[BabyRapunzel]

swooping through to say hello....we are off at the crack of dawn and I have a million things to do today

I am not bringing my laptop so probably wont access the DIS while we are away but I will post pics upon my return.

you can also feel free to add me on FB...I will prob post pics there through the week https://www.facebook.com/carolyn.w.jordan

Have a great week everyone...can't wait to see what y'all create while I am gone!

Have a great time!

 

[miprender]

and the outfits were a hit!!

Love the pictures. Looks like you all had a great time.

PrincessMickey ~ I am not sure of the difficulty level of the aprons, I am new to sewing and that is the most difficult thing I have done so far. The first one made my eyes cross, but the second came together a little more quickly. The sizing is crazy big. "Snow" wears an 8/10 and could have used the 5/6 pattern size and "Belle" wears a 5/6 and I made the 3/4 for her and it fits fine. All patterns are so wonky when it comes to sizing.

DM Thank you!! I am hoping to be as wonderful at this as you are one day.

Finished princess dress!

This came out cute!

Wow - thank you! :0) It wasn't that long ago that I was saying that about everyone here... very inspiring these Disbou are!

That princess dress is super cute! Did you hand applique the crown?

so much cuteness has been posted. I should add this thread to one of my subscribed threads so I don't get so far behind.

I know - it's so easy to fall behind... I always do good for a week or two, and then I just turn to mush.

Here's a couple of my latest, for those of you that don't follow my PTR and/or friends on FB (for those of you that are - sooooo sorry).

[nannye]

D,
I haven't decided anything yet.
I have yet to ask the owner of the janome if she will take 500 cash. Her asking price is 850 but if she has been trying to sell for a long time then she may.

Of course now I found someone selling a baby lock eac for $750

I think it is going to be none right now. I really can't afford such a big expense. Its just that I want it now since I know there is so much I want to make that's can use one for.

I still debate in my head. I have been saving some babysitting money and I have cash from selling things off that I no longer needed. The money was supposed to go for bills but I think I am going to keep some of it for the machine and just keep saving. I also wanted a serger but again the cheapest new one ie seen is 300 bucks. I found abused one for $200.

Of course my desk chair broke today and so it needs to be replaced tomorrow since I spend so much time at the computer especially editing photos, I need a good one and it's going to cost me!

What kind of Babylock?

Sorry that your chair broke! I hate when things like that happen.

I had a bad, bad day today. I stopped in Ross to pick up a new set of glasses for the kitchen. Then just I was checking out we found out that the set of glasses was missing two out of the 8 glasses in the box so I had to leave them behind. Then I went to Costco to pick up some stuff for the Jewish holidays that are coming up on Monday and the following week. While I was there I scratch the side of my car on a curb that stuck up really high but was where I couldn't see it. Then it turned out that I accidentally bought sour cream instead of cottage cheese. I didn't figure that out until I was 1/2 finished with making my kugels. So I had to run to the grocery store in the middle of baking. Then my dd came home all upset because some of her friends were excluding her from their Friday evening plans. I had to get her to calm down and help her figure out how to handle the situation productively. What a day! I'm ready to turn in and hope that tomorrow is better!!!!

It's true!!!! SHE LIVES!!!!

I was worried about you, because I haven't seen you in days in my PTR or anyone else's... Glad to see you're still OK.​

D~

Barely alive! I got finished with my big sewing project yesterday and was hoping to get caught up but had a bad headache all day. I was able to sleep thanks to some antihistamines But my h/a is now worse this morning Not yet a migraine, but I fear we're headed in that direction.

Thanks and ROFL... Actually - no Donalds were harmed in the making of that bag. His legs are actually my Duck Butt hat (seen below)... I inserted a hidden zipper into the lining, so I can still remove and wear my hat. His legs stick through 2 large button holes, so theoretically I could still use the bag if I was wearing the hat, because the lining would keep everything from falling out of the holes.

Even though I love my serger I would save up for the embroidery machine first. Sending that you can save up fast.

Sounds like you did have a bad day. I feel for you DD, that can be hard when they are excluded.

I think one of my DDs friends had a bday party last week that she wasn't invited to. I told my daughter I think it had more to do with me and that mom, because we had a run in during softball last spring and that might be why she wasn't invited.

Barely alive! I got finished with my big sewing project yesterday and was hoping to get caught up but had a bad headache all day. I was able to sleep thanks to some antihistamines But my h/a is now worse this morning Not yet a migraine, but I fear we're headed in that direction.

