This was my first dress. It had bows at the shoulders, but DD lost them at school!

2nd dress: Valentines Day

DD thinks she is a model - I can't get her to stand up straight!!

Love the sunflowers & the polka dots! And that Valentine dress has some major twirl!
 
The sunflowers and polka dots is my favorite one I have done so far. I just finished cutting out some Princess fabric for short set.

I need some help from posters in the Atlanta area. I really want some Minnie Dot fabric, but I cannot find it anywhere!! I have looked in Gainseville, Hobby Lobby and Alpharetta - JoAnn's. It is not at any Walmart I have been to either. Anybody found it in this area?

Great outfits--and maybe a future career for your DD!;)

Been looking for over 2 years now and never seen any, EVER! DH
works at walmart and is trained to walk through the fabric dept to look for me and never, he even asked them to order him a bolt. Nothing.

Nothnig at Joanne's, Hobby Lobby, nothing!



Elisa, I gotta say I don't think I would let Ireland go! If you could be a chaperone and be with her that would be different, but no way, no how, especially at a water park. There is no way to be up top with kids and down below. Sorry!

Cute stuff. Jenna thinks she is a model too.:rotfl:
That's a tough one. Do the parks have life vests they allow? If so, I'd talk with the camp director AND Ireland. Make it clear that she MUST wear a vest at all times if she wants even one toe in the water. If life vests are not an option to get from the park, I'd keep her home on those days...maybe put her in swim lessons on days she's home? I passionately believe that every child needs to know how to swim WELL and not depend on floaties or life vests. Those things can slip off, buckles or not. They give people a false sense of security. It would be good for Miss Ireland to do swim lessons. I wish I lived in Florida! I was a life guard all through college and I taught three "Polliwog" classes a week! All my kids passed on to "Minnows"!!! I'd teach both girls to swim in no time flat!::yes::
You can come here and teach Jenna how to swim. She sorta let me teach her while we were in FL. She has a fear of water and boats. You should have seen the fear in her eyes when she found out Peter Pan was a "boat" ride. She had to ask the CM at the beginning of the line what the ride was all about before she would even get in line.

I'm not in Atlanta so I don't know if you still have a Hancock close by or not, but that's where the big Minnie dot is right now. Wal-Mart had some last year around Halloween, but not since.

Last week the JoAnns at Northpoint mall area had some red & white polka dot fabric. It was the large dot fabric I believe. They had several bolts. This was late last week. Hope you can find what you are looking for.

Everyone here makes such beautiful clothing. I'm a waaaaaayyyyy novice at things, but I've even been inspired to try a few things... I just need the time to do it now.

Another CarlaC tester here! The pattern was (as one would expect from a pattern of hers!) clear and easy to follow. Everything came together perfectly. I love how it is lined, so no rough seams on the inside. I feel like a professional seamstress with this one. :rotfl:

A Hawaiian-inspired bowling shirt--perfect for 'Ohana maybe? ;) I think at the very least, we need to go to the Poly and take pictures with this. I have to make DD a matching a-line now...

Ooooooh, I really like this! Where did you get the fabric?? (Please don't say Hancock's 'cause they don't ship to Canada and the closest location is too far away!!!)

Any idea when the pattern will be available for purchase???

If you are ok with ordering online I have found it at Hancock.com for $4.99 a yard. This fabric is the brighter red with the larger dots on it.

and I also found it here at FabricHound.com it is $7.66 a yard (you buy it by the half yard. This is the fabric that is by Michael Miller. It is the darker red fabric with the medium size dots.

Just wanted to say hi and show ya'll I have not dropped off the face of the earth again. It is 100 degreestoday and Our Ac broke! So, we tried to keep cool all day and someone came and worked on it all day and we think it is working, but it takes a while to cool your house down when it is 100 degrees outside!

I love everyone's creations! The minnie outfit is so cute, and those new shirts are great! They will be all the buzz when the patterns go for sale! I know I saw more great things, but it is too hot upstairs in the puter room so I am heading downstairs!

see everyone again soon!

Oh no..hopefully your ac is fixed by now, and the house is all cooled down now.


I like the third option - with the lining. My ds has been wanting that fabric for a while!

I am just sick today- my brothers friends went out in a paddle boat on friday night and the boat tipped over and one of the friends is now missing. They think he probably drowned. But have not been able to find him. The friend didn't tell anyone til the next day- thought he had swam to the other side as they had been talking in the water after the boat flipped. The boys are all 18 and My heart is just broken for all of them!! Of course they were not wearing life jackets, it was not their boat and they may been drinking. So So So sad!!! Please keep them in your prayers.
Sorry to bring you all down. But I wanted to get all your positive thoughts and prayers out there for him and his family and friends. Thank You!! :hug:

I am so sorry...will keep them in my prayers. How terrible!

We LOVE JORD too!!!!!

I finished this dress yesterday. This was the dress I started from the 80's pattern. I gave up trying to do it their way and did it MY way LOL.

THat is so adorable!!!


Just my opinion, but it does look a little on the short side.

1. What does one do in a heat wave???....

Looks like a great day!!


My ds would love to see Cookie Monster and Elmo! Cute picture


That looks great!!

Tomorrow is a big day at our house....:worried:
Alexis is beginning pre K...it's a 10 hour day, and I'm worried about her. I feel like it's much too long for that age, but that's what I get for putting her in the summer program. Also Ireland is going to summer camp for the first time. It's a day camp, and it's also for 10 hours a day. She will be going to Universal, some local springs, Wet N Wild, bowling, movies, ice skating...etc...she will have a blast...but poor Lexie...:( I made her a new outfit for the occasion, but I want to cry every time I look at it...:( The house will be VERY quiet tomorrow...:worried:

Wow..that is a really long day for pre-K. My dd and ds are going to a summer program, but it is only a 4 hour day for two days a week.

