Try this link. It is full of coloring book pages. I usually find one that I want and copy it into Word and enlarge it to the size I want. If there is something specific on the page that I want I crop it in Photo paint, then copy to Word and print it out in the size that I need it. http://www.coloring-book.info/coloring/
You should sell them. Before Jenna turned two she went to a daycare that requested a nap pad that had a blanket and a pillow attached to the mat. The daycare actually gave me the name and information for a lady who was making them and said that she was the only person they knew of where I could one like that. Little did they know that I also sew and just converted a baby comforter, baby pillow and regular nap mat into what they were requesting.
I think she was selling them for about $50.
Okay, so I'm pretty new to the whole custom clothing thing but I did want to share with you my quilt that I made for my DH for Christmas a couple of years ago.
I came up with the design and appliques. This was my first quilt ever.
I've done several other Disney appliques but they were for friends and I don't have photos to share.
We are going to Disneyland in December and I'm starting to plan out my projects for our kids. You all do so many beautiful things!
3) Is it bad that I'm trying to talk Ella into this birthday party
because I have this fabric?
I think I may have her *kinda* talked into it, but she's not fully convinced yet. She'll come around. I hope.
Hope everyone's having a great Monday!
Love all the stuff posted so far .. i had another dentist appointment on Fri (One of the many Ones ) so i have been sleeping mostly and slightly taking advantage of some much needed me timebut yesterday i needed no pain assistance
so i sewed My Camden
a button up shirt and a pair of shorts
he was so excited
So here it is
I also found this pattern a Gazillion times easier and everything matched up perfectly ... Easy McCalls #3193
I thought I'd post what i did/finished today and one thing I never posted:
Getting there. 8 more sewing days....7 more outfits.....
ETA: the legs on the tigger shorts are the same length....i just pulled them out to double check. They were laying funny.
I made those shorts before the sale, actually. Just had to finish the embroidery today. Fixed adn finished the pink dress and did the whole nemo outfit. I am also half way done with a Zurg outfit (my son hasd some....interesting requests).
I stack-and-whacked the fabric for 5 different pair of shorts for Spencer....so I just have to sew them together. The embroidery takes the longer time.....well and the dresses for Brianna.
Oh, and anyone who's interested, I got most of the embroideries from Brother cards and converted them with software.
Hey everyone! Haven't posted in a while, but have been lurking and trying to keep up! I have absolutely loved everything posted! HeatherSue - that peter pan top will most definitely be CASED! Castle's Minnie Sailor, the quilt! Seriously. You guys are putting me to shame. I come here, see all of your latest and greatest creations, get all inspired, go to sew something, then
-whoosh!- all my inspiration is gone, then I just end up making the same old thing, just with different fabric. Ack! I have all these ideas in my head, I just can't always seem to execute them. Whew! glad I got that out!
OK, couple of things -
1) Just so all of your kids know, Ella had decided she is friends with every child on this thread. Anytime she sees a picture of someone, she'll say she likes him or her and they are her friend. Then she won't let me scroll past, she'll just gaze admiringly at her new friend. What a crack-up!
2) This is old news by now, but here is what she ended up with for the Princess on Ice show. The show was so much fun!

Well at that time it was just me and Jenna so money was tight. So buying one wasn't an option. I think my aunt gave me one of the mats that her children used when they were younger, I made a case for it like a pillowcase with a sleeping bag attached to it and attached the little pillow to it. It was the same as the other kids had and it didn't cost me near as much.
- the bodice is a lengthened portrait peasant)
And finally some wine bags I forgot to share (they are for a wine tasting party, so the wine is supposed to be a mystery)
I don't usually watch Super Nanny, but do remember catching that episode. 
Last time I went they had all kinds of Disney fabric - I was in heaven! lol
those are all really cute i love the wine bags that is a really cool ideaWhew! I think I finally made it through to the end! I was busy sewing this weekend and got very behind! Anyway, just wanted to share some pics...
First, a total CASE for a little girl's birthday party next weekend (she's having a LM theme)
Then the bribes for my kids being good at the fabric store on Friday - new pjs from flannel they picked out. (the nightgown was my first circle skirt done without a pattern!
Then a birthday gift for an adult friend who has two boys that love pirates. (it says Pirate Princess - kinda hard to see)
And an earth day shirt for me!
And finally some wine bags I forgot to share (they are for a wine tasting party, so the wine is supposed to be a mystery)
i am so glad that he came through okay Prayers for a speedy recovery
I found some friends around the world fabric at my hancock today for $2.50 per yard. It is this one:
and this one
I was about four months along when ds took his first trip to FL. This one was cuter then some of the disney ones-!! I was 5 months pregnant the last time I went to Disney. I hadn't started sewing yet. So, I went to the Disign board and had someone make a design with my name on it, surrounded by Disney characters. Then, I ironed it onto a maternity shirt. I also added, on my belly "Coming June 2006, Sawyer". Here's a picture:
My mom and Tessa also had shirts with their names on them.
This was in January 2006Very cute! That fabric is cute!! Good Luck!! my dd loves to see all the friends on the computer too!
Hope everyone's having a great Monday!
I put hot glue on the inside of the clip to make it non slip.Thank-you, Thank-you, thank-you!! There is a Sally's that just opened right near my house (it's a 10 minute walk!!) I haven't even been in there yet it's that new. Thanks so much I'll check it out tonight
Super Cute- My grammy made my dh & ds matching shirts and ds got a pair of shorts too with the same flame fabric. And Good Luck at the dentist. I am glad to say I'm done until august- I hope!!So here it is

Just keep sewing, sewing, sewing!! Great Job!!I thought I'd post what i did/finished today and one thing I never posted:

I think that will be here on Thursday
Kids are so funny!!! What a great face
So glad the surgery went well!! And Have a great trip!!!This actually works.
I was just thinking about this today. Does this actually work to keep the barrette in your DD's hair? Is it hard to get in her hair?
I haven't had any bows fall out. dd's hair is still pretty fine and slippery. It just keeps getting longer- not thicker! Well at least so far!
