I'm sure it can be re-sized and used for many, many things.
 
I have been lurking enjoying everyone's stuff. I have totally forgotten how to post pics. I have some stuff I would like to share but havent a clue how to post photos. I did it once about a year ago, but my brain is so full I cant remember stuff anymore. I have a small collection of Disney purses I have made and am looking forward to making girly Disney themed clothes. Have 3 grandsons and am finally getting a granddaughter next month!! Love all the stuff you all share. I cant keep up with reading all the posts tho, you all are too fast for me, lol.

So if someone could tutor me on how to post pics I would love to share. Thank you
 
:drive: Quick drive by... Haven't sewed in a couple days, not that I havne't wanted to. Just felt like I needed to do some yard work and cleaning. It looks like someone dumped a bottle of yellow baby powder in my living room and dining/play room.

Anyway.. Got two new materials to play with. The scooby doo I plan to make the little ones either easy fits or bowling shirts. I just need to figure out what color(s) to use to make it pop. The Minnie I am going to make my mom a toiletry bag with and use my red/white polka dot material with. Maybe with her name or initial on it.;) Depends on if my friend thinks we can...

Hi Tami - check out the first post of this thread I am pretty sure there are instructions there for how to post pictures and even multiy quote....if you you are still stuck I am sure we canhelp you figure it out. We love to see pictures of everyones work....
 
I just had an awesome phone call with a friend in Australia who will be heading to her fabric store near her to see what they have for Disney Fabric. if it's anything like what they are offering on Ebay Australia, I might be getting some great stuff.

I'm going to trade her some Princess and The Frog stuff for her girls. I wonder if my Aunt in Germany can get some different fabric also.
 
Another day downpirate: I even booked the Pirates League and DD is all excited that they added the Mermaid package again.:dance3:

I did the Mickey Pirate on felt but not a fan of doing this way. It seemed like more work in the end and my cutting abilities around the design were very limited... it almost looked like my 3 year old cut it:rotfl:

And I have been playing around with Photobucket

Cute! Thanks for sharing -- might be fun to do some of those for BG's.

oooohhhh(insert little green aliens)

Thanks for Sharing.....

So love the Easter dress very precious. Can't quote right now at work and should be doing something they call "My Job" anyone heard of such a thing....
Speaking of jobs, a place I used to work at prior to having children is hiring again full time -- I actually got released b/c I went part time and they couldn't find a job sharer for me. We really need the money and it's very tempting to apply but I don't think I can bare to leave my kids and work full time -- I may apply offering a job share and see if it gets me anywhere this time. I loved working there, but it's just tough working full time with kids.

Look on Teresa's first post on page 1 as that's where the instructions are for posting pics.

Off to do my favorite!:laundy:
I have a dark kitchen table and dusted it yesterday late morning and by dinner it was yellow again. I actually have the heat on today though!!! Then again, I only had upstairs windows open yesterday so how the downstairs became yellow is beyond me -- that stuff travels fast! I also have poison ivy on my leg from the backyard -- grrr! My dh is immune to it but we'd be living in a jungle forest of it if I waited for him to pull it up (granted, he works full time so I can't expect him to do it).

Your friend thinks you can add names to toiletry bags -- I never replied to your e-mail but my machine can do names with the fonts it came with -- I can not put Disney fonts together to make names -- I'd need a program for that which I don't have (I'd also need a brain to figure it out -- don't have that either). I say we embroider what we can while you're over here and then some time maybe you can teach me zippers and bag construction at your house (if that's easier for you with the kids since Jonathon is only half-day for school). Or we can applique something onto the fabric and put an initial in the that -- like a heart, shape, Mickey head -- whatever.
 
First of all, I want to say that I have been lurking here for some time and I wanted to tell everyone that they are so very talented! I have sewn on and off for a few years (I never seem to have the time to do it), but one of my resolutions for this year is to sew more often. I am sad that I found this board after we had gone to Disney, but I will be more prepared for the next time we go.

My question for you ladies is this: my dd is working on the pioneers at school and they will be going to a living history museum in 2 weeks. Naturally, she wants me to make her something to wear for the event. I do not want the outfit to look to much like a costume, so I was thinking that I would choose either the portrait peasant dress or the molly peasant dress from YCMT. If you were to purchase only 1 pattern, which one would it be?

Many thanks in advance!

Beth that is very cute and it is sweet that it is made with her great grandma's fabric.

