what happend to Caden's card shower thread that was on the BG???

 

[aboveH20]

made a crayon roll. its not perfect but its my first one. I then had to make another as my daughter wanted one and that was "boys material" so she didn't want that one

I agree, they're a bit harder than they look, but always good to get over the hump of the first one.

i've also got several pairs of shorts made i was suprised how easy these were to make

he's got dinner all down his t-shirt i think

Great job, and I love the Toy Story fabric in the first one.

and one more. i'm on a roll tonight

african dance costume

That's cool. I love the flowing twirliess of it.

I use the size A from Marathon. I just bought a gross of them. I have used them almost exclusively for the past year (except for a time when I ran out and tried winding my own! URGH is all I will say about that!)

Holey moley that's a lot of bobbins!!!

I just looked, too. He passed away. Keep looking further down on the list.

Alllllllright! We'll have to try to at least say hi at some point - I have no idea what your husband's conversation the last time did to Hunter, but I liked it (Hunter's attitude change) and need him to do it again! LOL!

Too funny, I have no idea either, but it doesn't surprise me. My DH is awesome with kids and one of the most patient people I know. He used to coach boys soccer and all the kids loved him!

oh...thank you, didn't think to look farther down....keeping his family in our prayers....

This is very cute and it LOOKS like the buttersflys took forever but just had to ask...What does the FSL stand for? (I know I am probably going to kick myself for asking...probably something obvious, huh?)

free standing lace

I love this TS fabric, never have seen it

I have no help to offer, sorry. Just wanted to say, I hope you get it figured out soon. I know the frustration of a machine that just won't cooperate![/QUOTE]

that is so sweet it made me smile

 

[MinnieVanMom]

Keep me in mind for the Sept dismeet. We are planning to be there (DH and I with his DSis and DBIL) Sept 24 - Oct 1. I will probably have to see if it works out for me to split from them for a little while though. We are staying at AK Lodge.

I am going to be in Paris again this year and then onto other areas of Europe. I have yet to meet anyone from the disboutique board.

I have two Joann's and both carry different fabrics so if I have to surrender my coupon at one store I will have to use my friend coupon at the next. I'm am sure I will walk out of the store with a $100 bill and will have no place to sotre the fabrics I buy!

You should not have to surrender your coupon at either store. My email said it was yours to keep and reuse as much as you want over the 3 days!

I just returned from a great week at WDW! So many beautiful creations, way TMTQ! But I am amazed again!

looks like we are going to be in WDW the same time....maybe we will run into each other....will have my LGMH on my bag!

 

[Blyssfull]

Hey Guys,

I know I've seen a lot of y'all posting about Joann's coupons. I got one in my email the other day that is 25% your entire order (including sale and non-sale items) and then there's one for a friend. I'll be glad to pass this a long for anyone if you want to send me your email.

I finished a Dumbo dress today. I think it turned out pretty nice and the applique is super cute!

It is really nice. Love the red and white stripes, very circusy.

I love the colors! The dress is so adorable!

 

[RubberDuckyRanch]

Dress looks great ! That's my Dumbo!!! still working on a few of the suggestions from my testers. Here is mine as a 6x10.

I just caught up on like 10+ pages. I updaed my Jessie design too and have a tester for that. I will re-stitch it today too. Hopefully I fixed what I didn't like and will list it tomorrow or Wednesday. Dumbo too.

 

[Tykatmadismomma]

I have a really good excuse to why I have not been on the board in so long, We MOVED from Georgia to Alabama, my hubby took a position with Goodyear.
We are finally starting to get settled.

I hope to start sewing again since I now have my very own sewing room now !!! I do need a desk or table I am debating on what will be best.

I repurposed the old entertainment center into a area for my Fabric and Sewing stuff so now everything can be put away.

Madi chose to wear her M dress with Peti for the first day at her new school.

I really hope to be more involved with the board from now on.

Some of my learning points:
1. I can get 3 names monogrammed in 1 5x7 hooping.
2. I try to keep the height of my monogramming right at .90 inches and no longer than 4 inches. That allows for the strip to be ironed/finished to 1 inch with room for a narrow seam on each side of the fabric.
3. You can vary the length of the finished key chain. Longer to fit as a wristlet and shorter to just be able to grab it with a few fingers. Play around with the lengths!
4. I do have some bright colored webbing but I am trying to stick to dark webbing -- it won't show dirt as easily.
5. To clamp on the key fob hardware I use a normal pair of pliers that I put 3m foam tape over the grooves -- it works great and the metal doesn't touch/scratch the key fob

Wow, thanks so much for the link and all the helpful info you also included. Very complete. Thanks!

At least you know what your projects are - I haven't even decided what I'm making! And I usually make customs for the kids for each day and shirts for most days for DH and I. Wow, I'm suddenly feeling a little overwhelmed!

I don't have specifics planned, just ideas, and such. We (7 of us) are going for 15 days and I want to make each (3) child an outfit per day and a shirt for the 4 adults for most days, and a tote bag for myself and my mom. Also hats for the kids, some of those cute burp clothes posted, a couple diaper changing pads, I feel like there's more, but I don't have the list in front of me at the moment.

I'm all about a meetup! We'll have to check plans a little closer to time and get something set up. Where are you staying? We're doing POR this year.

Cool!There is more of us going at the end of Sept. than I realized. We definately need to all meet up. We are staying at All Star Music. We have stayed at POFQ in the past and absolutely loved it. Wish we were staying there again this time, but we can stay a couple days longer if we stay at ASMu.

Miss my babies. Sorry to rattle on

Awwww. So sorry you have to be apart from them. Hope you get to see them soon.

I am all up for a Disney meet. We are staying at POFQ and my son and his family is staying at POR. (they are taking a teenage girl from church to help watch the Grand daughter, so I may actually get to ride this trip! Woo Hoo!)
Nini

Hope everyone is feeling better soon. Glad to hear they will have help so you can do some rides this time!

Thanks to everyone for the compliments on the Beauty and the Beast outfit.
WELUVDIZNE tHE "RIBBON" is just a piece of the material that i used I ironed the edges over about a quarter in, then cut the piece about 3 inches linger than needed, put heat n bond on the back, ironed it to the shirt then just stitched it really close to the edge of the fabric. After you have it stitche on rip the seam on both side put the ribbon in and just sew it back up on the inside of the shirt. Super easy. and no ruffles.

Thanks so much for the info. I appreciate it. Sounds very easy!

Consider yourself added to the list! This is gonna be great. I was so bummed about not being able to go to the one in January.


So, all of you going in Sept., are you doing the free dining? I have been tweaking my ADR list. I get to call on Thursday.
