Cindee
Hello everyone, sorry haven't been around much this last week, and there is a lot of catching up for me to do!!!!
All of the creations are great! I am going to upload a pic later of my two DDs in their dresses I made them. I'm swamped with work today.I can't comment on all the cool stuff that's been posted today. Her expression is priceless, is she trying to model like Cinderella? I looove this outfit!
Fantastic job!! The light blue is so true to original Cinder, I just adore it!
I've been watching those pillowcases in Wally & think the Tink would be fun. It'd be just a tad too big for my niece. Dh would kill me if I tried to pull some of the male modeling girl's clothes that goes on around here!
I'm thinking of a way to possibly make a flannel nightgown like Tom's Leigh, for myself.
I already have Mary Engelbreit pjs to make for a scrapbook retreat in February.Also, I have this retro I Love Lucy apron pattern on my mental to do list. My dream is to make it with a "working" Cinderella on the front like Heather Sure did for Tessa in October. That'll be my Happy BDay gift to myself. This will be my last year celebrating before hitting the big 40 & claiming I'm in my 30's for the next decade or so...
Oh, they are fun!
Last year was the 1st time I went & I cried my eyes out all the way there. (I'd never left my kids before) I'm looking forward to it this year.
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but I've been trying to post for an hour and the page wouldn't load. Anyway, I need your help. I am looking at these shirts on disneyshopping.com. But, they don't tell you if they are junior's sizes or women's sizes. It seems I always guess wrong. Last time I got an XL that was huge and an XL that was tiny. So, I was wondering if anyone knows how these specific shirts run.
Cute!Oh, they are fun!
I actually am going to 2 different ones, with 2 different crews. The 1st will be in TX Hill country with church friends. The 2nd will be near Canton TX with some scrapbooking sistas.
Wanna come? I think they may be booked up, but I'm not sure.
Hey, we should have a DIS boutique retreat! We could have a weekend getaway, just us girls (Oh, & Tom?) up all night laughing & giggling away. We can have chick flik marathons & do each other's hair. Than "whip up" a few fashions & have a runway show! Sounds fun!!!! I think I know the perfect location & it all began with a Mouse!!!!

Well, my DH leaves early tomorrow morning for ORLANDO, without me 
He's going with a friend to the Capital One Bowl. I can't believe he didnt bring me and just drop me off at Disney whilst he goes to the game. 
Here's my DD9:
All of these adorable girl outfits on this thread are wonderful!!! I would be so broke, b/c I don't sew. I would have to pay someone to make them all!! LOL!!
you girls have some fantastic talent!!! I guess if I ever have a girl, I'll have to take up sewing.
Guess what I just did! I ordered an embroidery machine!
OMG!! Checking out her Cinderella charm bracelet.
At least she had fun twirling!
Just because...
the outfit!
Well, on a brighter note, I decided to start making appliques that can be sewed onto outfits whenever it is that we are able to get back to Disney. It takes such a long time to do them (for me a whole day). I figure if I can make 20 or 30 different ones, then I can plan the outfits to go with them when the time comes. For now they are sewed on a coordinating base fabric which I will have to trim and then zigzag around it on the real fabric down the line. So I started with my first one the other day...it's Ariel! Hopefully, with practice, I will get better at doing them.
And finally, my daughter's friend/family, invited her to go along with them to see High School Musical On Ice. I didnt have time to make a custom. However the girls wore matching tees and bracelets!
She had a really good time!
How dare he not take you to Disney! Love your applique. It looks really fantastic. And your daughter, GORGEOUS! She is sooo cute in her outfit!
Let me try this one again.BEAUTIFUL!
Now my Leigh wants one! Thanks alot!
OMG!!
The tickets are $15 each but it was filmed at the concert here in Salt Lake City, so taking DD10 will help ease the guilt that I did not take her to the actual concert. We couldn't go because we were in Disneyland that weekend, yet I still feel guilt We'll have to do a TR. Misty and Wendy can write it (should we invite Misty's MIL? ) and I'll be in charge of photos (that way I can stay out of them ) The tickets for the "good seats" and the popular times were selling fast, but I believe there are still plenty of tickets.
Okay, I do love these people (DHs sister, BIL and 2 of their daughters.) I even often enjoy their company, but it was just not a good time and they never even asked us if they could stay. Now I'm thinking about Heather's uninvited dog and I'm thinking this may top that DH's OTHER sister did leave us a message on the answering machine to let us know that their sister and her family would be coming in a couple of days to stay with us. That was it. Okay, had to vent a little. I'm just glad to have my craft room back and now I can sew again and have my own computer back. I have already finished Lily's Valentine's dress. It turned out pretty cute. I'll post pictures when I can get it on her. I did manage to get photos of her wearing the (famous pillowcase) Cinderella jumper I made. She was not very cooperative. I can't tell you how many photos I had to take! And she's still sticking out her tongue in the best one. Dolly is lying next to her.

You just upload at least 1 minute video reviews of products you already have in your house (DVDs, computer games, appliances, etc...). They pay $10 for some reviews, $5 for some, and $2 for others (I don't waste my time on $2 reviews). You just record yourself talking about the stuff and then upload it to the website. They paypal you the money at the end of the month! If you want more info, PM me and I can give you some tips.
I am so flattered that you want to sorta-CASE my working Cinderella!!I already have Mary Engelbreit pjs to make for a scrapbook retreat in February.
I love your idea of putting it on a retro apron!I ordered the pink Tink one. I like all of them, so it was hard to decide.
I would SOO love to do that!!Hey, we should have a DIS boutique retreat! We could have a weekend getaway, just us girls (Oh, & Tom?) up all night laughing & giggling away. We can have chick flik marathons & do each other's hair. Than "whip up" a few fashions & have a runway show! Sounds fun!!!! I think I know the perfect location & it all began with a Mouse!!!!
I was having the same problem this morning, it wasn't your computer!I got so frustrated last night and this morning with the board. It would load and kept crashing. I couldnt tell if it was my puter or the forum.
I think the womens and juniors sections are separate on that site??? Though with such cute hip sayings I bet they are juniors.
Hey, I love your new siggy pic!!!
You didn't have to tell us it's Ariel! That applique looks good!! What a great idea to do them ahead of time and then attach them to the outfit.
How lovely that they just called to let you know you would have a family staying with you! But, did they pee orOkay, I'm back. My "surprise" company left today
There is also a black one with Snow White on it that's super-cool! I already own the black hooded sweater like this with Snow White on it, though. I knew you'd like these shirts. I thought of you the first time I saw them! I don't know why. Oh, maybe because they're t-shirts. Hardy-har-har.
That and, clearly, we both have excellent taste.