What a great idea! I hope you are able to get some really cool fabrics! Maybe they get some of the Asian Disney fabrics down under.

Those are adorable! Great that you have another day done! I just finished t-shirts for a customer who booked the mermaid package. I'll post a picture.

Liisa

I am not familiar with the Molly pattern but I think that the portrait peasant would be just perfect. Make a little bit on the long side and add an apron or pinafore. Then she will look just right for the field trip. Afterwards she can use the dress either as a dress or as a nightie.

Here are a couple of things that I have been working on. First up is a dress and capris. I just designed the new appliques. This is for the new movie Brave that is coming out in June. My little niece has seen the trailer and is very excited about it so I said I would make her something. I hadn't planned to work on it this week but I wanted to check out the appliques to make sure that they sewed out properly.

I think I would stick to the seafoamy green color to go with it. I also see a little Royal blue, but feel that from far away it wouldn't match as much.

:welcome: to the Dis! I would choose the Portrait Peasant Dress hands down from those two choices. Carla's patterns are wonderful. I also love the peasant dresses made by Create Kids Couture.
il_570xN.314627302.jpg

This is the pattern that I'm using for Natalie's Alice dress, and I'm adding a pinafore to it. I've made a few of their patterns and they are easy to use also. If you buy them through their website, they are cheaper than on YCMT. I can't wait to see what you've made! :)
 
Those pirate outfits are adorable. I just read abut the Pirate League and was considering it?!?!?

Love the appliques and outfits. SO cute!! I want an embroidery machine.:sad1:

Wanted to let all those involved in Allison's Pixie Dust Give (and anyone interested) that I finally completed her Trip Report!! Stop by when you can!! Allison's Make-A-Wish Completed Trip Report!

Thanks for making it special!
 
Thank you for your advice! I was leaning toward the portrait peasant dress, but wanted someone else's opinion before I made the leap and actually bought the pattern. I am looking forward to buying the pattern and working on more sewing this weekend!

I didn't see these the first time I posted! I love the Brave outfit Diane! Your digitizing is wonderful. :) I can't get excited about that movie though which is weird because I typically love Pixar :confused: The previews were just "eh" to me when I saw them in August at the D23 Expo. John Lasseter was so excited to present it though that it was almost contagious. The ovie poster they gave me is in the boys' room and they want to see it. Honestly though, I wasn't excited for Up! either and now it's one of my family's favorites. :thumbsup2

Funny that you can't get excited about the movie. I am so happy that Pixar finally has a girl protagonist. I am really looking forward to seeing the movie because of that. I hope it will be as good as the other Pixar movies. I have loved almost all of them!

BTW, my 6th grader did a biography report about Walt Disney. Tomorrow in class they are doing a "Wax" museum of their biography reports. It is so cute! The kids draw a button on the back of their hands with a marker. When you press the button, they give a 60 second presentation about the person they researched. My daughter has to dress up like Walt Disney. She is wearing a suit jacket and a Donald Duck shirt. She will put a stuff Mickey Mouse on her shoulder and is going to draw on a mustache with eye liner. She now knows so much about Walt Disney's life and keeps telling us trivia about him.:laughing:
 
help finding an embroidery design

I'm getting ready to do a dress for our vow renewal/anniversary party this summer and I'm having a hard time finding an embroidery design for it. I'm kinda doing a pinwheel theme and I'd love to embroider some pinwheels on my dress, but everything I'm finding is too big and/or too juvenile. I'd really love a corner type design that could handle being set on point with a much more subtle pinwheel (either a tiny one among some flowers or stylized). Have you girls seen anything? Google has failed me.
 
I just tried multi-quoting and was denied since the posts had links in them...I need to get to 10 posts before I include links in the my posts...boooooo

Anyways, just wanted to say that I love the pirate outfits and the Brave outfit. I cannot wait to see Brave! The whole fam cheered when we saw the preview, even DH is excited (very reluctant disney convert)

Anyway.. Got two new materials to play with. The scooby doo I plan to make the little ones either easy fits or bowling shirts. I just need to figure out what color(s) to use to make it pop. The Minnie I am going to make my mom a toiletry bag with and use my red/white polka dot material with. Maybe with her name or initial on it.;) Depends on if my friend thinks we can...

I think you can totally do an initial (maybe even doing an applique "by hand"). I can't wait to see what you make with the fun material.

I just want to say welcome. I see that your question has been answered. Given your location description, are you from Vancouver Island or somewhere near there?
