I have 2 new schools to tour tommrrow and I think it will suck all my energy out!!!! ugghhhhh.

Me, too. I'm tired and heading to bed. I wonder how many pages I'll need to catch up on in the morning? Good night, all!
 
These minnie dot pants where the first custom Disney item I ever sewed!!! (I did some sewing before that but merely for Halloween costumes...no need to share those...hahahha) Oh and I "Disneyfied" the shirt too by ironing on some letters and Minnie!!!

She wasn't so sure about Goofy at first!
All the pics are great- dd wasn't diggin goofy when she saw the first time either!
And yes I do get to fabric paint at work- sometimes and sometimes I get to scrapbook and go to movies and sometimes like today I get to go to the bank and sit there for 2 hours then go to the POLICE station- because someone stole a box of checks out of one of my ladies mail box!!! The bank was really good and gave back the money that the bad people wrote checks for- 5 checks a total of about 150.00. Not to awful could have been worse, But I take the good with the bad!!
 
Whoo hoo! We are going to disney in the AM!
:banana: :banana: :banana: for you- do you have room for a few friends and their very well dressed children:rolleyes1
Someone was asking for first sewing projects - well mine aren't interesting - I've only been sewing a wee while

So precious- I love the matching one for Izzy!!

Oh deann I missed your quote before- Great score on your fabric today- I love the black swirly!!

p.s. I would like to officially call this pose the Anastasia:lmao:

OMG- That is so great- my favorite pose yet (and it's not just cuz we share a name) I really love it!!!:rotfl2:
 

I love this picture of you and your DD. It looks cool because the people are all blurry, but it looks like time froze for you and your DD.

My technical tool is a huge safety pin too!!!
Mine too. I've seen a Bodkin before but didn't know that is what it was called.

For all of those that use Moda fabric -- where do you buy it? I love that valentine swirly fabric that was used and now I want to find some!
:wizard: has a seller that sells it.
How do you think that would like on a 40 something adult female? :lmao:
I think it would be totally glam.
 
I went away for a couple of hours and when I came back I had 6 pages to read through. It's some talking and sewing people on this thread. :lmao:

MsMckenna- My DH has informed me that he would not be wearing any shirts with cartoon characters on them. I offered to make him a Transformers/Decepticons T and he said no. He said it was too childish. I will be making these for my best friend's little boy and her step sons.
 
I finally got a few of my Photopass pictures uploaded to Photobucket.

This is the whole group. My family is on the left. I made all the customs. I wish I had insisted that our DH's at least wear black, white or red.

Here is one that shows DDs AK custom pretty well.

DS's pirate shirt. I also made DNiece and Dnephew's Mickey head shirts.

When I posted my first batch of pictures I promised someone (Cathy, I think) that I would post some of the Castle lights. It was so beautiful.

Sometimes those men folk just don't get with the program. I had dh at least coordinate most of the days. As long as he was consulted about his wardrobe he was fine. And those Castle pics are FAB U LOS!!
could you all please say some prayers or send some vibes my way if you are not a prayer. Silly request but ever since this nasty MRSA :sick: came into our lives 2 1/2 wks ago I have become a germaphobe. I know there is nothing wrong with being clean, but I used to know that germs needed a home too. Well now it seems like all I do is clean, I can't get things clean enough and it is freaking me out. I like clean, don't get me wrong but I used to be able to sit down when DH would get home and just enjoy family time, not anymore. I feel all freaked out inside if a crumb is dropped. If I dont' lysol the laundry it isn't clean. :scared1: :scared1: The camodes get lysol sprayed on them after every use and get thoroughly liquid lysoled at the end of the day. I just want to be able to relax but I live in fear of this MRSA. Once you have it, it never goes away, it lays dormant and rears its ugly head whenever it wants to. I just want to be normal again. please. :sad2: :sad2: :sad2: :sad2:
So sorry that this has turned you into super clean mom- We'll say a pray for family :flower3:
:yay: :yay: :yay: Congrats on first place- good for the girls to get it together!!! I bet they feel great!!
 
Ok, here is the patterns and material I bought today for my first official sewing project in 20+ years. I'll be making the short sleeve version of both. I'm not one for no sleeves. Eventually, I will make both long sleeve versions. I love those!

I love that top pattern!!! I want one of those shirts in plus size :) Do they make plus size patterns?
 
Do tell?


Or do I have a feeling I know lol.

Well, I was going to say you could send some to Minnesota... But after reading about the "whale incident" you should make some applique tees for hubby, and maybe some loungy pants if you have enough. But definitely some applique tees!! That would be cool and maybe add some Patches to your ds pants.

