Everything you makes looks great. This is really special something a bit different I love it well done.

I just got back from Joann's and found this cute fabric. I bought 4 yards and don't know what I'm going to do with it yet. In the pic, it looks greenish, but it's blue.

I was there buying fabric for a blanket I'm planning on making. Our Joanns hardly has any princess fabric. It's all flannel. Do you think that will be ok for a blanket? Flannel?

Hey Disney4Me,
I love the winter Mickey fabric...I'll have to check out JoAnn's Were you looking for princess fleece or regular cotton? My JoAnn's had tons of princess fleece...PM me if you want me to hook you up.

Thanks for the offer. I'm always looking for regular cotton princess fabric. Our JoAnn's only has flannel. I'm wanting to make a patchwork-type blanket similar to some posted recently. I was hoping to use cotton, but had to go with flannel. I'm thinking of doing a plain flannel bottom, batting middle, flannel patchwork top and wanted to know if that would work, using flannel. I've never done a blanket. As always, I have no pattern to follow. Just make it up as I go along. But I don't want to start this blanket if flannel isn't the way to go.

Our JoAnn's does have princess fleece, which I also might buy and just sew the edges, maybe use a satin-type binding, to create blankets. I'm thinking those would be similar to the ones at DisneyShopping.com. Quick and easy. My kids are always complaining they are cold so we can use more blankets.

So, to finally getting around to answering your question, I don't need any fleece, but thank you for asking.

Hi all we are off to start our holiday from Australia in 15 more sleeps and will be in WDW in 25 more sleeps so am trying to finish of the outfits I with the help of my DM and DMIL. This is the first one. My DM did most of this and I thankyou for the person who originally inspired this for me I think they had Alice on theres.

I'm a quilter, I like patchwork.

The first skirt. It was the prototype. About 18 fabrics in this one! I mentioned I'm a quilter, right? Well, I made her a quilt for Christmas last year. Pink, as requested. And as I was looking for fabrics to make a demo skirt out of, I decided if I liked them together for a quilt they'd look good in a skirt. How many girls match their bedding completely? And it's been worn every weekend for the past month, so I know I have a hit. It will be worn with either this top or a hot pink tank.

I'm also a former quilter and I made my dds matching quilts for their room a few years ago and the leftover is what I used to make a skirt and pillowcase dress! So, you're not alone!

WOW Aimee the mermaid outfit is AMAZING!!!!!! OK, I am sure that you are still up and drinking some coke zero So where are the pictures of Hannah in her gorgeous mermaid outfit?!?!?!? Your eye for color and matching trims is absolutely amazing, especially since you claim to have only started sewing a few months ago....

Yeah, I think she's been a closet seamstress and is just not telling us! I only started 3 months ago, and she's waaaayyyyy better than me!

LOVE these. very cute!

 

[tarazandra]

Great job!!!
I have been reading your name wrong! I kept reading TARZANdra! I thought you just really liked Tarzan! DUH!

LOL Trust me when I say I've been called that more than a few times in my life My first name is Tara after the plantation in Gone With the Wind (my sister is Ashley, also from Gone With the Wind). My middle name is Zandra but I use it almost exclusively now and have for the last 14 years. So my username is always my first and middle name because I know it won't be taken on any site!

I really like the colors you picked on the pumpkin. They are different. Great job!

 

[Camping Griswalds]

Thanks everyone for your compliments. but I didn't make the Raggedy ann, bought it at the party store for 25 dollars. LOL...I couldn't even buy the trim for that much. She loves it and it's a size 2, ahem, did I mention that she's a size 5. She has to suck in all of the air in her head to get it on...
Poor thing...but she really wanted it.

It is still very cute, but I can't believe it wasn't handmade! It looks great. What has Ireland decided to be ths year?

Dont forget to get this pic of our kiddie with their customs with Minnies sewing machine

Is this in Minnies house in Toontown? I will definately try to get there and take a picture of DD.

You can definitely use flannel for the blankets. You could make a rag-quilt with the flannel, then you don't have to bind the edges, since you want them to have the fray look. If you want to see of pic of this let me know and I'll post one, not Disney though. Rag-quilts are easy to make, just some patience to cut all the edges to make it fray.

This is Adorable. I, too, love the fabric choices for the applique on the jeans.

If it's not too much trouble, please post a pic of a rag quilt. I bought 5 different princess fabrics for the patchwork part, a purple fabric for the back of the blanket, and a pink fabric for around the edges of the purple and the patchwork. I hope that makes sense!

