anyone know any websites i can buy disney appliques ive looked on ebay and theres not much on there??
Those both look so macho!!I was gonna put cute.
I also thought that the shirt was a little heavy fully lined. I made one that wasn't lined. I liked it better that way.
They both came out great! Did you make the shirt longer? I could have sworn some one mentioned they wished the pattern sizes were longer? I just bought this pattern but I haven't started it yet so I was wondering.
Great job! Seriously, is he getting taller by the day????
i love it . he is growing up handsome as ever . kinda reminds me of kj's shirtGreat minds think alike .![]()
i did also have a hard time with the fabric that is why there is black as the lining and sleeves.
Happy Birthday Jacob! Both him and Megan are looking much older along with Leighanna and Tessa!!
Everything turned out GREAT!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACOB!!!!!![]()

The dragon shirt looks really good in that style! He looks tough!![]()
I keep forgetting to post HAPPY BDAY Jacob!
Those look great!!!! Love the dragon shirt!
I love 'em both! He looks so chill!
I know that Steph kind of made up her own and it turned out really cute.
He looks very handsome!! Great job on the shirt and shorts!!
Well I sewed and sewed and messed up and ripped seams and sewed some more but I finished Jacob's birthday shirt. It just fits him so I guess I should have went up a size even though he measured smaller.
First, here is his first day of school outfit. He picked out the fabric for the shorts and we found the t to match:

I bought the wrong size buttons : so I convinced him that the open shirt look was cool:

I imagine that he's thinking, "Hey Arminda, what's up?" :
The back:

We won't lose him in a crowd, lol. I don't know if I was hurrying too much or what but I had a lot of trouble with this pattern. It is also pretty heavy with it being lined. I should have picked a thinner fabric for the lining but I wanted to stick to 100% cotton since the dragon fabric was cotton. It was a learning experience!
Here is Kirsta's outfit to have breakfast with Lilo. It's hard to tell, but I used a skort and made "leaves" to go over it. The top is a red halter, and I made the back shirred. This was my first experince with shirring. Thanks to everyone here, I never would have thought to do this. I did an iron on for the front. I got some Leaf type leis, that I am going to get around to putting on elastic so you can have the bracelets and anklets.

I made this shirt for Luishen. I think it looks a little girly. Maybe he will wear it when we go into the village? Anyway, I got the idea when I saw some madras shorts that were patched. I put snaps on the front instead of buttons.

This is an old picture, I added a row to the bottom. And I still have to find something for the Bib of the overalls.

I thought I would copy,( or is that case?) Heather and do some Paint shop frames!![]()
I love it! There is nothing wrong with it. It is perfect! I wish I could paint like that! I did have a bf in high school that painted a mickey mouse on my wall. He did a great job, but yours is way better!OK - I did my trial paint. I'm not sure what is bothering me about it, but something just isn't right... Anyone?? (honest opinions, please!!)

Any further suggestions or tips before I try to get into the birthday outfit?
And here they are...she had so much fun...she thinks she a model!! It's so cute!!
I didn't use a pattern for any of these..only because I am "pattern challenged"...HAHA!! I just got all the material for a Cinderella Dress...so we shall see!! I'll post it when I am done...and thank you all for being such an inspiration!! I will have to change my DD(4) 3 times a day, in order for her to where them all in DL in December!!

Hi Everyone!!
Speaking of kids growing up, have any of you heard the song by Steven Curtis Chapman called Cinderella? Its AMAZING!!! He wrote it bout his little girls who were dressing up as princesses when he was busy wanting to do something else (like we all are) but then taking the time with them before they are all grown up. Well, I dont know if you heard the story, but one of his little girls was killed a few months ago - now this song really brings tears to my eyes- they were on Good Morning America this morning (he and his wife and older kids) and will be on Larry King tomorrow....you can google or youtube the song to hear it - its beautiful!!
Wendy

That song made me cry from the 1st time I heard it but after the tragic loss of his little girl I can't even listen to it! They are such a strong family. That poor son Will he is going to be so scared for life. I love how the whole family just rallied around him showing so much love to him. Ok need to stop crying now!Hi Everyone!!
WOW - the outfits coming out are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh that is a good one too! Don't Blink by Kenny Chensey gets me too! These kids have to stop growing!Beautiful song!
Reminds me of another of my favorite songs Butterflykisses from Bob Carlisle.
Good thing you can't see me. Not a good looking crying man here!![]()
I have to remember to do that. I feel like I am always adding to patterns nothing I like is ever the right size just as it is UGH! Thanks! I am itching to make it but I have a few things I really need to get to 1st..I did. His chest measured the 5/6 size (yes, he's nine) so I lengthened the pattern by two inches. Both of my kids have long torsos, so I tend to lengthen every top I do for them.
I need to go back and check out everything I missed yesterday, but I see that some of you are discussing the Vida pattern. I've been wanting to buy it, but wondered how it runs for sizing.
The pattern goes up to an 11 and DD is currently wearing an 8/10 depending on fit. I don't want to spend the money if it runs small. IIRC, the chest measurement I found for the 11 was around 31-32 inches which seems like it would be okay.
This song makes me cry along with butterfly kisses. I didn't realize Curtis Chapman lost one of his little girls. That is going to make me cry even more everytime I hear it.
They all have it!!!! I didn't think that started til they were teenagers...boy was I wrong![]()
anyone know any websites i can buy disney appliques ive looked on ebay and theres not much on there??
I know this was a few pages back, but had to comment! My four year old is turning 15 on Halloween! We have entered what I call "Fresh-ville". She is definitely trying to find her boundaries.![]()
Fully done appliques that you stick on? I saw some at Joann's just yesterday.
I finished my DD animal kingdom outfit today. It is big but I think it looks cute.
I think this looks so great and clean. Wish I was as talented in the painting department!

ok, just finished my Hello Kitty set.. ok the outfit can be worn a couple of ways.. it is a 4 piece with a apron, dress, appliqued jeans and shirt. I was busy this weekend!

Ok, I need an opinion. I'm making a gored appliqued skirt and I want to put tigger on the top. The problem is that the tigger in the size I put on the skirt seems to be too small. In this picture is the large tigger with the small guys on the skirt. Does it look too big? I'm needing to finish these up and I'm at a stand still.

The big give is where we make items for make a wish families going to disney. If you click one of the banners in our names it will take you to where they are at and where we sign up. We make 3 outfits per child, crayon roll ups, autograph books, passports and pixie dusts (which anyone sends whatever they want, postcards, stickers, etc). I am sure I am forgetting something!
Great job! Did you use CarlaC's pattern on the shorts? I really need to buy that pattern. The shirt is really cool!
Ditto - a little late! Is Jacob turning 9? If so, he and my DD Megan are very close in age. She turns 9 on 8/19.
Just finished my MAW Big give for Nicoledisneyfan.
Leighanna is just about the same size, so she was able to model it for you all.

I LOVE everything you have made for her!! Our DD's look about the same size and we are going in Sept too so I am thinking that after she wears an outfit you can just hand it off to me and then I won't have to go through the trouble of figuring out how to make outfits!!! LOL!Very cute stuff though! You have inspired me!!
