UGGH! I'm glad it wasn't a big cut though!Thank you SOOOOOOOO much for posting this Lisa! Because I just had to run out and try it! Yep, I just caught the wrong part of a skirt in the cutting blade of the serger! UGH! You'd think after reading that, I'd be a little careful! But I've had this jumper sitting around half finished for days and just wanted to GET IT DONE. Fortunately it is only a small cut (about 1 1/2" long and no width was taken off) and fortunately it is just for DD2 who will never care and fortunately it is just a Christmas top, so it's only a One Month Outfit anyway, so I'm just stitching up the tear and hoping it is twirly enough that no one will ever notice!
They look adorable!!!Here's a picture from last year. I HATED their costumes, especially when I saw the adorable Cinderella, Belle, and Dorothy from Wizard of Oz that other girls had. They did have to have their hair up in a bun and they had to wear makeup, which they adored. Sorry, I have no idea how to resize this ridiculously large picture.

I just got home from the fabric store- (got my swap material) and I saw this big sausage like bag stuffed with fabric and it had 399 written on it. I asked the cashier is it $3.99 and she said yes- I'll take it!! I was really excited at having found such a deal. Here are a couple pics- my dh thinks I am a little nutso for being SO excited but WOW there was ALOT of stuff in there from 3 inch strips to almost full yard pieces!!!!

There was over 50 pieces in there!!! FOR $3.99, even if I use it for practicing I don't care- I'm feeling like I hit the mother load of fabric deals!!!!
OK, just for fun, here is my dd's recital costume from last year. The umbrella was their prop. Pretty big for 2.5 to 5 year olds!

That is what I was afraid of. I have a real problem with makeup on my DD(I just don't like it, neither does she), my DD has such sensitive skin and allergies. It looks like dance is not something we can do. Maybe we will try soccer![]()

I just love the tangents we go off on! Since I have no current dancers in the family, I will post a photo of DD10 when she was probably 6 in her recital costume. They danced to "Celebrate" or whatever that song is called.

The weird thing is, she still wears it sometimes when she plays dress up!
I have some pictures of my princess in the outfit I made.
Leigh begging to stop with the pictures already!

Alright I see what's happening teresajoyce!! trying to get to that 1000 mark- j/k. I hate when I get behind and want to multiquote everything but not forget what I want to say about stuff. I usually just give up and make generalizations about things- So I commend you for trying to keep up with everyone- I guess that's why your the queen of posts![]()
I wanted to add that the "fabric sausage" was from hancocks and say that is was also my first time in Hancocks- I will be returning-But they had NO princess fabric!!!! Guess I'll be making a trip to walmart or Joanns- Poor me.......
UH! What???!!!??I hope you have added a post that says that she came over to apologize and thank you! (I'm a bit behind!) I can't belive she didn't say something right away! That outfit was gorgeous!
We get there Thursday 11/29 and we'll be there through Sunday 12/9. We also have tickets for the 12/4 MVMCP. Might see you there, I'm the one with the very active three year old and three adults with British accents.My inlaws are meeting us.
Can't wait to get there. I just have to pack still. Nothing like waiting until the last possible minute.
I'll post custom pictures in the morning. I have to find my camera and my husband doesn't know where he left the other camera. I hope we find it before we leave, it's got my DD's ballet class pictures on it.
We're staying at All Star Movies.
WOO HOO!!!
These are all fantastic, but this is my very favorite!!!
Um, nothing yet. I have talked to her a couple of times and I so want to bring it up but I don't want to make her feel bad. She called me yesterday offering to take Megan to her Daisy meeting because it conflicts with the mother/son dance (she is the co-leader). So she is a nice and thoughtful person usually!
I remember that Jasmine one when you gave us a sneak peek at it! It came out great! And those Cinderella and Belle jumpers are to die for. You are going to have a great time!
Here is my frustration of the day. I went to JoAnn's to buy net for the pettiskirt. The pattern said 1 7/8 yds so that is what I bought. When I got home I couldn't get the pattern piece to fit on the net. I look back at the pattern and it says the net is 70" across. Of course, when I measure mine, it was only 54". So back to the fabric store I go to buy more net!![]()

I have some pictures of my princess in the outfit I made.
I also appliqued a t-shirt, and made a pair of red corduroy pants for her, with a little applique on them.

I wondered about this too. One the one hand I can understand the teachers wanting the kids "full" attention, on the other hand I don't think I would take it well if some stranger told me I HAD to leave the room.
What about the makeup for recitals? Do you HAVE to makeup your child?

oh I love this one it is adorable. what song did they do?OK, just for fun, here is my dd's recital costume from last year. The umbrella was their prop. Pretty big for 2.5 to 5 year olds!

I am sure if you tell them of allergies it will be ok. there is also hypoallergenic makeup out there.That is what I was afraid of. I have a real problem with makeup on my DD(I just don't like it, neither does she), my DD has such sensitive skin and allergies. It looks like dance is not something we can do. Maybe we will try soccer![]()

When I took Ireland to dance, we had a one way mirror, and also a balcony that we could sit on to watch. I stayed with her in the class for the first day, but then decided that it was her time to learn, and I spent the hour making friends with the other mothers. It was a wonderful time for both of us. Her class did the Libby Lu look. They had sparkles in her hair and some very light make up. Nothing dark. light pink eye shadow, and a little blush.
Since I have not posted any pics in a while..........![]()
This one is from SW in the Christmas overlay of Polar Express

(and since I NEVER mention him.... "Boast" warning! The suit Santa is wearing was made from a drawing my dear sweetie did!!!!!! The Elves were his too but the only picture I got of the elve was a little scary LOL (The preformer not the outfit) If anyone went to SW for the Halloween thing- you probably saw A LOT of his work.
