I've thought about getting one of those! I hate winding bobbins in the middle of a project! How much was it?

At JoAnn's the regular retail price is $34.99 but through tomorrow they are having 50% off notions again so it would be $17.49. I got mine with a 50% off coupon last weekend. I think it will come in real handy! I also HATE to have to fill a bobbin in the middle of a project. Nana

Oh my goodness! That's just funny!

 

[teresajoy]

I didn't think about that. I was thinking about snaps, but the elastic would probably be better. Thanks for the idea. If I had thought about it, I would have attached the straps to the front and put the buttons on the back. I found some adorable jewels that would have looked precious by the words! Oh well...live and learn!

Up next...an outfit for Animal Kingdom. And just so you are all aware...I'm checking out your creations and I'm not afraid to CASE them!!!

I can't wait to see the AK outfit! Those are some of my favorites!!!

Thanks!!! Brian would think I'm nuts for buying that, but he has a bunch of fishing gear that I don't get!

I wonder if I could convince him that he could use it to tie flys???

Just for Heather, here's my littlest doing her very best modeling job. I told her to let me take her picture & she started turning & tilting her head & twirling around. Too cute!

I finally got to make princess clips today.

And because it's so cute

Enjoy your little one.

I had some precious dresses made by someone I found on ebay. Her customs are amazing!

We went to a car show last night to see "Mater" so I let dd wear her Cars dress that she will also wear at MGM when we go in 2 weeks. She was so heartbroken when she realized we WEREN'T going to WDW that night.

I love the cars outfit and your daughter is soooo cute!

Hi Everyone!

Sorry I disappeared. Some of you know we have been going through some intense medical testing on our Daughter Emma 20 months... We still don't have a diagnosis from all of the testing - EEG, EMG, RNS, Muscle biopsy, MRI, urine organic acid and blood tests for conditions like Tay Sachs and Rett.. It has been such a stressful time that I haven't had the heart to sew.

Well... I'm back! We took Em to a craniosacral therapist yesterday in Montreal Canada who was on the phone with a Drs in Israel and Wisconsin before we even arrived. For the first time in a long time I have hope we can provide Em with relief and help and that maybe this can point our Dr's in the right direction.

Anyway, Since we have such a rotten time these past months I have booked the 4 of us on a Double Dip CC cruise in August.. You know what that means! More New outfits! Now I need to catch up on all of you! I can't wait!

Glad to hear from you and I will be praying for you guys and the dr's to find out what is going on! Congrats on the cruise, you guys deserve it!

I stayed up all night to finish my version of a Cindy dress! I don't even have a model because she is asleep, but I'll post some new pics later with the pants. I've got to put buttons on this one too. I don't know what it is with me and buttons, but I can never figure them out until the outfit is done!

Wow...I just noticed a ton of threads that need to be cut. Also, it's not crooked in "real life", just on my computer screen!

LOVE it! All of these outfits are making me want to make one!

It's Simplicity 3897, view D.

The Simplicity site says it's out of print, but I just got it a month or so ago. I'd bet a lot of stores still have it.



I LOVE it! I wish I had an embroidery machine. I love the quote on the back.

Thank you! I am going to look for it! It is just tooo cute!

I made the Minnie Clippie and Cinderella...

The Cinderella wasn't too hard. I was afraid at first, but it turned out really cute.
A side note...I don't think I will use the glue gun for them again. It was either burning me, or maybe it's cold in my house, because the glue dried too fast.

These look GREAT!

Here is what I have been working on......

This top gave me FITS!!!!!!!!! I kept messing up, and the purple fabric was horrid!!!!!!!! I still have to make the skirt to go with it, and I was planning to make a twirl skirt with some panels of the toile. I am not looking forward to working with the fabric for the skirt. I was going to make both dds this to wear when we eat at 1900 park fare, but IDK, can't decide. I might put some bling on the bodice, haven't decided yet. I am just glad the top is finally finished!

Well it was worth the headache! It's beautiful!

