Thank you all for the nice comments on my horses. There will plenty more horses to come! My dd was so disappointed b/c she got to wear new shirts three days in a row and was expecting a new one again on the 4th day. Marathon is none too swift getting my order sent out this time so the horses are on hiatus.

Here you go:

She had a good sale last week. 1/2 off on all her designs. I spent quite a bit more than I should have! But I love collecting designs. At least my collection doesn't take up too much space and it doesn't need to be dusted

Thanks -- I didn't look on FB b/c I'm not a huge fan of FB. I'm just perusing right now and bookmarking sites for future reference. I still have 20 more designs to do that I already purchased. I'm just waiting on my Marathon order. They were so quick last time and it's been 5 days now. I was absolutely expecting to have my thread by now.

Here are some baby gifts that I finally got done. I actually have another Marie stashed somewhere to go with the second onesie, I just can't find it!

These are not for twins-two separate families although I have a friend whose daughter is having twin girls and I'm tempted to send them to her instead, lol.

I love those! I think a set of twins would look adorable in them -- just make another set!

Has anyone ever made Carlac's bowling shirt without lining it? I want to make a couple for my boys this summer, but I'd like to not line it so they're cooler. Is it absolutely necessary?

I see you already got your answers and details from Tricia. I too make mine without a lining. I've done it with a lining as well, but I really don't understand the purpose of it and opt to do them all without linings now.

Hey everyone. There is no way in the world I would be able to quote everything since I have been off for 2 weeks. We had a tragedy in my DH's family and I have been trying to deal, cope and come to terms with what happened.
Must say though I love EVERYTHING!! The help on the twirl skirts was awesome can't wait to try to make one of those!
Congrats Froggy!! How awesome that is for your family!!
Haven't sewn anything since Momma's Day so I guess I have to get back on track now.
Hope everyone has an absolutely fantastic Memorial Day celebration.

I am sorry to hear you've had a tough time recently. I hope things get better for you.

Anita~ sorry to hear about your FB account what a pain in the neck!

Wyomningmomof6 ~ I love your Monsters dress, I have that fabric and I was wondering what to do with it. Do you have any objections if I case it for my Grandaughter?

So much great stuff posted lately!

Here's some things I did recently for a Big Give.

Okay totally inlove with this dress idea, can you tell me where did you get your pattern from?

What a great execution of the step sisters. I keep seeing them on clothing on this board and think I'll have to add Park Fare to my list of must-dos for next time.

They look grand. What a great variety of fabric you used. I especially like the music staff, the flames and the doggies. Lucky GKTW.

This dress is SO adorable!

The baby back carrier is great (I may have the same sheet set), but I really, really like your daughter on her stomach. Can't remember what she was wearing but the face is precious.

Aw, thank you!

These are not for twins-two separate families although I have a friend whose daughter is having twin girls and I'm tempted to send them to her instead, lol.

Very cute!

Your daughter is just TOOOO cute!!! I love her little outfit!!

Heather (froufrou by Heathersue) has a bunch of Star Wars designs, you might find something else you like there.

Thank you! I will check out Heathersue's SW stuff!

Great job on the baby carrier. But I must say....I really, really like the dress on your DD. That huge bow in the back just makes the outfit. Sooo cute!

And I wanted to comment on DigitalbyDesign. Her designs are really good. I have quite a few of them and they always stitch out really nice. I don't have any advise on the other designer. I haven't used any of hers.

Thank you for the info!

Let me start by saying I love all the beautiful work you ladies do. I am very new to sewing and have been following for a while. We have a while before our DW trip and I am wanting to make some tshirts for us.
My dd has Aspergers and stays in stroller for most of the busy parts of the day for multiple reasons. She also has an occasional meltdown and we get stared at a lot.

My 'idea' is to cut a Mickey silouette out of the puzzle fabric and applique it onto a tshirt. I have no idea how to do this. I have looked and see that some do a patch and then sew that on.
If I just cut the Mickey and use pellon can I just sew around it. Will it fray. I've never used pellon and not top stitched it. What stitch do I use? I have a Brother with 10 or so stitch designs. I am saving for a new machine but can't decide if I need a serger and/or embroidery too. (sorry tangent)

Thanks for the help. I hope I'm good enough to join in and show my stuff sooner rather than later!

I don't know about hand applique since I've never really done that. Too bad you don't do machine applique. Frou Frou by Heathersue has a really cute autism awareness puzzle piece Mickey. I made one for my sister and her husband and their son. My little nephew is autistic and he gets looks when he acts differently. Hopefully somebody else can answer your question about using the puzzle piece fabric.

On the first page is a tutorial on how to hand applique. It is very good and easy to follow, but I'm still new to it so I keep it on the computer and look at it while stitching the applique.

I would see if you can find some puzzle fabric. That would probably be the easiest. Then you can just cut out the Mickey Head shape and stitch it on. I'm so new I have no idea what Pellon is. I use tear away stabelizer as I got a good deal on it.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments about the Monsters Inc outfits and the Marie onesies!

Love the Monsters outfits. How cute is that dress!!! Where did you find the Monsters, Inc. fabric on the dress?

.

I found it on ebay-luckily I didn't pay an outrageous price!

Wyomningmomof6 ~ I love your Monsters dress, I have that fabric and I was wondering what to do with it. Do you have any objections if I case it for my Grandaughter?

Case away! I'm actually flattered-I don't think I've ever been cased before, lol.

Okay totally inlove with this dress idea, can you tell me where did you get your pattern from?

It's the Simply Sweet by CarlaC-very versatile pattern!

Wow! You were busy! Those are fantastic! I was thinking about doing some pillowcases between Gives but I think I better get caught up around my house first!

This is what I would suggest, too. Good luck with it!

 

[effervescent]

Wow! The items you made for the Gives are amazing! The outfits for Alison look great too.

Thank you! I'm grateful to have such a good outlet for my creativity.

Thanks everyone for the kind words and prayers. It was just a shock since he left behind my 2 small nieces and nephew.

I'm so sorry about your loss. My prayers are with you and your family and of course his small children.

Good Morning,

I have been lurking around this board for quite some time and have been so inspired by the beautiful clothing that I have seen. I am trying to teach myself how to sew. I got an inexpensive Brother machine and so far have made two skirts and a Tink quilt for my DD4. We are taking my DD for her first trip to Disney in October and I would love to be able to make some Disney clothes for her for our trip. I'm open for any tips, suggestions anything for a beginer sewer like myself. So far I have been searching UTube for how to sew videos and following along as I can. If I can figure out how to post a picture of what I made so far I will try. I look foward to learning as much as I can from you. Thank you.

I believe there are directions on the first page. Now I have done this is some time, but you need heat and bond lite. Take your pattern and draw it on the heat and bond. Peel the opposite side you've drawn on, off. (it's like a sandwich - a bond sandwiched inbetween a paper). Then press according to directions, the peice with the drawing on it. I think you let it cool, cut out your pattern and peel the back off. Lay it on your fabric, and heat it again. Then you'll do a satin stitch over the ends of your fabric. A satin stitch is a very close zig zag stitch. You might want to practice a little to get the width and closeness that you want.

Does that help?
