Just to be careful I would ask the person that you CASED before posting it. That way if they are not ok with it than you won't hurt anyone's feelings. By the way if it was me that you CASED go ahead. I am flattered by being CASED.I have a question that I hope is not contraversial, please no one take it that way.
Are there any rules about posting pics on the new account? All but one of my outfits are CASED. Non of them are 100% the same but very similar. Since our names are now posted with the outfits I don't want it to seem like I am trying to take credit for an idea. Is it o.k. to post a CASED outfit?
Thanks!
It sounds like you are in a mobile Photobucket account. Somewhere on there there are little words that you need to click on, I think it's in the left hand corner. They are small, so you probably won't be able to read them. I hope that works!

Hi everyone! I posted to this thread for a while last summer before and after our trip, but since then I've only lurked. I've loved seeing all of the fabulous outfits and the beautiful children, and reading about everyone's trips. I hope it's not too creepy that I've lurked for so long, lol. I've been a regular poster on a much smaller Disney-related message board for many years, but they're not sewers and there's only one of them who "gets" boutique clothing.
Anyway, I've been sewing for a long time, and I sew some for profit, but I was inspired to learn applique from this thread and from the fact that my taste in boutique clothing far outpaces my budget for it. A few days ago I finished my first Minnie head, and I'm going to try doing her entire body soon. I did it as a sample for someone using a small size t-shirt that I had on hand, so it's not being modeled by one of my kids in the pic, but I think you can see it fairly well. I'm happy with it. There are a few things that I'll do differently next time, but overall I think it looks pretty good.
I also just finished this dress for my daughter to wear on our next trip. I made it a bit large so that she will, I hope, still fit into it when we go. I had been wanting to try this pattern for a while, and now that I have it's one of my favorites.
I'm totally picturing it in my head with a white crochet cloche (that I'll have to buy. A girl only has so much time for creative pursuits, lol.)

I love the applique. You did a great job. I love that dress. That is very original. Just curious what pattern did you use to make the dress?

These few feel that they have the copyright on creativity and just did not want to listen to what everyone was trying to say to them with out being defensive and rude. I recall this happening on another occassion. Yes, some people are being ignored, hopefully as a temp measure to cool down and get the group back to what it's supposed to be. A sewing group, where we can gain inspiration from each other.

I thought it looked like it would a little difficult, but it turned out fantastic.
I have no idea who the original idea come form for most of my stuff but I'll do my best!! I only have like 5 outfits to share so I won't have to do much research. LOL
Plus, all my stuff falls apart when I wash it so I don't think anyone would want any of my things anyway. They'd be demanding a refund! LOL 
Are you using any Heat n' Bond when you do them? When I use Heat n' Bond I don't have that problem. It helps to bond the applique to the shirt.Thanks.
I am definitely not selling. LOL You'd couldn't pay me enough to make even one simple outfit because I am so slow and it takes me forever to do one simple thing.
Which leads me to this question. My appliques fray away from my embroidery line when I wash them. I put them in the machine on Hand wash so I thought I'd be safe that way. How do you keep them from fraying? I wonder if I just make my embroidery line to thin. Any tips??? It's too much work to wear just once.
