired of me, since I finally figured out the pic thing.
This is a tink simply sweet that I made for my daughters third bday and for a trip to disney on ice.

This one is for my niece to wear to the show. I made them both shorter than a dress so I still need to finish a pair of ruffled jeans for both of them
thanks for looking

Just popping in for a sec, but I LOVE both of those! dd's favorites are Tink and Ariel so she would have a conniption fit if she saw them.

I think I saw an Ariel outfit that was amazing. I'm sure of it. I'll just have to look again after my morning errands.

 

[RubberDuckyRanch]

Finished the girls Seuss skirts. Pics on FB for now. Going back to bed. Girls just left for school. Love the Tink & Ariel tops!

My son goes to a Special Pre-school for kids with Autism and PDD-NOS (which is what DS has) for March. They have March Madness where they do all kinds of little things for the kids.

today is National Pig Day and they were supposed to wear something pink. Well I can tell you DS has nothing pink (DH would freak) so I made J a Hamm shirt last night.

Here are some pictures of him. He was not being very cooperative this morning

and here is a better view of the shirt. Pardon the weird look.

 

[RubberDuckyRanch]

One quick ? The appliqué I made of Hermione for Juliet. Should I list that on my etsy? It is too detailed for anything smaller than a 6 x 10. So I can only offer it in that size. What do you think?

OK, there is LOTS and LOTS of stuff that I NEED to quote, but just popping in for a minute and HAD to comment on this one! LOVE IT!!!!

The outfit is gorgeous, and I hope it was worn even though Mom wasn't able to finish her trip report and let you know.

As I was reading your post I was thinking to myself, what's more fun, sewing or buying fabric, and then I realzied the answer is a no brainer!

I won't be there then, but wanted to alert you to save your pennies for the next 28 days -- Mickey ice creams have gone up to $3.50!!!

Great shirt and what a clever way to work in pink. It reminds me of when my older son was in nursery school, a zillion years ago, and he had to wear purple.

These are seriously cute. I love that Flounder is peeking out of the skirt.

Quick question. Is there any way to tell the stitch count of a PES file? Should my machine tell me? I have a Brother.

 

[Granna4679]

Wow...hopelessly behind on this thread at the moment. I wanted to comment on a few and then I will go back and catch up some more.

Purple Ears - Love the aprons and jewelry bags for Big Give. Love the unique ideas.

dianemom2 - The capes are great. I need to make my DGDs some of those...they are always wanting to be "super" something!

Kstgelais4 - the doll and blanket turned out so cute, and I REALLY LOVE the monkey pjs.

Tricia - the music outfit is adorable. When my oldest daughter was in her younger teenage years, she loved piano and everything music. We did her room all in black/white/red and music notes. It was really a unique room and she loved it.

Everything posted has been great. Ok...back to catch up on the last 10 pages or so now.

 

[cogero]

Yes there is. I am at work and not near my machines. I believe you can hit the settings button and it will tell you.

I know for my SE 400 there are instructions in the book how to do it.

Oh Wendy. Saying prayers for your family.
