Here are a couple pics of V's customs that are DONE.
All the dresses look great but I really like the Drizella. I think the first dress is busy enough without adding to it.
Today I finally found the courage to try to familiarize myself with my machine a bit more. Lowered the feed dogs and now they won't go back up again.
had that happen to me too and it was super frustrating. I was so upset I had just about given up sewing. I am glad you got answered and it helped.
Hi all! It's been a while since I've been here so a re-introduction may be necessary. I'm Julie and I like to glam things up a bit with patchwork and decoupage. Here's two of my latest:
The shorts look great, i like the fabric choice. I was just at Gettysburg a few week ago and we had so much fun. we were too early for the anniversary celebration but we did get to experience no power in the museum.
We only spent one day there but I hope to go back and do lots more.
After finally catching up.... such sweet dresses and shirts have been posted. I had a great trip from NH to TX with my kids and cousin. we stopped at a lot of places and the one place my DD16 swore she would hate ended up being her favorite, Nashville. She really wants to go back. I took the boys and we did the Country Music hall of Fame while DD16 and cousin shopped in downtown. neither are country music fans and even I was surprised at how many country stars I knew.
I have been missing for a while and haven't sewn for even longer but I hope to start this week. I have some curtains to make for my new house. I can't wait to get started on what I have cut out already. I also have to get started on cutting out my Halloween costume since I know making it will take me forever. We have been busy unpacking and trying to find everything in the boxes since we didn't pack ourselves and the movers didn't label all the boxes quite right. Almost everything made it here intact, I brought most of my sewing stuff myself so no problems there. we have a few rooms in the house almost completely set up, still waiting on the kitchen table to be delivered tomorrow. We bought a new one since the only table we had was a dining room table in not the greatest shape. Now I get to use the dining room table as my cutting table. Yay !! I'm so glad I don't have to clear the table every night.
I also got a nice and large sewing room. It has 3 machines in it right now. My Brother, my DS's Kenmore, and my treadle Singer. My sewing room is almost done, I have to make my door panels (I have the fabric) and then find fabric for my curtains. I would like to share pictures of it though, lots of Disney in it. My sewing room from the right of the doors and all around the room.
Sorry in advance for the photo overload.....
The fabric hanging in that last one is two aprons that my grandmother made when I was younger. I had a dress made from the plaid that I loved. I also got a new computer, you can see the monitor hanging in the first picture. I figured out what to do with all my antennae toppers since I can't use them on my car...
And my DVC wall in the first picture too. I got my golden key when the guide "lost it" while showing us the Villa's and the hallway of GFV before they could show us the rooms this past December. So sad he lost it by dropping it into my bag for me.
I am making my 2nd hipster now. Great job!
your sewing room. I love all the stuff on the walls.