Oh no! I hope your headache is starting to feel better. My dd gets terrible headaches when she isn't well hydrated so maybe you should try and get in a lot of fluids to see if that helps????

When you are feeling better you'll have to post some pictures of what you finished.

Oh wow Diane! I sure hope that today is better for you!

D~

Thanks! I'm sure that today will be better!

I love the duck butt hat! That is so cute! One of dh's cousins wants me to make her a Donald Duck butt shirt. I've been trying to come up with a cute design for her.

Yesterday was definitely not a good day. I can only believe that today will be much better.

It is very hard when the kids are excluded from something. This was especially hard because my younger dd has been friends with 2 other girls for several years. In the past year, one of the girls has started excluding her from their activities but then brags to my daughter about what they did without her. It is really hard because we carpool to and from school with this family. Last night everything ended up working out ok but it wasn't before we had some tears and stressful moments.

My older dd had something very similar happen with a birthday party last winter. She didn't find out she wasn't invited until some of the girls posted pictures on FB. That was pretty hurtful!

I made one shirt for each of my girls this week. And they mostly, sort of liked it. One daughter told me it was pretty nice but very plain. The other one told me that it was a pretty good shirt and she'd probably wear it, maybe. I do have fabric to make them two more shirts but I'm not cutting into it until I see that they wear the first shirt that I made them. I used one of their favorite Abercrombie shirts for the pattern so they should like the style. I'll try and force them to put the shirts on so I can take a picture.

Hi Everyone!!

D - that donald duck bag is AWESOME!!!!!! I'd love to see an Eeyore bag or a Tigger bag someday ( :

Loving all the sewing - I just have not been in the groove at all. Unfortunately, I have been battling with some kind of GERD, gastro, asthma mix that just isnt clearing up. This week I had to have an ultrasound and a upper endoscopy - and if you know me, you know I am totally afraid of Dr's and stuff - this was my first time to ever be put to sleep!!! Anyways, I get to hear the results of stuff on Monday....hopefully its something simple!!! I feel like I missed the whole summer, was even really sick on vacation - bleck - I am SO DONE!!!!! Sorry to vent, I am just so at that point - trying to be positive though - and hey, it has been awesome for weight loss!!!

Also I would be so excited if someone would consider making the Jedi Robes for Noah's Big Give - these little kiddos would be THRILLED to pieces to receive these for gifts!!!! Please come and help??? Also could use just a shirt or 2 for big bro and big sis......If you havent joined the Big Give, you will have a GREAT time creating things for these wonderful families!!!!!! Thanks for considering!!

I went and got my new foot yesterday and am getting a serger for $50. He is cleaning it up and making sure everything works perfect and then will sit down with me to use it before I take it home. So awesome !

I hope you will be able to save up for a machine that helps you do what you want to do. I was fortunate when I got my 270D at less than $300 from Amazon. My serger was in the $200 range from Wal-mart and it has served me well.

I will be praying for you Wendy as you get your results on Monday. I totally get your feeling about losing your summer. I got sick 2 summers in a roll now (thankfully both times I recovered sufficiently to enjoy our end of summer trip - I think it's the pixie dust that helped me heal).

Sorry you've had such a rough summer. I just had an endoscopy last week too. It was my second one so I knew what to expect. I hope yours was easy. For me, compared to some of the other things I've had, it was really very minimal. I wish I'd known before hand because I would have reassured you that it wasn't scary or painful at all. I got the results from my endoscopy immediately after I woke up. The dr even gave me a copy of all the pictures he took. LOL!

Ok, here are some pictures. The first one is a kitty cat dress that I made for my niece. They just adopted a cat and she is nuts about cats right now. It is still damp from me washing off the placement markings so it looks a little funny.

This is the shirt that I made for my dd. I actually made two of them but neither girl is home right now and I could only find one of them.

I am kind of thinking that if my younger dd goes back to Disney with my SIL and BIL over winter break, I will add some kind of hidden Mickey snowflake design to the front. But for right now, it is staying plain.

 

[SallyfromDE]

Wow - thank you! :0) Donald Perfect Park Pack:

D~

As usual, great bags. Love the Donald, and I'm partial to the Fantasia Mickey. I've said for years I wanted to do Halloween as Fantasia Mick and the kids dress up as brooms. For some reason, they'd never go for it.

