there is no keeping up with this thread. I have loved everything- love reading the updated trip reports (thanks for posting here, I always just click your siggy and read away) and loved all the new stuff.
I am almost done. I have the smocked jumper left and about 4 weeks to go. So what is a girl to do? Throw 3 more projects in there! I had this shirt made for a friend's daughter for her bug birthday party. So, I just had to make her a skirt too, right? PS- I know I am a mean mommy for making Coops try it on. I needed to figure out the sizing a bit. He is pretty small for his age, so I made it a bit big on him. The waist gapes a bit, but I figure that it will fit a "normal" sized child correctly.

And I finally finished the monsters Inc outfits. I psyched myself up this past week. I re-read the youcanmakethis tutorial on applique and re-read, and re-re-read HeatherSue's tutorial (which is the best, btw) and finally gave it a try. I feel pretty good about how they came out. I wish that I could have found a shade deeper thread, but that was the best that I could do.

And Cooper's response to seeing the finished Mike shirts was "good job, mommy, soooo where is the big guy, you know the one with TWO eyes". Yeah, not going to even try that one!!
Love it all. You did a great job on mike! That was your first applique? WOW!
