I'm just checking in to say hi to everyone! I've had company and will continue to have company until Thursday so my time here will be limited, but I wanted to stop in and say hello. I'm about 20 pages behind, I can't imagine how many I'll be behind by the time Thursday comes!
 
Okay, the Disboutique fabric swap is under way!! If anyone is intrested, here's a link.

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1623890

We're figuring out all the details. We'll have at least 1 category for yardage instead of the FQ's or squares.

Here's the link to the Disney Fabric Exchange:

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1623890

No sign ups yet. We're just getting the interest "out there" to not bog down THIS thread, ya know?

Be thinking of what categories you may want. Like Girls, Boys, All. Or a more specific category like Princesses or Pixar, or Classic Characters, etc. So we can do categories.

:yay: I'm WAYYY too excited for this!


Very funny!! Great minds... The fabric swap is coming along. We should be able to figure out categories tomorrow. There's always more room!! The more that sign up, the more fabric you'll get in the swap! So far we have 20 people intrested!!
 
We went to the pumpkin patch last week-end. I know, I know I think I violated some sort of time rule by not posting pics fast enough, but I've actually been sewing this week. :goodvibes Anyway, here they are.

This one is actually from the school trip. Yes, we went on Thursday with the school & then to a different patch Saturday as a family. I know we're a little nuts, but there were much better pics ops at the second one. :rolleyes1

Ok, so I finished the thanksgiving outfit, I think. Here is the 3 peices finished. I was thinking of still adding the apron but it might make it way tooo busy. a sash for the shirt and pants combo probably and maybe appliqueing GIVE THANKS on the bodice. I don't know, want to start on xmas already so I may just leave it the way it is..

Soooo cute...I love the outfits and the little "pumpkin bear" is adorable too! We did several fall things....including two hayrides and several pumpkin patch things too. :flower3: Great job on the outfits!
 
They are such cute girls!


These are great, Deann!! I just love that fabric! I am still having problems getting Tessa's pumpkin dress pictures onto the computer-GRRR!!!

THanks! I think they are cute, too, but I may be a little predjudiced! haha!

I also agree, Love the outfits, Deann! So cute!

And the cinderella dress is awesome!!!!! My daughter would love it! You put a lot of hard work into it, and you can tell, because it turned out great!

Thanks! I wish I had a good pic of dd4 & 'bat bear'. She's holding him in the first pic, but he's upside down. :confused3 I got them last year when Hallmark was having a special 3 cards = $5 bear.
 
I want in on the fabric exchange, I'll go over and post on there in a minute.

I'm still a little loopy from the anesthesia and the vicodin but my oral surgery went pretty well. All 7 teeth are out (apparently both bottom wisdom teeth didn't want to come out) I feel a little beat up, the bottom is more sore than the top. I didn't get any implants today, those will come later. I did end up with two bone graphs.

Here's my new soapbox. Regardless of how afraid you are of the dentist, see him regularly not once every 20 years. Don't be me.

I don't feel nearly as bad as I expected. Hurts far less than having a baby. He was a sweetie and gave me some laughing gas before he even stuck in the iv for sedation.

Barring any complications I have a feeling I'll be feeling better in the next three days. I am, however, already sick of mashed potatoes. I want :cake:!
 
Ok all -
I wanted to post pics of the last minute outfit I made Emma to wear to the Hannah concert tonight.....

Oh my heck!!!! I can't believe it!!!!

I haven't been online since this was posted, but I just can't believe that she steeled your design!! :scared1: And she is still the little sister that you adore???? WOW!!!!! You are really, really a special kind of girl TJ!!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

OH, ouch 7 teeth? I had one pulled about 6 months ago.Ouch, and I had two wisdom teeth done, or was it 4? when I was 19 (right before my wedding, bad idea.) I hope it all feels better soon. :hug:

Oh my heck!!!! I can't believe it!!!!

Ok, well, truth be told, what happened was, we were at Walmart, I saw the pumpkin fabric and said, "Oh this is such cool fabric! Wouldn't this make a cool Cinderella outfit!?" So, actually, the fantastic masterpiece of a dress was all out of Heather's very creative mind! I just planted the seed of an idea, she made it blossom into a beutiful flower!

I am so sappy that everytime someone praises one of Heather's creations, I get so proud!!

Don't mind her sunglasses she thinks she needs to wear them because mommie wears them she is very clingy these days.:confused3 Oh and by the way do you love the new art work on the front door that they blamed on their big sister but I can tell it's at the twins level and not megans. We have been makeing there hight on the door and they saw me do it this morning to megan and they thought it was ok to do it with crayon. I forgot to clean it up till i saw the picture.

Sorry this is blurry I wanted you to see the wings that took me and entire weekend to make.:scared1:

Ok finally something to share. Sammie twin b modeled for mommie and My hubby got a few pics before having to take it all off to eat dinner. She does have bloomers under her dress and I made the shoes with the help of one of teresajoys wonderful links. I promise I will have better pics of the both of them and big sister for you first thing Thursday.
 
So Cute- Where did you get those shoes?? :thumbsup2 I looked all over for tink shoes- and finally ended up with pink beaded shoes- Not really what I wanted but the only thing I could find that I even liked a little. My dd is in a size 4 so she is between the walking and the not walking variety, I don't know if that made a difference- They have lots of 3's & 5's I couldn't find very many 4's. Can you tell I'm still a little obsessed with the dang shoes!!! I just have to let that one go I just don't have any more time to be searching high and low for tink shoes!!!! Ok I fell better now- Off to try and get some sleep. "Good Night Neverland"- I love Hook- that movie has been on alot lately?!?!
 
LOVE IT ! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!





It's finally done!! I'd like to thank fortheluvofpooh for getting the sparkly brown fabric for me. Without her, this dress would have no bottom ruffle. Thank you to all of you wonderfuly sweet women who went to your local WalMart in search of it, too! :grouphug: You're all so great! The outdoor pictures are sort of fuzzy and I don't know why. :confused3 I'd like to point out that this was my first zipper. If you don't look too closely, it doesn't look too bad! I still think Cinderella looks both surprised and suspicious...

I like the idea of a fabric exchange. I would love to join.

I am in a "coupon train" that works well. Maybe some of those principles will work for this. It could be like a "fabric train" :cool1: A cool name helps :) My current train has no name, but the first one I was in was "The Buck to Blue Choo Choo" since we mail from Ohio to Michigan and back. My DH thinks I am nuts!

Our train works like this:
We have a list of about 10 people. The first person on the list mails to #2, #2 to #3, #3 to #4 and so on. Eventually the train goes full circle and everyone gets a little bit from each person. What we do is add whatever coupons (in this case we would use fabric cut to a specified size) you do not need. The person who receives your envelope would take what they wanted and replace what they took with at least the same amount. We all mail on Tuesdays so everyone receives an envelope around the same day each week.
To start the train we all mailed to the person below us on the list the first week. We also check in on Tuesday after we mail, so your partner knows to expect something.

After a few weeks it was really fun to see what was coming. I always look forward to my envelope. I usually only get bills, so getting coupons in the mail makes me happy. It doesn’t take much to excite me :laughing: My DH teases me that I am a cheap date since I always have a coupon.

Anyway I think something like this will work if someone could come up with the details and be in charge of the list.

That sounds like a really good idea, how many time would it go "around" the mailing list of participants?
What if you don't have much fabric? I only have 2 or 3 choices and minnie dot is one! :confused3
Would you only mail this out once a week ... that would take forever.
But I do think this would definatally work out.
