thanks baby nala for the applique planet info, turns out I had them book marked, I just havent searched the site from a-z.

To brother pe 770 owners: I know the machine has 6 built in "keyboard fonts"
and I know i would need software to join other font files together to make words. It turns out I cannot figure out stitchera and have not purchased PED or anything like that.
I've done a short search to see if brother ( or any PES) has keyboard font cards available and I have not had luck. Does anyone know where to buy keyboard font cards for the brother pe 770?tia
 
Thanks for sharing that site -- she has nice prices!!!



I also forgot to mention I bought two off of etsy but bought them just recently so they are not relisted yet. One was a set from AZembroidery that is NOT applique, but is not a heavy fill either. I will watch if she relists and post the link to. I also bought one from DBembroidery that is an applique and it looks fairly similar to this one:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/6690862...e=6&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade

Just found this (this is the one I just bought from etsy but it appears she has her own site):
http://www.dbembroiderydesigns.com/item_109/Horse-Applique-design.htm

And this is what I bought from etsy but I did NOT buy a cd as is listed here -- I purchased the downloaded version:
http://cgi.ebay.com/FLOWER-HORSES-3...066?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a661698a2

Hope that helps. If I find anything else that is good I will post. And please let me know if you come across anything as well. My dd is 7y/o and will still do mildly cutsie, but she is so into Bella Sara now -- My Little Pony is a thing of the past.
Thanks these are better than any of the ones I have found. I will let her look at them to see if she wants them.

Maybe I got it right this time. Shorts and tshirt.
 
I'm scannig quickly trying to get caught up after vacation, and when I saw the picture (without seeing you posted it) I thought, "Sally should use that for a Jasmine outfit"!

Does Kirsta mind shirring? I wonder if you could just make the back wider and shirr it? Maybe with elastic in the waist too?
!

Oh that is a good idea! She doesn't mind shirring, and might prefer it. She has a "bit" of a belly and pushing everything underneath it. I think your idea might work great!

QUESTION

I have been looking at skirts like this
il_570xN.236769444.jpg

Picture borrowed from Etsy (if it is yours thank you so much)

I am interested in how it is created, not this exact skirt or to replicate someone else's design exactly. I just want to know what to do to put the patches on so they don't fray and become a mess.

Thank you for any help you can provide.


P.S. Thank you to the lady who suggested going back to #23 for thanksgiving designs!

Oh I love this outfit! And that fabric! I think the idea is for the fabric to fray. Sort of look like an old quilt. But if you don't want that, I'd do a satin stitch to cover it up.

My son has had a VERY tuff year. He has done fine with his school work but has had some health issues. He has a male teacher who has been wonderful. He has watched out for him and called me and kept me informed on how he is doing without making a big deal out of it with both my son and his classmates. This has made things sooooo much easier for my son. I want to do something nice for him but I am drawing blank. If it was a woman I would make her a nice purse and fill it with school supplies or something. I can not think of a thing for a man. Pleeeeeeease HELP :sad2::headache::scared1: I am begging. Thank you everyone in advance. oh and did I meantion next week is the end of school :scared1::scared1::scared1:!!!!

I just bought the magazine SEW NEWS and it has a great tie roll up, if you were looking for something to make.
 
There are way too many things for me to quote. Everything is awesome!!!

We got back from our Disney trip on May 7th. We had an amazing time and I received a lot of compliments on DD's dresses and DS's shirts! We also spent nearly 7 hours at Kennedy Space Center on April 29th (the day before our Disney trip began) waiting for the space shuttle Endeavour to launch, only to be told it was delayed. When they announced the new launch date was May 16th, I told my DH that I wanted to make the trip again. It's about an 8 hour drive from us. My DH ended up having to work, so I took my two kids (ages 5 and 2) down by myself! We drove down the day before and played on the beach. My kids were awesome, even though we had to be at the Visitor's Center the next morning by 2:30 am! I was disappointed that we didn't get to see much of the shuttle, due to the clouds, though. As soon as it launched, we drove back home. Despite not getting much sleep within those 48 hours and a long drive, it was an awesome experience!!!

Once I finally get caught up on my sleep, I have a few Disney outfits to make for a friend, who is going the first week of June. It makes me want to start planning another trip!

In addition to other ideas suggested, how about a lunch bag with a matching placement/napkin set? I am not sure if teachers bring their lunches to school? Around here, usually only the high schools have cafeterias so elementary and middle school teachers will likely need to bring their lunches.

Love this dress as well! I'm a sucker for black and white. The lego figure is very cute and looks very fitting on the polo shirt.


Love the dress, I purchased both of those patterns to make dresses for my daughters and grandaughter and haven't had a minute to even get one cut out! The polo is great! I love that you were able to create something for your DH.