And now I am finally caught up again.
There was a heat wave today- It was 43!!! And it RAINED!!! well the party is over it will be -10 in the morning so all that rain will be ice and that make for some fun drivin'. Hope people will SLOW DOWN or it could be a bumpy morning!!!
 
wow can i just say that this is the first time i am all caught up before hitting the bed ...
Shameless plug i posted another chapt on my TR Good night all

It's not knotted ;) below is how I do it it is sewn - it gives a nice flat waistband - If I'm playing with colours then I'll loop it (I can't remember if I done it with this one - I don't think I did - I'll aske her next time she's over) but if I know what I want I just sew. This has 2 pieces of each colour folded over and sewn (if that makes sense).
Ohhh very cool thanks for sharing...I think I will have to try it! Perhaps I can make a "Lori skirt" with it..hahahaha:thumbsup2

Josie and Pierre are still cut off, I can see the tips of their ears.

I see this (but with all the smilies before Josie)
Married to Henry the Disney-hater since 1994, mother of Tessa (4), and Sawyer (1), doggy-mom to Josie
Its emotionally devestating that I can't share that or any of my interests with my DH :rolleyes1

ok, I was working on this set! This is a Hannah Montana skirt since my 6 year old is hannah montana obsessed! Guess she will wear customs if it;s hannah. shirt is from walmart.

Oh wow Amy....what great pics. Are they doing just the photopass at Chef Mickeys now or are they coming around with the astronomically priced packages to the tables???
And I LOVE :love: :love: :love: your castle pics!!!!!

Holy crap! I'll never be able to catch up when I get back! We just decided about an hour and a half ago we were going! I really need to packing but wanted to check in!
Exsqueeze me???? Did you just say that you decided a few hours ago that you were going to Disney in the morning???? :confused3 I am assuming then that you live nearby?? I have to wait 9 more years and 88 days for such spontinaity (sorry I butchered the spelling on that but I gotta get going here). Have a great trip!!! Take pics and don't forget the required on if Minnie's House is open!!! :laughing:

I have that second pattern, but I've never used it. I've never made anything for me yet. Nice fabric choices! Can't wait to see your top so I can decide to make me one!

I signed up for a sewing class today :) I start Monday.

:cool1: :cool1: Way to go! I hope you have fun!

So hopefully this post will work. Here is a picture of the ribbon shirt that I made.:lovestruc I'm so excited about it because #1 I finished something, #2 it came out exactly how it was suppose to and #3 It was the first time I appliqued and used the HeatnBond in my life and I did pretty good.

Good job! Is that for you?
 
I bought some crystals to make a Bling Carriage top for dd7. Can I just use E6000 to apply them in the shape I want? Anyone have a good carrige picture they can send me that they used? Anyone have any tips for this project?

Feel free to PM me, I know this topic has been discussed countless times!
 
Wow this thread is moving incredibly fast! Love the "Anastasia" pose! Those castle pics make me totally want to go for Christmas. Think they will be like that next year??

I can't imagine why they wouldn't everyone seemed to love it this year.

Thanks for looking at my bragging mommy posts :)

Those pictures are very cool!! :scared1:

OH! You mean a diaper pin!

Which is my highly effective red neck doo-dad! :rotfl2:

That's what I use too... :rotfl2:

Your custom's are great, but the castle pics are WONDERFUL! I must've been living under a rock because I've never seen the castle with the lights on it in different colors before. How I wish I was going during Christmas. But, in case you didn't see my previous post, I AM going in 18 DAYS!

Thanks and have a wonderful trip!! I have a good friend who is going that week as well. Her DS has a soccer tournament so they really had no choice on the dates. I've been trying to help her out with some touring plans because none of them have ever been before.
 
I go away to WDW and come back to a new thread and a LONG thread at that. I have over 60 pages to catch up on.:confused3 :confused3 :confused3
 
Clutterbug (Amy) I love, love, love the castle pics with all the lights. I can't wait to see the world at Christmas time. I bet it's just wonderful! Love the Chef Mickey pics. :)

Thank you! All the decorations were beautiful and it was so neat how each resort and park had their own unique theme.

I love this picture of you and your DD. It looks cool because the people are all blurry, but it looks like time froze for you and your DD.

Thank you!!

Sometimes those men folk just don't get with the program. I had dh at least coordinate most of the days. As long as he was consulted about his wardrobe he was fine. And those Castle pics are FAB U LOS!!!

Thank you!! I know DH would have cooperated if I had asked and even would have worn a custom tee if I made it, but I just didn't have time to work it all out.

I signed up for a sewing class today :) I start Monday.

WooHoo! Enjoy and be sure to come back and share any great tips that you learn!!

Oh wow Amy....what great pics. Are they doing just the photopass at Chef Mickeys now or are they coming around with the astronomically priced packages to the tables???
And I LOVE :love: :love: :love: your castle pics!!!!!

They still have the package, but DSIL bought the package and the back of the picture has the code to add it to your Photopass.


So hopefully this post will work. Here is a picture of the ribbon shirt that I made.:lovestruc I'm so excited about it because #1 I finished something, #2 it came out exactly how it was suppose to and #3 It was the first time I appliqued and used the HeatnBond in my life and I did pretty good.
