Hi everyone... I just wanted you all to know that Ireland's had an accident. She needs a little pixie dust sent her way. She will need my care for a while, so I'm not sure when I will be back online. We just arrived home from the hospital, and I have to tell you....it was absolutely heartbreaking. Hearing that your child has been in an accident is just about the worst thing... I'm tearing up now, just thinking about how terrified I was..I won't go into detail, but to make a story short, while my Mom was watching her, and I was at school, she took out her bike, and had a terrible fall. She wasn't wearing a helmet. We live at the top of a hill, on a few acres, so thankfully she fell in the driveway and not in the street, but she lost consciousness and didn't know where she was or who she was. My mother had to carry her into the house. She wound up with a broken thumb, split lip, huge road rash area on her cheek and chin, which is really swollen, huge lump on her head, a concussion, and fluid in her elbow, that is supposed to go away. So my little darling will be out of commission for a while. Take care all and say a little prayer for her, and I think Santa will be buying her elbow pads, knee pads and a helmet..and maybe put the training wheels back on...
Here's a picture of the Christmas stripwork jumper that I made dd. The strap are just safety pinned for now...I haven't decided if I want to attempt button holes or just put sew on snaps on it... it is a size 5, and I thought it would be roomy on my dd, but it really isn't all that big. I think I should make a size 6 next time...anyone knows if the sizing runs slightly small.
This is the third thing that I ever sewn...and I know it is not perfect, especially the gathers but I don't think I can take it apart anymore..the fabric are already fraying!!
to CastleCreations. I hate that your daughter is hurt. MY family will send prayers your way.

for you and two for her. 
to help 
and the cake is because cake heals all. Cake can do wonders. I am sorry for her accident and I do hope and prey for a speey recovery.
on many occasion i too have had a craptacular sewing machine , pattern or fabricor maybe it was just me
It is just crap no guid lines. It gets jammed up sewing cotton fabric. I hate it I think my grandma found it in the broken bargin bin at the dollar store. Someone had told me to ask for a new one for xmas but thats how I got this one last year. I love my grams but I think she didn't think i was serious about sewing. My hubby is going to be a loss for words come tax refund time if you ladys know what I mean. Atleast i am not the one.
CuteOkay spill what is your secret ? Do you have a sewing fairy? because everytime i get on here you are posting 1 or 2 outfits.
I would like to meet this sewing fairy. I have a few projects for her.
Awww it doesn't work the more you post the more they post and we never move up on the list.
Now this is starting to make me angryWhy is it that we are so worried about aip port security but it is ok to infect 50,000 people with frozen pizza and kill our kids with something labled as water? What are these people thinking?
Please add me to the get well card list.
I hear you I was left out also. I think HeatherSue is playing favorites.
No kidding I am starting to think instead of multi quoting this whole thing I should have just done seperate ones to cheat.
ok, here two more I finished today. the lighting was horrible tonight! Really bad, but now she is super grumpy and in a bath thank goodness!
I have both of those Christmas fabrics but I have to finish some Scrapbooking projects before I can start my Christmas stuff.

What a great job! Your DD is a cutie even when she is grumpy!
I am not going then but....are you a Tour Guide Miker??? I would highly suggest joining if not....worth every penny!
This is the problem with dealing with college kids (who play the roles)...they can be unpredictable or maybe she was pms'ing...
Iam going to make the peasant top from ycmt and was wondering if any one had made this and if so do you have any advice before I get started? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Well, I am off to bed, tomorrow my sweet baby will be ONE YEAR OLD! I'm sad that my babies are growing up!
GOOD NIGHT ALL!
Happy 1st Birthday Little One!!
So sorry to hear this terrible news. I'm sending you, Ireland and your family prayers. I remember doing the same thing when I was little. My parents were due to come back from vacation and I was showing off how I could ride my bike down the middle of the street really fast. Well, I lost concentration and balance and knocked my silly little head on the pavementIt was the first of sevaral concussions and crashes I have made.
Wow it looks just wonderful!!!! I dont see anything wrong with the ruffles and I love all of the prints together!Here's a picture of the Christmas stripwork jumper that I made dd. This is the third thing that I ever sewn...and I know it is not perfect, especially the gathers but I don't think I can take it apart anymore..the fabric are already fraying!!
Great job

THANKS!
Okay, so I got a ruffler foot, (actually taking it back today because I got the wrong one..grrrr). I've used the baste and pull thread to gather method before which STINKSand was looking forward to ruffling with this before I attached it....can I do that?
Two years ago I found some lime green grinch fabric that I made the girls some little sundresses out of...I may have some left but it wouldn't me much, couple of strips and an applique...MAYBE. IF I can find it, I'd be happy to send it your way...it's definitely NOT Christmas fabric.
OMG we have like a ton of these!!! My girls just love this toy, we've made probably twenty things out of them....Thank you for posting this...now they have to go in the trash.
Hubby is coming back in town today, leaving again Sunday morning....I feel pretty certain I won't be here alot till after he leaves...(like you'll be waiting or something...ha.) He's got a couple of crazy weeks so when he is home we'll be spending a lot of time together. I don't think cruisin' the boards is technically "quality time".
If I sound totally out of the loop here, but I just recently stumbled upon this thread and would love to learn how to do all of this spectacular stuff.
But first off, how do you decide which outfits to where....where? I mean, do you just browse the photos on here and decide what patterns you like and then find fabric that would go with it, or are there certain prints you decide for the kiddos to where at each park/character meal etc. ahead of time, due to your ADR's iteneraries??????? The photos(which really is my real passion-scrapbooking/photos etc.) look soooooooooooo awesome when everyone wears coordinating outfits, and I saw in one photo the Dads/Grandpas also blend nicely by just wearing the same color scheme! I am soooo impressed.
We are doing in Dec. and it is my 10th trip (I think) but first expanded- extended family trip. I want us to ROCK like you guys!
bday:
THANK YOU!
Okay, I was finally able to upload pics. Here are two I made for DD4:
Donald Duck-her favorite:
And Minnie mouse:
Don't know yet how I feel about the Minnie but she absolutely loves them both so I guess that's all that matters! And YES!, she thinks she is a model!