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to show you all the cinderella pillowcase dress that i made for tahlia. I CASEd it off 2CUTEKIDS, i hope thats ok. I made mine into a dress though, because tahlia is another child who doesn't like to wear pants/jeans.

It looks a little wronky on the hanger, and her face is not creased like that.

Your daughter is beautiful! ansd the dress looks amazing!

My husband had red hair when he was younger. But, now it doesn't look very red, and there isn't much of it!!! So, we get people asking us all the time where she got the red hair. But, I've never had anyone outright ask if she had a different father!!! Oh, those old ladies think they can say ANYTHING sometimes, don't they!!!! When Arminda was just born, my husband's aunt (she was in her 70's at the time)asked what we had named her. We said, "Arminda" and she said, "Well what are you going to call her?" We replied, "Arminda." To which she said rather haughtily, "Well, I guess it's YOUR decision." It was about all I could do to keep from slapping her!!! Arminda is named after my Grandpa's Mom, so the name is very special to me.

That's funny! When I told my grandmother we were naming my dd1 Rylie, she said that's a boys name! You should name her something else or call her by her middle name! I said well that's what we decided on and she said well I don't like it! Older ladies do tend to speak their mind! But I guess when you get to that age you've earned the right!

LOVE the clippies, but your little one is just tooooooo cute!

Hi Everyone!
I finished the appliqued top that I started today. I wanted to add a ruffle to the bottom, but I found it would have been too long. I have to hand it to LisaZoe, I don't know how she does the faces so beautifully.
Anyway, here are 4 shameless photos.

Stunning! You did a fantastic job!

I stayed up all night to finish my version of a Cindy dress! I don't even have a model because she is asleep, but I'll post some new pics later with the pants.

Hoping to get mine started! All of these have turned out beautiful!

Too funny! Don't you know it's not a good idea to make a pregnant woman laugh that hard? Bad things happen!

Love all of the Valentine's Day outfits they are fantastic!

Teresa, what negative things did people say about the redhead's hair? I would kill to be a redhead! DH is a redhead but he doesn't have much left either! I have had people ask "strange"/rude questions about my girls curly hair and questioning their heritage. As if it matters or is any of their business. And you're right, a lot of times it seems to be a little old lady! There was once a couple in Steak 'n Shake that made me so uncomfortable with their loud comments (not addressing me but to each other in a very loud voice) and stares that we left. I'm not a shrinking violet and I wanted to say something but my girls didn't need to hear their mother go off on them, especially since they were oblivious to the comments in the first place. Makes me mad just thinking about it!

T-beri, sorry to hear that you've all been sick. We've been sick around here too. DH had the stomach flu (lots of fun side effects but he lost 6 lbs last week with it ). Claire (DD2) has had a runny nose for about a month but last week she kind of had a cough and it turned a little yellow so I took her to the doctor. She never had a fever and her mucus was always clear so I thought she would kick it on her own. Of course, she had a double ear infection and because I had "let this go on for too long", she gets to do two courses of antibiotics, a prescription antihistamine/decongestant and mucinex. Lovely! I simply adore what antibiotics do to babies and toddlers! I can't even begin to tell you how many times we've changed her today. I have been stuffy for about 3 weeks now and I see the doctor on Thursday and I'm positive I've got a sinus infection so hopefully they'll give me something to get rid of it. We are using a lot of Puffs around here! Hopefully your family will get better!

For all of you frigid, snowbound people I'm jealous. It's been cold here in Dallas (for here anyway) but I want a good deep freeze! I'm jealous and missing winter (something I never thought I would say!). Enjoy it!

Oh Goodness what precious children! Love the dresses today and cute hair clips too! Wow! You all made my night.

I finished my Cindy dress/top "when the dress is too short " and I still havent got pictures of it. Definately tomorrow! I did go to our Joann's Fabrics on Friday which is a 45 min drive. It should be called Joann's Flannels. They had 100's of bolts of flannel fabric taking up half the store and about 6 bolts of old Disney fabric. I went there in hopes of getting the new Children Around the World. Nothing...they had a few left over bolts and thats it. I was almost in tears. That's the bad news.