I haven't bought any fleece yet for the other blankets I'm thinking of making.

Too many projects!

Is this in Minnies house in Toontown? I will definately try to get there and take a picture of DD.

Yes, it's in Minnie's house in Toontown. I wanted to get a pic of my girls at the sewing machine when we were there last month, but forgot. It was such a quick trip and it rained during the Pirate & Princess Party that we never even made it to Toontown! Oh, well. It's on my to-do for next time!

 

[teresajoy]

Have to share.... You all have been making fabulous outfits lately..... love them all!!!
I was away for a while but I'm back.
here is my lovely kids in front of our walk! We finally bought a space to call our very own at the Universiy of AZ. This is infront of Mckale Center where they play basketball! It just got placed a few weeks ago finally. we live 2 hours north so it was our first time seeing it!
I of course had to make the girls outfits to support the school and football team which one there home opener! WOO HOO!

Lori

Cute outfits, and neat picture!

You could come over my way, we have an amusement park of sorts here w/ an underwater theatre w/ real live mermaids. DH and I always tell ppl we live in the coolest place there are no less than 6 close-to life size dinosaurs (don't ask me why, they're all in various locations around the county and range from one that holds a mechanic's garage inside of it to an unfinished giant topiary-the guy died before it was done.) and we have real mermaids. How freakin' cool.

...t.

I LOOOOVE Weeki Wachee!! At least I did 24 some years ago when I was there last! (I have some pictures of our last trip there, I should find them and amuse everyone with my ultimate 14 year old coolness! My Dad scuba dived in their few years ago, Mom took a video of it, it's pertty cool. (Did you see my previous post about practicing to be a mermaid??)

A giant topiary dinosaur? I haven't seen that one! We have GOT to all meet up!

Thanks but I hate to say it was not a marathon. Total I think I spent about six hours on the costume. I was rushed so it is not technically perfect. I cut a lot of corners but it got the job done.

Hannah won the Grand Prize! I was stunned. There was a really cute pirate. He had a great shot.

WOOO HOOO HANNAH!!!! That is fantastic!!!!!! We REALLY need to see some pictures of her in it though!!!

This is Alexis's Halloween costume. She finally decided on being Raggedy Ann!

Oh, Alexis is an ADORABLE Raggedy Ann! You got a great deal on that costume!

Well, since I'm still pinning on skirt ruffle and I swore I'd have this done 2 weekends ago, I thought I'd share the AK bodice w/ my FIRST EVER applique. It's not great. Heck it's not even that good, but she's wearin' it anyway darn it. I have to add a polkadot ribbon to the minnie head. the polkadot fabric is on the skirt ruffle too. Keep in mind that I scanned this into the computer so the fabric looks a little weird.

...t.

You should stop going out looking for mermaids and get sewing! This is looking really cute!

I know I showed you all a few pictures of these outfits in progress - but I thought I would show some of the finished product. Thanks for looking!

Is this the shirt you dyed? The outfit turned out great!

Stephres-

I love your Seminole outfit!!!!!!

GO NOLES!!!


Everybody else...yours are great, too!

Ok, nobody every said I was reall quick! I was trying to figure out what kind of animal a NOLE was! I thought it might be like a vole. I use to be smart before I had kids.

Oh, these kids are so cute I just want to pinch their cheeks! I love the outfits, I really like that style of skirt. Sigh, another pattern I must go buy!



That is adorable! So much nicer than the one I got Megan from the party store when she was 2. If only I had met you guys earlier!



Sorry about the football thing, raised and bred Seminole fan I'm afraid. I would have to say that their colors are so much more prettier than the Gators' orange and blue (but of course, what can you expect from a girls' school?).

I love the start on the bodice: I think it looks really good. Let me know if you need more animal print; I don't need much of an excuse to go back to that quilt shop!



Are those yellow mickey head buttons I see? Those are totally cute and I love the way the Hannah Montana one came out. I bet she'll never want to take it off!

Ok, here is how silly I am. I had all those leftovers from Megan's FSU outfit so I decided to make myself a skirt. I took some old jeans that were a little tight in the butt and cut them off. It looks pretty silly, but I'll post pictures anyway when I'm done so ya'll can laugh at me.

Can't wait to see it!

Does anyone have the link for the Corset top instructions that LisaZoe gave? I quickly searched through the bookmarks at the beginning and did not see it. Thanks!
Jill

It's there, under tops, it's listed as LisaZoes Corset directions. The faux lacing directions are in the embellishments sections.

ETA: Actually, I put the faux lacing directions in the tops section so it would be easier to find.