To all the CarlaC shirt tester...I love all those shirt! I can't wait to buy the pattern so I can make some for my ds (and maybe dd too!)
 
So the packing has begun!:cool1: Because it takes so long for my computer to upload...we will be doing these a few at a time!:badpc:

These are the kids outfits for next Wednesday...yes...I have each day tagged properly! :thumbsup2 We will be eating at Chef Mickey's.


This is for the littlest, DS4.

Now...back to packing and more sewing...panic!:scared1:
 
Here is Katie in her dress

Cute!

One question for everyone...I'm not comfortable sending her to the "water places" because she's a non-swimmer....should I just bite the bullet and send her anyway, and hope they watch her, or should I just keep her home on those days. They say they will be taking a swim test but Ireland can fool you. She can swim the length of the pool, but the minute she's tired she doesn't head for the wall, she just goes under and doesn't call for help...:scared1: I'm worried about her going to places like Wet N Wild, and going down the big water slides and not being able to swim at the bottom...What would you all do? Ireland does have a floatie vest that she loves and I'm comfortable with her swimming anywhere in that, but they aren't allowed at the water parks with her group...:(
I wouldn't let her go.

CUTE!!! Love the Minnie beach & lemons outfits too!

Just wanted to jump on quickly and ask for some prayers for my little Rylie! She has been sick since Wed. and is getting worse!:sick: :scared1: I have a call in to her pediatrician, so I am waiting to hear back! If you guys don't mind sending some prayers and good thoughts our way! Thanks!Mindy
Prayers for Rylie! Hope she's feeling better soon!!!:wizard:

Tuesday: Last day of school for kids - have to be there for awards and such.
Wednesday: Do all of my Father in law's laundry, lable and pack for him. Start my clothes packing, last trip to grocery store.
Thursday: DH has to handle a complaint for work (on his day off!:headache: ) Go to nursing home to finish paperwork for FIL. Fininsh packing. Take FIL to doctor...ask him for meds list for the 5th time:headache:
Friday: Take dog to kennel, FIL to nursing home (TV, Oxygen, luggage, me and three kids! :headache: :headache: :headache: )...come home, pack car, leave when DH gets off work at noon:lmao: ...will never happen...he will get caught up in some drama I am sure!!! :(

:moped: We plan on driving half way on Friday then the rest on Saturday and staying offsite and maybe go to DTD Saturday night with the kids.

So...the short of it...that ticker thing lies!!!! I should have put in the date I am leaving...then I wouldn't be like this now:scared1:

Great outfits! Great model!!!
 
Aww love the CM outfits!

Hey for those of you that buy and sell on "other places". I bought 2 customs from a lady they were supposed to be ready and shipped a week ago Friday. I emailed her to be sure they were shipped and she was taking longer than expected no biggie. Well she said they woudl be out Tues or Wed. I had emailed her back a question on Monday and never recieved a response (had nothing to do with this shipment). Friday I still had not heard from her so I sent her an email touching base and that I had another seller get some wierd name from paypal I was making sure that she had the right name and address. So I hve not heard from her again. So my question to you ladies how long is a reasonable amount of time before I email her again? I know Friday to Monday is not long but I am just frustrated because it was supposed to be sent out last week and she has yet to let me know if that happened or not. :(
 
im alive. I mad it. Had to stay an extra day and night at the hospital. I feel icky and have not checked out al the new creations. Im tired, dizzy, and in a lot of pain. I have 56 staples from a inch above my belly button down tto my va jay jay. Just wanted to say hi.
 
Hey...looks like we will be there at the same time. When are you guys going to be there? My ds also has the shorts made out the same material (the one for your ds for Chef Mickey!) I need to start packing soon!!!!

We will have our first day in the parks on Sunday. We are going to Hollywood Studios the first day, MK on Monday, Epcot Tuesday and the rest is kids choice!:dance3: They will decide where they want to go. Can't wait! :cool1:

Where are you staying? We will be at POP.

If you already paid and she has taken way longer than she said she would than I wouldn't have any problems sending her a thousand emails until you get a response from her. Don't wait too long though because Paypal has a time limit for filing the item not received dispute.

Glad to hear that you are ok. Take extra good care of yourself. :hug:

Where are you staying? We will be at POP.

We will be at Animal Kingdom Lodge...we check in Saturday. We start our drive Friday morning (from Houston, TX) and stay the night somewhere, and then hopefully make it to AKL Sat by noon. We will be in Epcot on Sunday, Hollywood Studios Monday, MK on Tuesday, and Thursday, AK on Wednesday, Friday we may do DTD, and the kids will probably want to go back to MK that day, and also back to MK on Saturday morning as well. I think I need to go pick up some ziplock bags...what a great idea!!

We may drop by Hollywood Studios on Sunday if DH decides that he wants to go check out Star wars weekend!

Star Wars is the reason we added an extra day. My kids watched the movies for the first time about a month ago...so we HAD to add an extra day!

The ziplocs do seem like they will save me time...I am putting everything they need for each day in the bag. i got the idea somewhere on here...just really seemed like a great idea to me! Saves time at night when we will be laying stuff out for the next day, I hope!

You must be a little loopy, I don't think your aloud to say the V word on the DIS:rotfl2: :rotfl: :lmao: :rotfl2:

I'm laughing so hard I can't stop coughing... STOP IT!!!

Glad you made it home safely, hope you heal quickly.