 

[BorkBorkBork]

Thanks and ROFL... Actually - no Donalds were harmed in the making of that bag. His legs are actually my Duck Butt hat (seen below)...

I missed quoting your post this morning....

Just save a little at a time... A serger is a good investment if you are going to be making lots of clothes.

And you can do with out an embroidery machine if you learn how to hand applique... I don't do anything with an embroidery machine... Unless I call on Marianne or Beth to help me out with something, but I try to never do that.

I love the duck butt hat! That is so cute! One of dh's cousins wants me to make her a Donald Duck butt shirt. I've been trying to come up with a cute design for her.

I know the Duck Butt hat is discontinued and not even available on Ebay - which is a bummer, I am very glad I got it when I did.

Does she want you to applique the butt on a shirt? Or does she want it 3-D?

It is very hard when the kids are excluded from something. This was especially hard because my younger dd has been friends with 2 other girls for several years. In the past year, one of the girls has started excluding her from their activities but then brags to my daughter about what they did without her. It is really hard because we carpool to and from school with this family. Last night everything ended up working out ok but it wasn't before we had some tears and stressful moments.

My older dd had something very similar happen with a birthday party last winter. She didn't find out she wasn't invited until some of the girls posted pictures on FB. That was pretty hurtful!

I made one shirt for each of my girls this week. And they mostly, sort of liked it. One daughter told me it was pretty nice but very plain. The other one told me that it was a pretty good shirt and she'd probably wear it, maybe. I do have fabric to make them two more shirts but I'm not cutting into it until I see that they wear the first shirt that I made them. I used one of their favorite Abercrombie shirts for the pattern so they should like the style. I'll try and force them to put the shirts on so I can take a picture.

That is pretty hurtful... I hate the middle school age and cannot wait until my girls are past it - children are soooo mean (and mine are not excluded from that - I'd like to be delusional and think they are always nice, but I know better).

Hi Everyone!!

D - that donald duck bag is AWESOME!!!!!! I'd love to see an Eeyore bag or a Tigger bag someday ( :

Loving all the sewing - I just have not been in the groove at all. Unfortunately, I have been battling with some kind of GERD, gastro, asthma mix that just isnt clearing up. This week I had to have an ultrasound and a upper endoscopy - and if you know me, you know I am totally afraid of Dr's and stuff - this was my first time to ever be put to sleep!!! Anyways, I get to hear the results of stuff on Monday....hopefully its something simple!!! I feel like I missed the whole summer, was even really sick on vacation - bleck - I am SO DONE!!!!! Sorry to vent, I am just so at that point - trying to be positive though - and hey, it has been awesome for weight loss!!!

Also I would be so excited if someone would consider making the Jedi Robes for Noah's Big Give - these little kiddos would be THRILLED to pieces to receive these for gifts!!!! Please come and help??? Also could use just a shirt or 2 for big bro and big sis......If you havent joined the Big Give, you will have a GREAT time creating things for these wonderful families!!!!!! Thanks for considering!!

Wendy

Thanks Wendy! I have done a Tigger bag, just not 3-D like Donald - it's one of my favorites... I have it on my Serendipid~ fan page albums and it's also in the Table of Contents of my TR link below in my siggy. I would love to do Eeyore and I have some great ideas!

I am praying that your results from all your testing are normal - yet I hope they find whatever it is that is wrong.

Sorry you've had such a rough summer. I just had an endoscopy last week too. It was my second one so I knew what to expect. I hope yours was easy. For me, compared to some of the other things I've had, it was really very minimal. I wish I'd known before hand because I would have reassured you that it wasn't scary or painful at all. I got the results from my endoscopy immediately after I woke up. The dr even gave me a copy of all the pictures he took. LOL!

Ok, here are some pictures. The first one is a kitty cat dress that I made for my niece. They just adopted a cat and she is nuts about cats right now. It is still damp from me washing off the placement markings so it looks a little funny.

This is the shirt that I made for my dd. I actually made two of them but neither girl is home right now and I could only find one of them.

I am kind of thinking that if my younger dd goes back to Disney with my SIL and BIL over winter break, I will add some kind of hidden Mickey snowflake design to the front. But for right now, it is staying plain.

Love the Kitty Cat dress!

And that shirt looks so comfy! I wish I was brave enough to create a dress from one of the girls' dresses - V just got a cute one today that I would love to copy and Disney-fy.

What a great idea! I should have known you would never hurt Donald!!