Now for the good news: I did find a low shank ruffler (only $14) and bought that. Soooo....I had a blast trying to figure that out today. I wasnt entirely sure I bought the right one and I had no idea what was the front and back. Somehow I studied it long enough to figure out where it should attach. Then I realized that part of it should go over the needle bolt thingy and I raised the presser foot and attached it there too and whaa laaaa...I got it on. I played around with the settings on some scraps. What a blast! It is fascinating. I set it to do three stitches and a deep pleat. I love it!!! I had to figure out to separate the fabric from the ruffle (one goes under and one goes on top). Amazing instrument and hopefully it will really speed things up. Ruffling by hand is soooo time consuming! Tomorrow I plan on getting right to work on a peasant top and ruffled jeans for my DD9. Plus I will take some pics. Sorry for the long post but I am so excited to finally have a ruffler!!!!!

That's odd anyone would get comments about something like that. How rude! Brianna had a little boy in her class eho had the reddest hair ever, and both of his parents were brunettes. I always just assumed there were redheads in their family line.

I used to get comments that ticked me off when I was pregnant with Spencer. DH (Davis) is an identical twin. His brother got transferred to London, and had to leave his apartment 3 months before he left, so he moved back in with us for the three months. He left a week before I had Spencer. The three of us would go places together a lot, both so Davis and his brother could spend time together and in anticipation of a kd changin gour lives. Very often, I would get snide comments asking me if I knew which of the twins was the father. I'd sometimes get nasty and answer, "neither, why?"

I got a few much worse comments when I was alone because I wore crazy hippie clothes, so a lot of people assumed I was an unwed drug-user, but the twin ones always irked me the most, because they were nasty.

THAT made me laugh!!!

They would say things about how cute he was, too bad about the hair! And, "Don't you just hate red hair." It was nuts.

I hope you guys get feeling better!

WOO HOO on the ruffler!!! Make sure you check out the free tutorial from YCMT. I think you might have to sign up for the newsletter to get it, but it is really informative.

Half of us paid NO attention in home-ec! You can do it!

Actually, I paid lots of attention in home-ec, but it certainly isn't a requirement!

aaah on the subject of stupid comments from people, I could write a book!!!!!

I have had LOTS of people "comment" on my DD and her origins (can't imagine why, my family SWEARS she looks just like me when I was little ). She came up with her own way of handling them (since she refused to let mommy slap them in head ). When a stranger walks up and asks me if she is adopted, she interupts and says "No, I adopted Mommy". The stunned silence is usually long enough for us to get away

I do have a friend with a large international family who got tired of all the questions and when someone asked who the father of one of her kids was she said (with a straight face) gee I don't remember it was a loong night.

OH my! Your daughter is so cute!!!!!!!!!!! I miss when mine were this age.

Well it was worth the headache! It's beautiful!

Thank you! I was afraid that for a while I was going to have to scrap it! I cut the bodice WAY too big, and I had to keep taking out the seams, the fabric kept fraying....... you name it, it happened!


I love all the Cinderella dresses! They are all turning out so cute! And the cars dress! I was thinking of making my DD6 one. I did buy some Hannah Montanna fabric at WalMart today. I am debating what to make.

I LOVE these answers! It is amazing how blunt people can be in their remarks and questions. It really leaves me bewildered at times. I love it when kids can put people in line - that's the greatest!

That's just rude. Some people need to just keep their noses in their own business. I have a friend that has some very red hair. He is the only one in his family with red hair, but he is the spitting image of his dad. You can't tell just by looking at a child's hair. I love your answer to the twin's comment.

I had some precious dresses made by someone I found on ebay. Her customs are amazing!

We went to a car show last night to see "Mater" so I let dd wear her Cars dress that she will also wear at MGM when we go in 2 weeks. She was so heartbroken when she realized we WEREN'T going to WDW that night.

This dress is adorable. My DD wants a Cars dress and oddly enough a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle dress also. I need to find the material for it again.