That dress came out really nice. I think the shorter length will be OK. Your little lego guy is great. I know I would not have had the patience to make the eyes and mouth by hand - they look good. It looks perfect on that shirt.

Thanks for the positive comments. I really like the Jamie dress pattern - it is easy to work with and the finished product looks great. I was happy to have a chance to make something for DH - he is a huge Lego fan! I actually made him 2 shirts so at least he will have something special for our trip to "the fifth theme park" aka the Lego Store at DTD!

You did a good job on the set. I like the stripes!

Sounds like you had a great time. Too bad you didn't get to see much of the shuttle. We debated going to see a launch one year but we thought the odds of it being delayed was too high. Of course that was the time they launched on the scheduled day! We tried to look for shuttle at Disney World but we were given the wrong directions so we looked the wrong way!

Hopefully you will get a chance to plan another trip soon!
 
We got to ride the Star Wars ride today it officially opens the 20th they wont let you take any pictures yet let me say it was awsome
 
I made another Jamie dress over the last few days. I had this polka dot material for quite some time and I thought Jamie's retro look was just the right thing for it. Unfortunately it is a little shorter than planned because I managed to get a 4" rip in the fabric when I was taking a few stitches out. The shorter skirt may work out a little bit better for the retro look anyway.

Another project in the last week was to scale down the Lego Minifig from a Big Give bag to something that DH would wear. He liked the one I did for the Give but he wanted something a little bit more suitable for a grown up (i.e., smaller). So with some work back on the drawing board, here it is:

th_MiniFigShirt.jpg

WOW!!! You are on a roll with the Jaimie!!! I love this one too!!! Really really pretty!!! I haven't actually worn my Jaimie dress yet, I'm trying to find a little jacket or sweater to wear with it.

The Lego shirt is so cute!!!! Love that little guy!

I am having a SUPER hard time about us not going this year. This is the first year in quite awhile. In fact, I just texted my husband this morning telling him I NEED TO GO TO DISNEY!!!!!! Let me know if you ever run across cheap flights. ;) You seem to be good at that.

Did you guys have a good time?


We had SUCH a good time!!!! Seriously, I think it was one of our most enjoyable trips ever. And, we didn't even go to a Disney park! :scared1: We are planning our big family trip next May. We are hoping to surprise my SIL Barbara (the one with Stage 4 breast cancer) with a special hotel. shhh... it's a secret! Let's just say, she wants to go to Hawaii, so Corey had an idea about the perfect Disney hotel for her (the Poly) We are hoping to get enough money around to pay for at least a few nights for them. Corey has already said he will pay for one night. He's such a great kid.

If I see any cheap plane tickets, I'll let you know!

Everyone has taken most of my ideas! Corey (my almost 19 year old son) really loves messenger bags. He wants me to make him a cover for his Nook (does the teacher have an e-reader?), a laptop case and he wanted me to make him a messenger bag to hold his laptop too. Actually, Corey has a longer list for me than the girls!

Well, it seems almost all my answers have been used...LOL. I would also say one of those super duper key fobs are a great idea too. Is there a favorite sports team of his? Maybe a coffee cozy, key fob etc in those colors, along with a gift certificate somewhere would be nice.


(this year all our teachers were at best...only so - so. Glad to hear there are great teachers out there! It seems at our school the only requirements for a special needs teacher is to be condescending, arrogant and not be able to listen!)


Nini

Jeanne, I'm sorry you had such bad teacher experiences this year! :hug:

Okay I can not find anything I am trying to find but I did find this pattern for an E-Reader. I saw that someone else was looking for a pattern and this one is free. It even gives directions for adding and embroideried design.

I can't wait to see what you make!!!!!!

We were in Orlando and tried to see it, but it was much too cloudy. When we were down last year, Brian was able to see it.

How cool!!! I was hoping it would be open when Corey went, but it wasn't yet.
 
Morning everyone. I am desperately trying to finish 2 gives. MY marathon order just arrived. so I am hoping as soon as I get home from work I can finish the 3 shirts left to do.

I have to say I love Marathon.My order came 1 day after placing it with regular shipping.

I als seriously need to start sewing for our August trip it is officially 99 days away.

I'm glad you guys had such a good time. What all did you do?
What a super nice surprise and that is so amazing that your son wants to pay for a night himself!!! How is Barbara doing?:confused3
 
Hopefully I can get this to post right...

I started this quilt as a class project, didn't like the way it was going and quit. Once I got my embroidery machine, I ripped out all the applique and started again with my machine.

I put it on the long arm and had major problems with the thread. It kept breaking every few inches. So, after it was finished, I ripped out the stitches to redo. Fast forward to a year later, and I FINALLY finished the quilting and the binding. I was planning on giving it to a casual friend. (one of the moms at therapy) But I really like the way it turned out.

So my question is...should I get mom a different baby gift and sell this one? Or go with my original plan and give this as a gift?