She loves it and it's a size 2, ahem, did I mention that she's a size 5. She has to suck in all of the air in her head to get it on...
Poor thing...but she really wanted it.

That is hilarious!!!!!!!

Dont forget to get this pic of our kiddie with their customs with Minnies sewing machine

That's a great idea!

Here is my DD modeling her halloween outfit for out Royal Caribbean Cruise. It's for dinner before she changes into her costume (which she hasn't decided on) this isn't done yet - I have to add straps (I pinned the elastic to it tonight) and hem the skirt... oh yeah and add ruffles to some khakis for her.



A princess courtsey as she called it....

And for good measure you're daily dose of cuteness.... my 17 month old has figured out how to climb on chairs... this is where I found him!

I LOOVE the curtsey!! And, your son is too cute!!! Sawyer, my 14 (almost 15)month old nephew (hkite's little one) learned to open my Mom's front door today! Poor Heather!

We're off to the World for a short weekend in 12 days! DD5 think's we'll never get there!

Skirts are done, need to decide on the tops:

I'm a quilter, I like patchwork. She likes long skirts (this goes to mid-shin). We like the red top with it, so I need to work with that and ditch the white I was planning on. 2.25 yards of fabric, 1/2 spool of thread, and since this is the second, I'm dying for my gathering foot to come in.

And the last: I'm applique-ing a striped Mickey to the bodice of this. Not so much of a hit, as I've got a girl who likes skirts, and full skirts at that.

Deb

Adorable outfits!!! I had to chuckle at the names of your photos though! "no face reduced"!

Great outfit!!! I love the appliques!

My middle name is Zandra but I use it almost exclusively now and have for the last 14 years. So my username is always my first and middle name because I know it won't be taken on any site!

I always wanted to name a child Tara, I loved reading Gone With the Wind! As a teenager, I even thought of naming a boy Ashley. I also thought of naming a boy Ponyboy and Sodapop, but that's a different book.

Is this in Minnies house in Toontown? I will definately try to get there and take a picture of DD.

Yep, that's Minnie's house! My girls always have me take their picture at the sewing machine when we go in there! Corey too!

 

[glorib]

Glorib where are you from? GO PACKERS! They actually won today! If you need help finding fabric for the outfits let me know, it's all over in Green Bay. We even have Packer jibbitz in the store.

LOL, I'm actually in Kansas City, DH is the Packers fan. And that's very sweet of you to offer to pick up the fabric, but they actually had some at our local Hancock's! I just need to finish my current outfit, then I'll start on the Packers stuff.

I knew you would have it in there somewhere!

I LOVE this!!!!!! I have been trying to figure out a princess type outfit for DD witout using princess fabrics and this is perfect. I love the colors. PLEASE tell me you bought the cinderella somewhere?! I want to copy that shirt but there is no way I could applique her. I could probably do the patches on the pants, but I bet I would royally mess Cindy up DD has the perfect pair of pants I can do this to....actually they were pants, and are now capris on her, but the waist is still perfect

[karebear1]

I'm ba-a-a-a-a-ck!!!
I missed you and all your creations while I was gone. I wish I could say I am all rested up from our trip to Washington DC, but I'm more tired now then I was when I left! WE did have a good time and I learned a few things.....
1. Washington DC in Septmember is unbearably HOT and HUMID!
2. When I'm tired, I can sleep ANYWHERE, including a haunted hotel and possibly even while standing!! LOL!
3. I may be a redneck at heart. We went to a NASCAR race while we were there and while there is a high "hassle factor" in going to them, I LOVED IT! We had such a great time.... and it was cool to see the engines blow up and cars catch on fire (oh my...... what is happening to me?)
4. Last, but certainly not least...... Busch Graden Williamsburg is NO WDW!!

I can see already that I will have LOTS to comment on, so I'm gonna work my way backwards on stuff. Let me just start by saying that No one disappointed me here! You guys always surprise with your creativity and abililities! So.... without further adieu (sp???)...

Sam- How CUTE !!! Your DD is adorable and you can tell she loves the outfit. Where are you from in Australia??? We lived in Broken Hill for about 18 months back in 1991. A L-O-N-G time ago, buit it seems like just yesterday to us!

This is Alexis's Halloween costume. She finally decided on being Raggedy Ann!

I love this costume. How the heck did yu do that wig?

I know I showed you all a few pictures of these outfits in progress - but I thought I would show some of the finished product. Thanks for looking!

Very nice work. I just love your DD's hair cut- it looks so adorable on her. She has a very sweet look about her.
